IMHO, just anything could break apart the whole PM market & silver will break first. Could this stop the exports of silver form the CB of China?
U.S.-CHINA RELATIONS

A dispute between China and the United States over weapons proliferation is escalating fast. On this page: the U.S.-China trade bill at risk. Overleaf: China plays hardball

THE U.S. TRADE BILL on China is in trouble. More than six weeks after the House of Representatives approved a measure granting permanent normal trade relations to China, things have unexpectedly stalled in the Senate, where concern is mounting about the hidden threat of alleged Chinese arms proliferation. If Congress has not passed PNTR by the time China enters the World Trade Organization--possibly just months away--China will be able to deny U.S. businesses the right to benefit from market-entry concessions it made to enter the trade body. Thus with the Senate vote delayed and draft legislation for sanctions on China gathering pace, concern is growing that billions of dollars of U.S. trade and investment in China is at risk.
The blockage stems from claims by America's intelligence agencies that China has violated agreements aimed at preventing the spread of nuclear weapons.
