China stocks drop by 6%

by Tony Sagami on August 17, 2009

Chinese stocks are like the dot-com stocks on during the tech bubble in that they make huge moves up and huge moves down.

The reason I point that out is that the Shanghai index dropped by 6% yesterday and I want investors to understand that what looks like a big drop is actually quite normal.

Plus, the reason for the drop is worries about a deepening U.S. recession and the weak consumer confidence numbers from the University of Michigan last Friday.
