Our conversation focuses a good deal on China, an economy that Gavekal has carefully studied.

Then, a new study suggests the spread of the virus could have been reduced by as much as 95% if the Chinese government had acted to stop it rather than to cover it up. Of course, instead of reporting on that study, the U.S. mainstream media parrot’s the communist regime’s propaganda.
