Smart people on both sides seem to be making wildly different predictions. People like Bradley Schurman and Peter Zeihan lay it out in pretty simple terms to show China is essentially doomed (demographic collapse, etc). Ray Dalio lays it out pretty clearly that we are due for an empire shift, and looking at his ~18 graphs, China is pretty clearly the successor. I get the feeling that one of the sides is a metaphorical Peter Schiff. Convincing in small doses, but it’s all the same gold perma-bull schtick.
