Red China

[peanuts]

What are we supposed to do with this behemoth? A 9.8% drop in the Shanghai index for them today, has nearly all issues trading premarket in the red, this morning.

Is this an indication of more to come? Will future voltile action in the Chinese market be both a boon and bust for the US Market? The size of the Chinese market isn't nearly the size of the US market, but I wonder why it can affect the US by this degree. To me, I would think that it would be the opposite way around... the Chinese market (and ROW) should follow the drumbeat of the US Market.

Why do we see so much red this morning? Is it China, or something else...

I'm not sure, but I've had some great pork dumplings in Shanghai.

Looks like a buying opportunity to me, though I am not a market timer.

disjointing the currencies will alter markets
