Here’s the Guardian article that explains what Chinese are calling “Circuit Breakers” mechanisms they’ve installed now on their markets....seems that despite China’s wanting free markets etc. the government will still determine what will flow or not and when....

Sell all you can afford and buy cash. Keep it in the bank, under you mattress and in your pocket.

Bury some in the back yard.

But, by all means, buy and hold cash.

China’s economy is the perfect definition of a paper tiger.

Wonder how truthfully the True vigger and vitality of their military really is ?

Is the steel of their naval ships up to snuff ?

To answer this question is to look at the quality control of their construction secter.

They're trying to wait for Obama to get out of office for the next 'correction' to hit.
So they can blame it on Pres. Trump
Not going to work.
Not with Trump, Cruz maybe, but not Trump.

That’s one good thing about having nothing in the first place, you have nothing to lose.

Me wonders, the central commie planners in China know something that the rest of the country and the world doesn’t ? As in “ WE BETTED THE FARM AND WE ARE OUT OF FREAKING MONEY AND WE CANT LET THE POPULUS AND WORLD BANKS KNOW IT “

Saturday’s Barrons recommended dividend stocks and junk bonds (carefully chosen of course).

If you have not yet seen The Big Short, do so at once, see it twice if you are not market savvy. See how the BIG BOYS work, neglect, gamble to destroy us all.

Are you THAT uninformed, that you don’t know that our markets have the same stop measures and have had them since the CRASH OF 1987?

Under the mechanism which only became effective Monday, a move of 5 percent in the CSI 300 triggers a 15-minute halt for stocks, options and index futures, while a move of 7 percent ‘close the market for the rest of the day’.

...

These mechanisms cause selloffs because people want to sell before the market shuts down if there is the slightest hint of panic.
