China is plenty happy with stealing ridiculous amounts of IP and/or immediately copying and selling identical products. It’s already factored in.

I'm not talking about trademark copyright, I'm talking about the inevitable war when they finally build up their little nuclear umbrella they've been building and invades Taiwan.

Every single business with heavy investments in China is going to have those investments seized and they're going to have to write down all of those assets to zero.

However many billions of dollars all these companies have invested in China, from Apple to furniture manufacturers to Walmart to everywhere, is going to have an instant multi-million or even multi-billion dollar hit to their bottom line.

And they're going to lose access to all of that production. Going to lose access to it for at least a decade or two.

We're not ready

the CCP are definitely using the same notes as the Kremlin.. when things get bad economically inside China, they will get belligerent and start doing the same thing..
