The most interesting issue here is China restricting rare earth minerals and being prepared to get into a trade war with the USA. They might have reached the point where they are prepared to call the US bluff. The good side to this situation is a decoupling of the US from China - something that's needed after a dependency was built up thanks to globalist policies.

If the trade war extends to other Western nations a massive reset should happen. Hopefully their nationals will return to China instead of buying Western assets including residential property. A trade war with India (for buying Russian oil), having similar results, would also be useful for similar reasons. The 'chaos' being caused by Trump is not necessarily a bad thing for the Western nations.
