I can't work it out myself. I would expect China to struggle to maintain its growth momentum given that it's become a bit of a
global pariah. The rulership there has managed to annoy almost everyone, the Muslims because of the Uighurs, the whole of India with the Ladakh border skirmishes, Vietnam and the Philippines with their ceding chunks of the South China Sea, Tibetans and now Mongolians for trying to erase their cultures and subsume it into their own homogenous entity. The treatment of the brave young Hong Kong protesters caused me to rethink buying Chinese products in future though it's really the fault of the top leadership rather than the people, IMO. Buying up all the copper will create problems for the rest of the world in their push to recover their economies by expanding sustainable energy projects.
