U.S. regulator freezes Chinese company IPOs over risk disclosures

https://www.reuters.com/business/finance/exclusive-us-regulator-freezes-chinese-company-ipos-over-risk-disclosures-2021-07-30/

SEC commissioner Allison Lee said on Tuesday that Chinese companies listed on U.S. stock exchanges must disclose to investors the risks of the Chinese government interfering in their businesses as part of their regular reporting obligations.

I guess they will have to add that into a big document that nobody bothers reading.

Makes life difficult for the companies that wish to IPO.

Yes even the suggestion that some of the 418 companies may have to delist if they don't meet US auditing requirements.

US investors subscribing to the IPO's have already lost many billions of $. All very well having lax listing rules. People will always exploit loop holes.

i'm just wondering if anyone has been tempted to "buy the dip".... or do you think it is still a bit too risky due to the recent chinese government interventions?

China risky?  Never considered it not to be.  

eastmidsaver

haha good point...  probably one of the most volatile sectors.

I bought a little Alibaba; it's my only Chinese holding and I don't intend to add much more.
