  1. biggest F goes to Goldman Sachs who changed the rating to ‘overweight’ AFTER the stocks rallied up 30%, just to get wrecked the next day.

    Special shout- out also to Jim Cramer who- of course- also recommed to buy into Chinese stock before they crashed.

  2. What a joke of an headline.

    There’s a -8% after a spike of **39%** in 4 days. The total over the last 5 days remains a **+24%.**

  3. This is the best tl;dr I could make, [original](https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/oct/09/chinese-stocks-suffer-worst-fall-in-27-years-over-growth-concerns) reduced by 83%. (I’m a bot)

    > Stock markets in Asia fell sharply after China's top economic planning authority failed to announce further measures to improve flagging growth.

    > Richard Hunter, the head of markets for the trading platform Interactive Investor, described Wednesday's stock market falls as a reflection of "Investor disappointment".

    > According to official statistics, the urban youth unemployment rate reached 18.8% in August, while the urban unemployment rate across all age groups was 5.3%. There are growing concerns that China will miss its own 5% annual growth target, a relatively modest goal by the country's historical standards.

    Personally I would avoid all Asian equities for the next couple years – not worth the risk when you can buy boring stable North American and European equities and still have decent returns. When Berkshire was asked why they were offloading Asian positions they answered “location”. People thought it was the threat of China invading Taiwan I guess they just meant the region in general will do shit and was not worth the risk.

    Considering the amount of wealthy Chinese that try to get their money out of the country I don’t now why anyone would invest there.

  6. If people aren’t convinced by this article on how disingenuous western media’s coverage of China is then i don’t know what will

    Not only did this dip happen after a massive pump which is a fraction of the increase. Chinese stocks are literally pumping right now again as I type this

    They technically have the defense that they aren’t “lying” and therefore not a propaganda but every China doomsday article is like this. They frame things in a very specific way to make you come to a completely different conclusion than reality. This is why we get china is collapsing articles every 2 weeks for the past 10 years

    We must celebrate this! Every economic advantage has to be exploited to keep China down & from building up resources to challenge the FREE WORLD IN TAIWAN! Taiwan is not going Chinese! I studied with a military officer (LTC) and was the sponsor for he & his wife while at school here in the States- they were adamant they would fight to the last person standing
