Oil is low because Trump ordered MBS to pump baby pump to get low gas prices at the pump and to screw putin.


Low hanging fruit get picked. Money supply is increasing way, way, faster than production of natural resources is ramping.


You are out of your depth.

Money is not a claim to only natural resources. Money is a claim to the goods, services, and assets that are available to be bought in that currency. And Natural resources are a very small component.

How are you so obtuse to not understand a simple point?

Pretending that increasing demand will not increase natural resources demand is what hyperinflationistas love doing.

Here is some more LLM slop.


Copper and Tin price increases 2018 to now vs Chinese electronic goods export prices 2018 to now

I'll summarize it for those who won't click the link.


Copper prices have gone up ~54.2% since 2018.


Tin prices have gone up ~69.2% since 2018.


Chinese electronics goods export prices have gone down 1.5% since 2018.


In what universe is money printing good for China?


I'll repeat it here.


China is not a net natural resources exporter, therefore money printing is explicitly bad for China.


Period.


Full stop.


You have to ask yourself why literally every single U.S. propaganda outlet is ordering China to print money.

And that is with an averaged price for the year to date 2025. If you look at spot prices today, it's absolutely skyrocketing.


~75.3% for copper and ~95.5% for tin.

Yes your beautiful austerity kills the economy. Learn how accounting works and follow that guy (fiat money - you will go with all the stages of grief like me). I don't agree with everything, but overall MMT prediction are the best regarding economy and closest to real descripction of how in reality the economy of a country works.



Just print the money, and have a booming economy. Poland imports much more energy than China and printing money did amazing results since 2016.
Rise hugely minimum wage, then beef up social spending and you have blooming economy it's that easy. No need for any anti involution like cutting production, just do the two things I said.

Poland gets free money and credit from the E.U.


It's basically subsidized by Northern Europe.


There is no such thing as a free lunch.


Either you loot it or you beg for it.


Poland is basically someone flexing a lambo on food stamps.

I mean, if you are absolutely determined to make the U.S. stronger and more powerful, then print money i guess.


I'm an American by the way.

It's less money than you think, and it had a price, unrestricted access for European companies which monopolized most industry and retail. Most money which came to Poland was also before the boom that started since 2016.

Poland has no technology and little resource.
Yes. It's small country part of German industrial base. Imagine what will happen when China finally reject neoliberal lies? Another economic boom, now almost all printed cash will go to domestic Chinese companies (mature domestic industrial and consumer sector) - China is ready for 800 RMB plus benefit for every Child per month.

I recently saw this entry by Kevin Walmsley on China trying to have a greater role in Global commodities. He also has a video on this

It's very interesting, but also logical for Shanghai to play a bigger role in trading in commodities trading world since it needs to do to expand the financial services sector.

so I took a look here of this 13B RMB fund by 上海国资 to form subsidiary "上海国茂控股有限公司"

进一步巩固金属贸易规模优势。扩大铜、铝、钢铁等现有优势金属品类交易规模,鼓励国内外有矿产资源的企业扩大市场货源投放。加快发展新兴金属,配合支持上期所,加快镁、钨、钴等新兴金属期货品种研发,吸引集聚镍、锂、镁、锡、钨、钴等金属贸易商。支持传统金属贸易绿色转型,拓展再生铜、再生铝等再生金属品种现货交易。(区商务委、区委金融办、各片区管理局和街镇)
expanding trading volume of Copper, Aluminum, steel by encouraging more domestic and foreign companies to provide supply. So, the importance here I guess is to increase volume and commodify trading. Although agreeing to a standard and enforcing the alloy standard will be up to the exchange to do so.

And also look to get into magnesium, tungsten and Cobalt & attract traders of nickel, lithium, magnesium, tin, tungsten and cobalt. So, all metals that China really does a lot of refining and processing. + supporting more trading of recycled copper and aluminum.

发挥金融赋能作用。支持商业银行为大宗商品贸易企业提供全方位金融服务,提供差异化贷款产品。加大企业和金融机构联动,通过人民币跨境支付系统等实现商品贸易货款的跨境支付和结算。推广本外币合一的银行结算账户体系,优化本外币银行结算账户服务。支持企业采用数字人民币结算,提升支付结算效率。支持融资担保机构为企业提供融资担保服务。推动保险行业拓展大宗商品贸易保险业务。聚焦重点领域,推动大宗商品交易服务平台对接上海清算所“清算通”业务,完善“清算通”平台跨行跨境现货清算结算功能。(区委金融办、区商务委)
As always, one reason to push forward this is strengthening China's finance industry and banking. + increasing payment through CIPS and settlement in RMB. + using Shanghai clearing house's clearing connect platform.
