There are lots of poor fools who think that China "owns" the US because it has bought a lot of US "paper" -- government bonds, T-Bills, and even property in the US. That does not mean we are in any way dependent on China -- except to pay our payout dates on bonds, and be good stewards of our own economic growth. When the US market is so nervous it drops 2000 points over several weeks because China's economy is finally "slowing down" from its "artificial rate of growth" (Shanghai Composite, etc.) and is devaluing its own currency (to catch up with the "truth" of its own growth or lack thereof) then the US market is being run by thieves for fools!!!
Our markets are strong -- our workforce is working well -- our businesses are mixed: some are working brilliantly (Apple, Tesla, Pixar, Chevron, etc. etc. etc.) and some are just working very well (Google, Johnson and Johnson, Exxon, etc. etc. etc.) ---- but, and this is a big but, none of them is in "trouble."
