China's Rate Cuts Spark Flashbacks Of US 2008 Financial Meltdown
Portfolio Pulse from Aaron Bry
Chinese stocks have been hit hard due to concerns about China's economic growth and surprise rate cuts. China's central bank reduced the lending rate for its 1-year bonds but kept the 5-year bond interest rates steady. Analyst Adam Button sees similarities between China's economic situation and the U.S. crisis of 2008. The uncertainty has led to a sharp decline in a number of Chinese stocks like Alibaba Group (NYSE:BABA), JD.Com Inc (NASDAQ:JD), which are among the holdings in the KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF (NYSE:KWEB).
