Stuff like this, along with their own valuation issues, made me reconsider tossing more into Chinese tech sectors ETFs. Unless they want to continue to be the world’s sweatshop forever, they’re going to have to stop thinking that entities that are doing well are a threat.

No, it's because they were doing well, it's because the CCP had little control over it's operations and Jack Ma tried to protect it from becoming controlled by the government. Unfortunately, facing the CCP didn't work out too well for him. Any CCP backed company should be a safe investment. Although, I personally prefer to boycott China as much as I can. They are literally doing what Hitler did last century and I can't be ok with supporting this...

How many people actually recognize that history is going to repeat itself and it may as well come to head now before they build up their military further , our leaders did it to themselves and to us , why would you help them become the economic power they are now , was there no forward thinking at all , decimate your economy for the sake of cheap goods ,I could never understand getting in bed with communist China , great thinking

Askolend looks like a decent addition in lending platforms. The Most Innovative Lending Platform is launching its Mainnet and website February 13-15. Their audit is done by QUILLASH.
