I've heard about China's currency manipulation over the last decade, but I don't know enough about economics to really truly understand it. From what I gather, it means they immediately boost exports and cut imports during this period to largely fuck over their trade partner countries. This infograph explains the process a bit, but I don't truly grasp it.

It's truly refreshing to see someone acknowledge the limitations of their knowledge.

All too often the dunning Kruger effect rears its head and people press on into a subject that they know little about, while proclaiming their an expert.

I wish I contribute something to this subject, but i dont know shit about economics.

Just wanted to compliment you for keeping it real.

Happy to keep it humble. I've definitely fallen trap to proclaiming to be an expert in the past on topics I didn't have a deep understanding of, but learned that by being a stubborn ass results in a stifling of my chances to end up learning more about the subject.
