What Matters More Than the Stock Market
What Matters More Than the Stock Market
Notes From the Field By James Hickman (Simon Black) April 12, 2025
Yesterday when I was talking to my friend and business partner Peter Schiff, he made it clear: China is trying to drive a wedge between the US and Europe by dumping US bonds, and buying euros. (Gold too, for that matter!)
This would account for why the dollar has been sinking against the euro… and why Treasury yields have surged.
I sat down to record a podcast about this because, frankly, it’s the most important thing happening right now. This topic is critical to understand—not just what’s happening, but why this is no longer a trade war… it's an economic war.
Think about it: the world’s two largest and most dominant superpowers are directly threatening each other’s economic interests. And that could spiral out of control quickly if cooler heads don’t soon prevail.

If you missed it this week, we also wrote about:
Escalation gets real: No more sex with Chinese women
Even the US government is ordering embassy employees in China to discontinue romantic relationships. If she's into you, assume she's a spy.
OK- it's almost definitely China who's dumping Treasury bonds
If you thought this was just a trade war, think again—China may have just fired the first real shot in an all-out economic war.
It's like the dumbest AOC logic applied to global trade
Imagine crashing the global economy because someone forgot how to divide—welcome to U.S. trade policy in 2025.
