The Start Of A New World Order and Why the new world order will be worse than you think
Is the global financial system entering a new phase of instability?
What happens to the China economy when America's financial system finally breaks? As the US debt crisis deepens and the threat of a US dollar collapse grows, the shockwaves won't stop at American borders they'll reshape the entire global order, starting with China.
In this in-depth financial education breakdown, we analyze how a full-scale US economy collapse would trigger cascading consequences across China's export-driven economy, the stock market, and the global financial crisis already forming beneath the surface.
De-dollarization is accelerating. Trump tariffs have fractured US China trade relations. Foreign buyers are pulling back from U.S. Treasury bonds. Credit cycles are tightening. And inflation pressures refuse to ease.
But here's the question nobody's asking: If America falls, does China rise or fall harder?
In this video, we explore:
✅ How a US economy collapse directly impacts China's growth model
✅ The US dollar collapse and what de-dollarization means for the yuan
✅ Why the US debt crisis is a ticking time bomb for global trade
✅ Stock market crash 2026 scenarios and how China is exposed
✅ The role of Trump tariffs and the US China tariff war in accelerating economic fractures
✅ Why AI and tech innovation can't fix structural global financial crisis risks
✅ Bond market stress, sovereign debt instability, and the limits of debt-driven growth
✅ What Xi Jinping's economic strategy looks like in a post-dollar world
The concerns raised echo themes from Ray Dalio's work on economic cycles and global monetary transitions. As fiscal policy debates intensify and public trust in institutions weakens, the scrutiny over inflation, debt expansion, and long-term economic sustainability has never been higher.
If you want serious analysis of the changing global economy, US dollar collapse risks, the China economy fallout, and what this means for the future of investing and finance this video delivers the insight most channels won't touch.
The world order is shifting faster than most investors realize. China's fate may be tied to America's more than anyone wants to admit.

First 90 secondsSteve Keen· Host0:00
China's focused on capital formation. A huge part of their economy goes into investment rather than consumption. The rate of growth of the wages has kept up with the rate of growth of the economy, unlike the American economy.
Speaker 10:11
Steve Keen, the economist who warned about the 2008 crash, is back with a bold take on China. But when his views are challenged, this calm discussion turns into a heated clash. Is China's system misunderstood genius or a ticking time bomb?
Steve Keen· Host0:26
The policies- Okay ... the Chinese have taken out are far more effective than what's been done in Europe. You are falling into the same trap that neoclassical economists make about Western economies. I hope you put this up on YouTube.
Speaker 10:36
I will.

I hope you put it up good. We're gonna be in conflict, and I'm sick and tired of people thinking they know what they're talking about when they're not understanding the accounting. This is Dom Tweed, who's an ex-student of mine from Kingston University. So Dom discovered my work on economics when he was a school student, and then came to Kingston to meet me when I got the job in Kingston. Enrolled in and did an undergraduate degree at Kingston, graduated, and has now moved to China. He's visiting me in Amsterdam right now. So I thought in some senses, who better to comment on this alleged debate that I had with, uh, Ken Cao here? Let's have a roll. Let- let's have a listen to him here. So here we go. What began as I thought was gonna be a debate about China and turned into, in my opinion, was it a harangue about China, at which point I left. So let's have a listen.
Ken Cao· Soundbite1:18
Mr. Keen, thank you for being here.
Steve Keen· Host1:19
You're welcome.
Ken Cao· Soundbite1:20
I recently watched one of your interviews where you spoke very positively about China's economic model. I think China's rise over the past
