Aether was he lucky or clever? Or both ...it doesn't matter now like but hindsight it's a marvellous thing.. or so I'm told... there's no answer to this situation even professionals in the know how get stuck markets will go back up patience

Both America and China’s economy would suffer if Donald Trump delivers on his threat of higher tariffs on Chinese imports. So says Cailin Birch, global economist at The Economist Intelligence Unit, who also remains hopeful of a “limited” trade deal by next month. She writes: The breakdown of US-China talks and a further escalation of tariffs would cause erase between 0.2 and 0.5 percentage points from both Chinese and US GDP, depending on the severity of the new tariffs. As a result, we continue to expect US negotiators to work hard towards a deal. One week ago, the US team dropped an issue that had previously been at the core of its demands--an end to commercial cyber theft by Chinese firms--presumably in an effort to get a deal over the line. Mr Trump’s move to lash out at China may reflect his frustration that a deal still hasn’t been secured, even after the US dropped some of the more controversial issues from the agenda. The US team will likely use this threat to increase the pressure on China in the coming round of talks. We maintain our view that a limited deal will be reached by early June that will prevent a further escalation in tariffs, but which will fail to address some of the major issues in the US-China rivalry, particularly cyber theft. As a result, we expect trade and diplomatic tensions to re-emerge at a later date.

Copper Well Positioned To Lead The Next Resource Cycle Frank HolmesContributor Great SpeculationsContributor Group Markets Copper Well Positioned to Lead the Next Resource Cycle Copper Well Positioned to Lead the Next Resource Cycle IVANHOE MINES The world is on a path to vast shortages in copper, nickel, lithium and other important minerals that are necessary to build the batteries in electric vehicles. So says Tesla’s global supply manager, according to Reuters. The comment comes as the electric car maker broke ground in Shanghai for its first overseas “Gigafactory.” Tesla’s first battery factory, in Reno, Nevada—the largest in the world—is still in expansion mode and aims to produce as many as 105 gigawatt hours (GWh) of battery cells and 150 GWh of battery packs by next year. All combined, that’s a lot of copper that will need to come down the pipeline very soon. But some analysts now say that capacity isn’t quite there yet to feed global demand, and the industry could be running in deficit by 2021. Commodities analyst firm CRU Group expects copper supply to be short some 41,000 tons that year and 270,000 tons a couple of years later. Meaning: We could be looking at another commodities super-cycle, with the red metal leading the way.
