How long do you think it will take


for new and used sales prices of components made in China to collapse because nobody wants them? To judge by the level of denial I'm thinking by the end of the year. But curious to know if people think it might come even sooner than that?

I guess I am not following why people wouldn’t want Chinese products in particular.  Is it for fear that they might be contaminated with the virus?  Or would be out of a desire to punish the Chinese government for lack of transparency and mishandling the crisis?
I read recently that Apple wanted to place some new plant outside of China but the Chinese warned them off by threatening to forbid iPhone sales within China.  They did the same with Samsung and now one cannot buy the Galaxy smartphone  within China.

The NBA and China already had a rocky relationship before the virus.  Google “Daryl Morley “

The Chinese have been actively obstructing the CDC and Academic researchers from having free access in Wuhan to investigate the whys and the hows, not to mention trying to pin the blame on the U.S. Military.  I think that people could be more forgiving towards them if they acknowledge that yes it started there and helped be part of the solution.  Add in the fact that they control the supply chain issues resulting in failure to have PPE, and there may be some long lived anti Chinese sentiment.
