Underestimate? Unless Washington aggressively nukes mainland China, recent overperformance by a post-Zero-COVID China suggests 10y is an overestimate.

Existential stress is an excellent motivator for rapid innovation. Or did we learn nothing from the 20th century?

> overperformance

What do you mean?

Growth, high tech innovation, etc.

China has been on the verge of collapse since 1991, according to Western popular consciousness.

There is no need for exaggeration. But.. Well clearly the last couple of years were not great for China compared to 10 or so prior to covid.
Based on which facts?
Slowing economic growth?

Extreme lockdowns?

Rapidly aging population in large part because of idiotic lunacy that was the one child policy?
