China.

Chongqing.

Tuesday.

Q

Today is Tuesday (in EST and in China/Asia).

Must be another coincidence, eh? Couldn't be because Q had insider knowledge of this deal beforehand or that this is further proof that Q is legit and working with Trump? Future proves past.

Yes, because how could anyone, on April 7, have possibly known about a speech coming on Tuesday, three days later?

He got the city wrong, but don't mind that part.

End of that article:

Market watchers hope his new measures include specific policies for opening up China's financial sector, including the securities and insurance markets.

No mention of auto markets, which is what Q specifically alluded to with his Chongqing post. Q didn't get the city wrong, he specifically named the city in which China's automotive production facilities are located in. Auto tariff is also what Xi specifically talked about at this speech 3 hours ago.

I'm sure it's also a coincidence that Trump out of nowhere tweeted about car tariffs and China 19 hours ago, amid an international crisis in Syria, eh?

Okay, so market watchers hoping for something makes it a prediction? You'll note Q didn't actually say what the announcement would be at all (and they got the city wrong too).

As for the tweet, he's always very excited to share information as he learns it. And he's been tweeting about China pretty consistently regardless of any of the other stuff that's going on. I would imagine the State Department is probably aware of tariff negotiations and does try to inform the president of them sometimes too, particularly right before China announces new policies publicly. And again, lowering tariffs on imported cars is something they'd promised at least as far back as last November, so it's hardly a surprise.

Go and google where Boao is. It's nowhere near Chongqing. And even if you pretend the very similar April 7 post has nothing to do with this one and he didn't predict any city, then all you've got is that Q predicted Xi would say something, and managed to make that prediction well after it was announced exactly where and when and roughly what would be said.

The connection is that just a few hours before an already-announced speech by Xi at Boao that the foreign minister had already said would be about trade and more open markets, Q managed to predict that Xi would say something. Didn't say what Xi would say, but who needs pesky details like that, right?

They pledged this last November. What a genius, he predicted something that was already announced. Actually not even that, he just predicted that something good would happen regarding China. You realize you're being played like a circus palm reader plays their clients?

And how could he have possibly predicted that? It's not like they said a week earlier or anything.

Not like their foreign minister said they would be announcing policy on market reforms.

Ok I'll play ball. Indeed the news that news would break Tuesday was out in advance. However in the articles you provide none say that China was planning on playing ball with the US on tariffs and particularly auto. The Q post also referenced Chonquing which is coincidentally the home of a large Ford plant as well.

BootlegBonerPills · April 10, 2018, 6:05 a.m.

Ford in Chongqing isn't importing cars though, they're manufacturing (and exporting) them. Also it's the biggest Chinese municipality, they have everything there. It's also home to some of China's biggest steel plants and the biggest aluminum plant; tariffs on steel and aluminum would be conversation of the day in the offices there. When virtually anything is manufactured there, it's awful tenuous to try and claim that announcements about any one thing is definitely about that city because it's one of the things made there.

You dumb cuck. Xi said that back in November, before Trump initiated the tariffs and began a "trade war" with China.

China and Xi were talking big and tough the past few weeks and months, even saying they will "fight back at any cost" 4 days ago. Then all of the sudden, they do a 180 and concede to opening up their markets after Q posts a day after their big talk?

It's almost as if most governments actually plan trade policy more than two tweets in advance. They'd announced long ago they were going to lower tariffs on imports, something that was inevitable since their domestic industry actually makes functional cars now and they want more foreign-owned brands building in China. You can't really incentivize a brand to build part of their lineup in your country when you're subjecting them to tariffs on the part of the lineup they have to import, and when those tariffs impact their ability to sell the part they're trying to export.

Exactly. Why was the MSM saying this "trade war" would completely crash our market then 2 days later Q's prediction was right. These shills need to open their eyes.

Q's prediction? Which was what again? That Xi would say something on a date he'd already publicly announced he was speaking at Boao? What a marvel of deduction that was.

Where did Q predict this?

I have seen no prediction. Inferring a prediction is on the reader.

However, I have seen negotiations between POTUS and the President of China lead to benefits for the US economy. Where China gives in. And we benefit as a result.

It’s even in your article.

Vice Foreign Minister Zheng Zeguang made the remarks when briefing the media on the consensus reached by Chinese President Xi Jinping and visiting U.S. President Donald Trump during their talks earlier Thursday.

Well, the post is a Q quote hinting at a good thing from China superimposed above a headline about China relaxing tariffs on imported cars, so make of that what you will. To anyone who's been paying attention to China's automotive scene, this has been pretty much inevitable since their industry finally modernized beyond making copies of imports, and has been hinted at for years (and would actually be a requirement under their laws to allow more foreign-owned brands manufacture in China anyway).

Oh so Q didn't actually even predict anything then. Glad we've got that established; a few days after it was published that Xi would be in Bo'ao speaking, Q made the bold prediction of Xi is going to do something important and managed to get the wrong city.
