Of course that's your contention. You're a Taiwan Strait Crisis Tourist. You just finished some Cold War ASW fiction, Tom Clancy prob'ly, and so naturally that's what you believe until next month when you get to Ian Easton and get convinced that there will be a million man swim
across the strait without any preparation.
That'll last until sometime in your second year, then you'll be in here regurgitating the @CSIS wargame about the limitations of the
(Well, as a matter of fact, I won't because @CSIS drastically underestimates the capability of-)
"...@CSIS drastically underestimates the capability of the PLAN/PLAAF to generate 'salivating' salvos of precision fires, especially with PHL-16..." You got that from "@PLAOpsOsint," from Twitter, right?
Do you have any thoughts of your own on the subject or were you just gonna plagiarize the whole PLA OSINT watching community for me?
The problem with this headline is that it creates some false narrative of 'walking back' regulations on 3RL. This is more of a recognition that 3RL execution was too fast/too furious. Incidentally, letting COVID rip allows for continuation of real estate reforms.
Also, if you read the article, this literally is not confirmed as official policy - literally haven't even seen WeChat screenshots and policy document scans (which we previously saw). If Wang Huning's meeting on ZCP reopening was 'leaked', where are the corresponding leaks?
I'm skeptical that this is anything but a slight (6-12M) deferral of real estate structural reforms. Time will tell. cc: @chen_long
Some reflections witnessing the significant drawdowns of former darlings:
1) Whatever 'edge' you had in recognizing something that others 'did not see' is transitory. It literally takes a few minutes for a view/thesis to be pitched...
...and perhaps a few days for 'fast moving' funds/analysts to validate said view and take action. Research intensive firms may take a few weeks to get up to speed, and slower moving LOs will come soon after.
