This thing probably requires China to carpet-bomb Taiwan to shake it.

Impossible. The only reason China weaves the sky with missles is to prepare the way for Taiwan's assimilation, not invasion. Taiwan's people are its greatest asset - technologically fit and an engine in China's economy. There is no sense in antagonizing them to the point of exodus by physical invasion. The US will not intervene.

Gold Fields Mineral Services Ltd. has "revised up" its estimates of silver stocks held by the Chinese government, although the figures will not be publicly available until the release of its silver market report in late May, said Philip Klapwijk, GFMS managing director. He said that GFMS was shocked by the 'size of the flows' of silver coming out of China.
