Episode notes

- Xi's purge of military leadership consolidates his control and may accelerate policy moves.
- Political consolidation matters because it enables rapid shifts in economic and monetary policy.

- If China stops forcing yuan depreciation, capital flows out of assets that benefited from yuan weakness.

- Low domestic inflation versus higher foreign inflation means the yuan is undervalued by logic.
