Will China’s Actions in Taiwan Lead to War?

China is Likely to Invade Taiwan – and It Could Lead to War   [company_logo](               Hello Fellow American! [Things are getting scary…]( China seems intent on taking over Taiwan and most of the world is intent on stopping them. It’s looking more and more like conflict will be unavoidable… Only this time, it could be a war. And that’s not good for any of us. [Click here and I’ll show you what’s happening…and how to prepare for the destruction that could come.]( "The Buck Stops Here," Dylan Jovine Founder & CEO, Behind the Markets he federal government’s Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) released new price inflation data today, and according to the report, price inflation during the month decelerated slightly, coming in at the lowest year-over-year increase in fifteen months. According to the BLS, Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation rose 6.5 percent year over year during December, before seasonal adjustment. That’s the twenty-second month in a row of inflation above the Fed’s arbitrary 2-percent inflation target, and it’s fifteen months in a row of price inflation above 6.0 percent. Month-over-month inflation fell for the first time in five months, with the CPI falling 0.1 percent from November to December. December’s year-over-year growth rate is down from June’s high of 9.1 percent, which was the highest price inflation rate since 1981. But December’s growth rate still keeps price inflation above growth rates seen in any month during the 1990s, 2000s, or 2010s. December’s increase was the fourteenth-largest increase in forty years. The ongoing price increases largely reflect price growth in food, energy, transportation, and shelter. Gasoline and used car prices, on the other hand, fell and mitigated the overall CPI increase. Nevertheless, the prices of essentials overall saw big increases in December over the previous year. For example, “food at home”—i.e., grocery bills—was up 10.4 percent in December over the previous year. Energy services were up 15.6 percent. Shelter was up by 7.5 percent. As of December there is, as of yet, no sign of price growth in shelter slowing down. Last month, shelter prices increased by 7.1 percent, and YoY growth only continued into December having now reached the highest growth rate since July of 1982. Month-over-month growth in shelter costs also remains among the largest we’ve seen in 40 years. In the seasonally adjusted numbers, shelter prices rose 0.8 percent, the highest since June 1982: Meanwhile, so-called core inflation—CPI growth minus food and energy—has barely fallen from the forty-year high reached in September. In December, year-over-year growth in core inflation was 5.7 percent. That’s down slightly from November’s growth rate of 5.9 percent. September’s year-over-year increase of 6.7 percent was the largest recorded since August 1982. Month-over-month growth in this measure was positive from November to December as well, with prices minus food and energy growing 0.3 percent. Month-to-month growth has been positive in every month since May 2020. Meanwhile, December was yet another month of declining real wages, and was the twenty-first month in a row during which growth in average hourly earnings failed to keep up with CPI inflation. According to new employment data released last week by the BLS, hourly earnings had increased 4.6 