The following events we at FxWirePro feel are very much likely to happen -

‘Major downturn in a major commodity consuming nation’ – a very likely scenario in China.
‘Escalation of trade war with China’ – very likely under Trump administration

‘China deploys rig in disputed South China Sea’ – very much likely scenario. They already have militarized artificial islands.
