Chinese Markets in Turmoil: 7 Stocks ARK Invest Is Dumping

For those late to the party, Chinese markets have been getting beat up, with the Hang Seng Index posting massive back-to-back losses. These losses have wiped out all of the gains for the index in 2021. Investors with Chinese stocks in their portfolio should pay heed as famed tech investor Cathie Wood is dumping some of ARK Invests’ Chinese holdings.

Precipitating this drop is a summit between China and the United States regarding the state of trade between these economic superpowers. As it stands now, there seems to be a “stalemate” between these two nations and they could be facing “serious difficulties,” leaving investors unsure of what’s to come.

At the same time, China’s antitrust regulator slapped a fine on Tencent for anti-competitive behavior, shaking confidence in major Chinese internet companies. DiDi was the victim of this recently as well.

Note that the Hang Seng was down 4.1% on Monday and 4.5% on Tuesday. The Shanghai Composite Index was down 2.3% and 2.5%, respectively.
