Protecting Taiwan would mean WWIII. I hope the West and the Taiwanese figure this out ASAP and start moving as many people as possible out of there, and destroy all the fabs. China is building more warships than the rest of the world combin

Maybe it's a good trade. But if it's not, Ackman and all the other snakes will get out of the trade well before you. Stay in safe money markets with decent yields. Don't swim with sharks.
