What was said around it

or over one trillion dollars could be delisted from our us-based markets the second be aware that it could take a long time to unfold since China publishes their own numbers and maintains an extremely tight grip on their economy there is no guarantee that they can't just keep kicking the can further and further into the future and they have the ability to inject as much money as needed to resolve the situation at least temporarily and finally in a weird way China's slowing growth and Global recession could help ease demand in upward price growth meaning with less resources being consumed inflation could begin to subside or even decline now a lot of these are very broad assumptions without a definitive timeline for when they could unfold but it is a very worrying sign that we're not going to know the full effects of what's to come until most likely it's too late so with that today guys thank you so much for watching if you want to be kept up to date make sure to subscribe thank you so much for watching and until next time
