The timing is certainly right. There are a whole new set of issues that China need to worry about, right?
Think about it. China is now run by the most corrupted regime ever. Xi JP's brother-in-law can get you approvals for anything in China so long you can afford it. Perpetuality in leadership is to allow Vice-President Wang Qishan to takeover Xi JP if he is ever ousted. Wang's notorious team chased Li Kashing out of China and is taking over Anbang and HNA Group.
In recent years, Chinese municipals and State-owned enterprises are issuing as much debts as US annually while the US economy is almost double of China? Is China dealing with anything worse than the real trade war (Japan fought a 20-years trade war with US and sank many Japanese Prime Ministers), or rising global interest rates, and many more I don’t even need to list.
Bitcoin is struggling to stay afloat and market believes that Chinese startups have been accumulating bitcoins (and other virtual currencies); because they believe that over 80% of bitcoins have been mined, so Bitcoin will eventually be US$100,000 or US$1million. WTF!!! Bitcoin is now struggling to stay above US$6000 now, down from US$19000 in December 2017. Xiaomi's staggering US$1billion quarterly (not annual) loss and Mobike & OFO's cashflow problems are now rumored to the repercussion of bitcoin's demise. When Bitcoin sinks below US$5000, hell has a special place for startups that appeared to have a functional business but speculating bitcoins behind the scene.
I agree that all these issues and rumors are purely bearish conspiracies which a seasoned investor should be able to judge.
Or rather, a prudent investor should understand when there is no smoke without fire.
