That is significant however you cut it. From this replacement cycle in 2024, Apple is going to face unprecedented competition in every segment of its China sales.

The forecast was lifted from the CBO for the U.S. and in China, was based on the tax cuts and large fiscal expansions (pensions, education, etc) that China has forthcoming as well as China’s slowing growth.

China’s fiscal trajectory is far more unsustainable than the U.S.’ fiscal trajectory


the interest payments especially are a soon to be moot point since rate cuts are coming and the main drivers of debt - social security and Medicare, are of limited macroeconomic importance (it will just require a headline grabbing event to make Congress move)

As a principal, I dismiss any chart that goes to 2053.

Pretty sure it's comparing public debt with China's government (central + local) debts.
