Also there are few points: 1, putting money in another market doesn’t mean believeing America will go doom, people have diversed portfolio. 2, what are the options we have in the US for pure EV cars? Tesla and Tesla, people will go for Tesla, but in China? They got Tesla AND more. I can’t believe that the US is going all the way down to protectionism, the old story should be the US fk up foreign gov and pushing forward “freedom of trading” and then the market suddenly opened up. Funny to see China introduced Tesla into the Chinese market.

74245602 STD0313: Honda has 1 model on its way; Toyota, 1 model; Chevy, 5 models, 2 on their way; Ford, 2 models; Volvo, 4 models; BMW, 4 models; Benz, 6 models; GMC, 2 models (Hummer, I don’t get who the target is); Jeep, ehh, they don’t; Buick, 0; Mazda, 0; Hyundai, 3? 4 maybe; Kia, 3 models; Dodge, 0? Cadillac, 2, 1 on the way. Yes sir, I do know those manufacturers are going pure EV, but in 2023 Q4 Tesla got 50% of the market, and second place goes to Ford with 8.2% - really? It’s not fun, and the competition isn’t really “strong”; people will go for Tesla, it’s true. The competition in the Chinese market is pushing everything forward. Dude, I don’t really think the price of vehicles in the US will ever support infrastructure building… It’s too expensive at the end of the day…
Also, what to do about who China is supporting? I thought it was all about the market and what to buy. What makes me feel interesting is that the US is the one leaning towards protectionism. “I don’t see them rolling down the street in Fords and Chevys”, well, because they tend to drive VW, Honda, and Toyota. Chinese understand they built absolute crap back in the day, and that’s why they were all driving VW, Honda, and Toyota. Now they have intense competition in EVs, so people tend to buy Tesla, BYD, NIO, and they are excited about Xiaomi. Why? Because they are good. It’s not 2005 anymore; BYD is not the BYD that builds fake Corolla and crappy vehicles anymore. So why isn’t it a good thing to introduce more competition?
It’s not relevant, but you brought it up: “Look at who China chooses to support”. They stand with Russia, so what? LOL, like the US supporting Israel is 100% righteous. Why is it hard to admit that both Russia and Israel are pieces of crap? Also, Chinese put their money in the US market as well. Just like what I said, you believe in the US and they don’t. Putting money in another market doesn’t mean America will go doom. People have diverse portfolios. This is capitalism, bro.
