🇨🇳 🇺🇸 The idea that China would overtake the US economy died back in 2008... most people just never noticed.
Monetary analyst Jeffrey Snider says the mainstream is roughly 15 years late, because the property collapse, the growth plateau and a factory model that hit its ceiling in sight:
“The idea that China was going to overtake the US died in 2008.”
Anyone still bracing for a Chinese takeover is planning around an economy that stopped growing into that role a long time ago.

🇨🇳🇺🇸 China's economy was 77% the size of America's in 2021 and has shrunk to 67%... the overtake that was supposed to happen before 2020 is now penciled in for 2040 at best
Chinese retail sales growth has fallen to roughly zero, household borrowing has been contracting for two ve stopped lending to businesses and started hoarding government bonds instead.
Jeffrey Snider, who runs Eurodollar University, says the China-overtakes-America story died in 2008 when the world stopped buying enough of what China's factories make, and Beijing's only exit is inventing the next industrial revolution itself:
"You can't steal your way to prosperity."
Jeff says the Soviets tried that for 20 years and still collapsed, and China is already halfway into Japan's lost decades, minus the banking blowup that made Japan's official.
The Communist Party's whole plan is to hold the pieces together until a technology breakthrough that has to arrive by the 2030s or not at all.

VANCE DECLINES ENDORSEMENT: Vice President JD Vance declined to endorse Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for reelection, while President Donald Trump gave the embattled Israeli leader his "Complete and Total Endorsement" ahead of Israel's Oct. 27 election.
"I endorse so I'm not getting involved in Israeli elections," Vance said in an interview.
Vance said he was neither supporting nor opposing Netanyahu, explaining that his focus was on the Nov. 3 U.S. midterm elections.

In September 1940, Nazi Germany unleashed the Blitz, a devastating aerial bombing campaign targeting London and other major British cities. For 57 consecutive nights, German Luftwaffe aircraft rained explosives down on the capital, reducing neighborhoods to rubble and setting Factories, docks, and residential areas suffered catastrophic destruction. Across the campaign, more than a million buildings were damaged or destroyed, and over 40,000 civilians lost their lives.
Despite the relentless devastation, Londoners refused to break. Families sought shelter in Underground stations, Winston Churchill’s speeches inspired resistance, and ordinary citizens continued their daily routines amid the destruction. Milkmen navigated bombed-out streets, workers returned to factories, and children attended schools whenever possible. The determination of the British people became one of the defining symbols of the war.
The Blitz was intended to shatter Britain’s morale and force the nation into submission. Instead, it became a powerful testament to human resilience, solidarity, and courage. Even as bombs fell and fires illuminated the night sky, London continued to stand, proving that a city could be devastated without having its spirit destroyed.

Ghalibaf is the speaker of parliament and the man who leads Iran’s talks with Washington.
If anyone in Tehran had a good reason to be abroad this forum runs Oct. 26-27 and Iran is sending a delegation without him. Nobody has explained why.
Tehran expects to be bombed. The supreme leader hasn’t been seen in public since the strike that killed his father in February.
So the simplest reading is that Iran’s leadership is staying put and out of sight until it knows what Washington is going to do.
