A lot of CXOs are waiting for the Biden win and hoping for storm to pass so to speak.

Which storm will pass? Don’t think Biden winning will change Xi’s or CCP’s behavior?

The good old time when businesses could enjoy hundreds of millions of cheap, educated workers won't likely be back; the political stance against CCP is bipartisan while China is seriously turning back to more planned, protective economy. Probably investing into South/Southeast Asia would be a more reasonable option for those CXO, rather than expecting Biden to solve all the structural issues lies between the West and China.

Biden just release his Build Back Better plan and it basically puts defence against Chinese espionage and predatory economic practices as a centerpiece.

I wouldn't know why, everyone if agreeing on acting against China, since HK

I don't know much of American politics, but from the outside, Trump keeps talking about 'make America great again', so why are CXOs waiting for a Biden win?? I'm sorry if this is a dumb question. I just don't understand it.

  Making American Great Again is a threat to the 'capitalist' class of America, who grow their wealth by avoiding the expense of employing Americans, using American resources, or materials. Before everyone downvotes me- I'm not saying that Trump actually follows this agenda! I'm only sayin thats the style of rhetoric he uses in his campaign.

    I understand your point and it is perfectly reasonable. But Trump hasn't actually interfered in the CXOs life right? they get their massive tax cuts and all. so I thought they'd be happy with Trump.

As if Biden would magically solve all the issues with Xi's China. Too risk averse to deal with many regimes in SE Asia, these CXOs have put all their eggs in a single basket. Now the owner of that basket is abusing power and making demands.
