CHINA’S ECONOMIC WAR MACHINE SHATTERS RECORDS AS THE WEST SLEEPS. New data reveals a terrifying reality: Beijing’s export engine is running RED HOT, flooding global markets and amassing a MASSIVE $1.19 TRILLION trade surplus. This isn’t growth—it’s ECONOMIC DOMINATION by design.

While domestic demand COLLAPSES under the weight of a shattered property market and deflation, China is DUMPING its problems onto the world. Exports soared a shocking 6.6% in December, CRUSHING expectations. The target? Every nation EXCEPT the United States, where trade has been deliberately SABOTAGED, plunging by 30% in a single month. This is a calculated DECOUPLING, a chilling preview of a fragmented global order.

Experts are sounding the alarm with URGENCY. “China’s trade surplus will have as DESTRUCTIVE an impact as Trump’s tariffs,” warns Eswar Prasad of Brookings. The IMF BEGS Beijing to stop relying on exports, but the pleas fall on deaf ears. Instead, China tightens its grip on critical resources, with rare earth exports SURGING 32%—a clear weaponization of supply chains.

The EU and Southeast Asia are now the primary targets, absorbing China’s surplus as its own consumers suffer. Officials offer empty pledges to “balance trade,” but the data tells the brutal truth: this is a one-way street to Chinese hegemony. The so-called “truce” with the U.S. is a facade, a temporary lull before the next storm.

As the world’s second-largest economy prepares to post its GDP numbers, one question haunts the global community: Is this the final, irreversible step toward a world economy held HOSTAGE by Beijing’s political whims? The trade numbers aren’t just statistics—they are a DECLARATION OF WAR written in dollars and cents.
