china leaps

[jackdaww]

.

around 15% rise in china ETF's and IT's today . FTSE100 rise just 1.5%

DAK why ?

probably because we didn't plummet as much as they did
They are over 45% below their 52 week high
The FTSE is by comparison is down by 5%

This gives reasons for recent falls and yesterday's rise.

Not for me, it still gives me the "please pay us money" page.

I think it'll do that if you've already opened the page using the initial 'proper' FT link in that browser session.

Try closing your browser, clearing cookies, and then opening another browser session and just trying the Google link - that should work...

Nah it's all right. I haven't cleared cookies for years and I'm not going to start now.

Just a guess, but it seems that China won't be supporting Russia with arms sales. Such a decision would have resulted in a worldwide boycott of Chinese goods which, though difficult, would be catastrophic for China.

I still remember boycotting Chinese goods after the Tienanmen massacre. It wasn't that difficult then since there were still loads of things 'Made in Taiwan' or 'Made in Japan', but these days....? What isn't made in China?

So it's back to an orange in the kids' Christmas stocking instead of the latest plastic 'must have' toy!
