With the discussion below about how China is teetering on the brink......and with the knowledge that a large portion of our ag manufacturing is based in China (be it JD/CIH/PEER bearings/ etc).

It makes me wonder how that will affect us "here"? I foresee shortages of parts, and more quality issues to come, until perhaps mfg heads to safer areas ......be it Mexico, or even back here in the US.

While this discussion could be on many different fronts, I am basing my query mainly on the SINO steel makers and manufacturing industry.
