Oil under $100 is not proof the system is healthy. It may only mean the hoses are working. Strategic reserves are being used, China has stepped back from the market, and Hormuz is still Hormuz. Inventory is not supply. Inventory is time. oldsalt456538.substack.com/p/the-fire-hos…

A reader Mr. Know-Nothing compared Cuba and Taiwan. Bad name. He knows things. Both islands had corruption, authoritarianism, Cold War pressure, & difficult neighbors. Then Taiwan changed. Cuba calcified. Markets beat slogans. Cranes beat excuses. oldsalt456538.substack.com/p/two-islands-…
Kinmen and Matsu are back. Same rude map. Same bad geography. New Cold War problem. The next Taiwan crisis may not start with missiles. It may start with coast guard patrols, bridge proposals, water pipes and a bureaucrat with a stamp. oldsalt456538.substack.com/p/kinmen-and-m…
@GordonGChang I live in Taiwan and have seen it in action it's impressive. But also note elections: are on Saturdays, polling stations are about 1 / 5000 people no absentees: Multiple ballots: 1) for President, 2) for party 3) for your legislator.
China’s debt problem isn’t that China borrowed. Debt built the roads, ports, factories, airports, and skylines. The problem is the machine kept building after the easy returns were gone. The first highway transforms an economy. The fifth one doesnt. oldsalt456538.substack.com/p/chinas-debt-…
Democracy is noisy, corrupting & occasionally smells like pig intestine in the legislature. Still better than the knock on the door. I’ll take the mess. A very personal story about democracy, tyranny & why strongmen are always less charming up close. oldsalt456538.substack.com/p/copy-democra…
Can China blockade Taiwan? Yes, in the same way I can say I’m going to lose 20 Kg by Tuesday. The sentence is clean. The execution is ugly. Taiwan is not Hormuz. Ships move. Missiles exist. Japan is close. Markets scream. Please use a map. oldsalt456538.substack.com/p/chinas-taiwa…
A Xiaomi phone may be Chinese-branded, but the profit pool is global: US chips, JP sensors, Korean memory & displays, Taiwanese manufacturing, Android software, global patents, and a supply chain spreadsheet that should probably come with a therapist. oldsalt456538.substack.com/p/the-great-ch…
China is not collapsing tomorrow. But the “China will dominate everything” story increasingly looks like a very expensive PowerPoint deck with bad assumptions and excellent lighting. I wrote about EVs, overcapacity, property, capital flight, demographics, and why big ≠ healthy.
“Taiwan stole our chips” maybe great slogan. The real story is that of successful industrial policy that includes: licensing, ITRI, RCA, Philips, Morris Chang, trust, yield, and 40 years of execution. My latest: open.substack.com/pub/oldsalt456…
@denisewu She should be snubbed by all US politicians.
I'm incapable of relaxing like a normal person so, I spent the Penghu trip thinking about Harpoon missiles, helo assaults, & why some poor staff officer shouldn't be assigned the "seize Penghu” plan. Beautiful island. Excellent seafood. Terrible invasion math.
Today A sunburned Friday dispatch from Taiwan’s wind-scoured island chain, where fishing boats, pirate history, military geography, and a Taipei Rotary club collide. open.substack.com/pub/oldsalt456…
Today on “Things I Am Almost Certainly Underqualified to Explain”: the Chinese diaspora, the long shadow of a civil war fought 75 years ago, and guanxi — brought to you by a white guy from New Jersey. What could possibly go wrong? open.substack.com/pub/oldsalt456…
