Hello readers!

Have you ever invested in China before? Maybe you’ve heard about the recent 轮胎关税 (tire tariffs) issue.  To be sure, a lot of people are investing here.  Some people buy shares in an 指数基金 (index fund), while others dream of one day running their own  私募 (private equity) venture.  Take a good long look at your 走势图 (trend charts) and do your best to predict the next 升跌 (rise and/or fall) to make your fortune.  Betting on downward trends of Chinese 股票 (stocks) is prohibited by Chinese 国家规定 (nationwide regulations), so don’t hedge your financial future on risky 赌博 (gambling) when someone offers you an opportunity to short a stock here.
