According to The Kobeissi Letter, S&P 500 companies have generated $1.2 trillion in revenue from Chinese consumers over the last 12 months, as reported by Apollo. This amount is four times larger than the total US trade deficit with China, highlighting that approximately 7% of S&P 500 revenues are directly tied to the Chinese economy (source: The Kobeissi Letter on Twitter, May 10, 2025). For cryptocurrency traders, this substantial exposure means that any shifts in US-China economic relations or Chinese consumer demand could significantly impact US equity markets, which often correlate with crypto market sentiment and liquidity.
