I'd say $1 of ransom is too much. No one sensible can afford to pay that much. . In Hong Kong paying protection money may be part of your daily life. But customs and expectations vary from one culture to another. . The 6% decline in the Shanghai market index merely indicates "the casino is still open". Import tariffs of 25% on most Chinese goods will eventually be fully priced-in by the Shanghai market and life will continue as it did before in anticipation of yet another round of Deep Trump tariffs. The next US administration will bring more of the same for China, but the price may be higher.
