On China deterrence, my prediction (and I put my money on it already) is that we’re about to see a global military build up.

Pretty good prediction.  Japan wants to increase the range of 1,000 of their ballistic miles from 100 km to 1,000 km.  All this with an eye on China.

I'm thinking it might be a good time for me to put more weight on defense contractors in my stock portfolio.  If China speeds up its advances in military technology, can the U. S. stand idly by.   Plus the U.S. has to replenish all the equipment going into the Ukraine war.

China is talking more in recent days about supporting Russia in the war.   That's not good.
