MATI Trader: What is going on in China?

“Stop with the bad news!”

That's the first thing I thought about today when I put finger to keyboard.

Unfortunately, though, you need to keep in the loop with what's going on with China's stock market crash. It will have an effect on your trading results.

You see, early on Wednesday, more than 1200 listed Chinese stocks halted. This means well over 40% of the stocks listed in the entire pool of 2,808 issues were affected.

The resulting billion dollar meltdown will affect millions of investors. And things are just getting started.

What you can do to save yourself from the Chinese Bubble

Wednesday, it was the largest trading halt in the history of China’s equity markets. By noon, the Shanghai Composite Index fell 3.9%. That takes it down 16% for a month-to-date loss.

And the same went with Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index. It fell 4.3% near the afternoon. What’s really worrying is that the U.S- listed Chinese stocks have been falling even faster than the Chinese listed stocks. This sends the signal to investors around the world that the Chinese economy is in a worse shape than we thought it was.

To support this fear, China’s national debt is sitting at $5.2 trillion. And with a population of 1,3 billion, each citizen will have to theoretically pay $3,879 to get the country out of debt.

Things aren’t looking good for China…

So today, I’m going to address all of your questions you have on the current Chinese crisis and what you can do to protect your trading account.

I trust these questions and answers will help you make wise decisions for how to tackle the markets with the Chinese Bubble bursting as we speak.