percent in December year, over year, meaning wage growth fell behind inflation N7EFwMq2BINxp7Flro91fRZOU3rZZqDcun0IngUlaXnyQvbWzv7a46QXA6pHJSFvE obMGe6be1ETKOfZ9VOxZFUgDoPpBuZHAyn3VCXbWKDbCzjKBwOd71UTHAHRvuR6vD YZ9i38WEAFnO7IkTLlbxEK30TUrDVqCz88duImd5uM4S2XRLp5EnNy9qPfLoZSocb 5eoMTgUJhEIxrSht4EdLBMJURHMQbb9oCkoflgxbaBw9rFfPn1048RIjC7MCiJRoC QxKEErG3QfgmCN3OcQkoU4Ggms6SsUZ35lCgSOTDEqX1w60cR4olqgcs2Xl1cSp9k GN1NK5FAqI2jNKfaJMBIXrPMpQYl7cd1mYZ673GJAg1O5w29ieeXOihJqg7Hd1N6p TEmHewcZblXXeuphZ0wtx8tTrkxb97NEIUn0hI2g7HNB386RQJVXnV67tDche3RFD x4GZktZQqgJXK91ClbnxaAUScROvH8imstt4ZK3tFK0BYFtP9c62TSXr4AEju49Kv GkeyjbjadqfeBKWmyxuwteVUUqy6QXHSfthtG63s7vgXl8tftgVcvIK2Jma26Q4HE ZEixeYNS3OxN3C72WbQQQYioatJ6on7dwZrxmkX0K1PekwuAYjKmUDQp9WFmRhzvk FbBBmCTiscIKj9G4aDxlry9EtKk6jKrmVeqlchOcfUbbevEL1eeQrcRV8XA4ry03A vgv8eU0eEDTrXmeyPtKJfDNYHT8JqOsUfT0kQsHhOul5RHsxq27sjxQzfMvFxNwUj a7n5FbVAjSWOWY35LuBN8H04af1G3i5xoiYd5XGreKkZwfPuUjr7uJYyDcWSYKmGy VcaSHCO7EVvCJpHQFF0kATykoAr8BDHZBJ9llDYYMqUWZxz9wJTx48Pzb1B9FmRlY u9uNhk6KZhMstEeCKI2YoBiywIxKdp5f8EyvQCLTaQSeF0EJkAd93N5fay0DOXXy2 VeWOLaQpbprYg623w9XNM5DrbMLNgscQZG6jyRZGTCY9jYCKynTw6O9U8SpXV3JAV DkFyZ9Bli0bZ2GvC1K56mGiVgLFPiWf56WPQVK9kBdQjDvWQ7WZsTnaesKpe95NQn “Only the paranoid survive,” he wrote, quoting Andy Grove, the former chief executive of Intel. A crisis atmosphere and self-imposed austerity gives Mr. Musk the cover to make drastic changes and fire top managers or eliminate large swaths of staff, two former Tesla executives said. It also prepares those who remain to work under extreme conditions to bring about Mr. Musk’s desires, they said. The approach at Twitter, where Mr. Musk has laid off thousands of employees, “is typical Elon,” Mr. Deak said. The chaos at the social media company is familiar to people who worked at Tesla when the company was struggling to ramp up manufacturing of the Model 3, which went on sale in 2017. In May of that year, Mr. Musk sent an email to the staff that echoed some of the language he has used with Twitter employees. “Tesla has to be hardcore and demanding,” he wrote. “The passing grade at Tesla is excellence, because it has to be.” In the year that followed, Mr. Musk famously slept on the floor in a Tesla factory’s conference rooms, fired the vice president of engineering and worked 120-hour weeks to cope with a lag in the production of Model 3s. Members of Tesla’s board worried about Mr. Musk’s workload and his use of Ambien to try to sleep. nmPMHKvV54VU7xWyZrf1MsJZHjFK28ONKt5uRLS921x13E9CfTGD49icgwAN2o8mU WUpSsFS56jGvvj9gwGxhJC6E3aMKHnsxqRBo0jvjHWdlYG1VLzR367mX2gKOAAW6G 2BvwdamI7bVRAQWEP46JBGMcGxTdw0RgHTI0B2YvjLLV9QhFvzmobGRF0zhBNI0iR jg0g6RKpyZS26KmsVyBVEKwQB89O2scC13U2gQLYXnejYY9zVwAIvyyTd2XObfM7B B0gsIdxuYhQnvu0M9iMj5SEfWPrP9wpSHQD0TPhDo0lonRtMRS7H8hWd1zrj7mD8n SEXvkpb2yFSLBBH8VEopEOG64dO2CUc0jvTLSEHNFTVeUuRv3rsiV9yIvFBdpqCaM 0zz1AlkGP3yexuCs42v0dNedLgfVBeZW3O1lGjkGCkOlwO2DxEvnCqSK7FR8vPn8Z FHAKTegtmfF2RwbKkkDJEU0qvdGGiq7uOOYnHfR3jCNDOM3du1FaDLx2rHiMJc3Ut O36HuGMGQjtBuk8yZI6Q3qClIDuf8YJOoAw9W1KWCsJYAgguZmmjCWfkOutRPW4Hm eDTEicu5anP2Fcyukw2Mbgc7d7GYnK3G9uzH5tyyUWpQWtNWBCkIclroU3iQIMlDA Ju9zgUfwcXRs24gpQeq2NJelHW1Ag9kyq1T3hSSaDfytGq93zIyaT2cozIRs9QS51 hnm4bMXM2LH0WeJ2BSUvEw5pvLMvbaKW9FeJUTuHIj6Gix7hNmnmbr9T7vqAxnRLE ghggxx8zYMWs2Ms7NUfpxo9RQSbob7dyJKCMJgLPXz20m4fGjKCCOTq5mkqZP3Nqo Sоmеtimеs, cоllеаguеs оf Futurеs Lаb Rеsеаrch shаrе spеciаl оffеrs with us thаt we think оur rеаdеrs shоuld be made aware оf.
