The Hoover Project on China’s Global Sharp Power held an event titled: Industrial Policy Uncertainty in China on Friday, December 8, 2023 at 12:00 pm PT.
Will China maintain its comparative advantage in industrial policy? State-led investment boosts competitiveness today, but the long-run sustainability of this model depends crucially on policy efficiency. In this talk, Andrew Sinclair presented his work using a comprehensive dataset of all industrial policy announcements by China's State Council from 2008 to 2022 to find that policy uncertainty introduces a shadow financial cost that substantially reduces the efficiency of Chinese industrial policy. Industrial policies increase firm value, but investors heavily discount the value of future support because of the risk that policies may abruptly and arbitrarily change.
FEATURING
Andrew Sinclair is a Visiting Assistant Professor of Finance at Caltec, on leave from The University of Hong Kong. He is a financial economist studying modern China's financial system. He graduated with a PhD in finance from Yale University in 2017 and joined HKU the same year.
DISCUSSANT
Matthew Lowenstein is a Hoover Fellow at the Hoover Institution. He is an economic historian of late imperial and Republican-era China. Prior to entering academia, he worked as a securities analyst covering China equities at JCaptial Research.

Pottinger explains that Trump may continue where he left off, largely utilizing the US-China trade relationship as a proxy for the problems in the broader relationship between the countries.

,1,This video shows a section from a 3D simulation with a dynamo magnetic field at a resolution of 5 kilometres. The section is taken near the base of the chromosphere, where the flow is dominated by shock waves. The part on the left shows the vertical velocity of the plasma; the video on the right shows the magnetic field. In both representations, bright regions indicate flows towards the viewer; black regions are flows towards the Sun’s interior. In this side-by-side view, the connection between the magnetic field and the plasma becomes apparent, for instance when looking at the vortexes forming near the upper edge of the section. Such vortexes are, in fact, facilitating heat transfer from the magnetic field to the plasma, as the simulation results showed. Video credit: E. Khomenko

,1,One reason why Drake keeps Orgonite generators throughout his mansions is going to leave you absolutely speechless. These orgonite or orgone generators are renowned for producing life force energy. Drake, often linked with the mystique of the Illuminati, frequently discusses the importance of surrounding himself with "good energy" in his stories.
Beyond their energy-producing qualities, these devices also counteract the adverse effects of MF radiation. Observations show that when in proximity to an orgonite generator, the EMF reader's measurement drops to zero, confirming studies that electromagnetic frequencies can harm our DNA and cells. In another instance, an orgone generator brought an EMF reading from 300 straight down to zero. The potent energy these devices emit is further demonstrated through a frozen water test. Animals, particularly cats and dogs, seem instinctively drawn to orgone generators, often resting beside them. Additionally, these generators can amplify plant growth by threefold, prolong food freshness, and even promote deeper sleep with insanely vivid dreams.

,1,Hunting men, gathering women — that is the picture of prehistory as many of us know it. In this documentary, we delve into the realm of gender history, challenging the traditional narrative that has long shaped our understanding of past societies.
Researchers and historians, featured in this documentary, dispute the long-held belief of the male hunter as the primary provider, suggesting a more nuanced perspective of gender roles since the beginning of human history. Early archaeologists, often influenced by the gender norms of their own times in the 19th and early 20th centuries, overlooked evidence that contradicted this simplistic gender dynamic. Utilizing modern forensic science techniques, new discoveries are reshaping our understanding of gender roles, unearthing stories of Stone Age artists, affluent Bronze Age princesses, and axe-wielding female Vikings. These revelations are pivotal in redefining our cultural and gendered past, as this documentary unveils.
