Dan Collins of TheChinaMoneyReport.com predicts 2019 can possibly, at long last, be the year in which the Chinese economy actually does fall apart. Many big names in finance have predicted it over the past decade, but Dan thinks the corporate and household debt may finally catch up with the economy. Will the Chinese government force the zombie corporations and banks to die? Or will they prop them up as Japan chose to do? And what is in store for the Belt and Road Initiative and the trade war it has inspired with the US?
