Mike Stathis recommended Chinese stocks several years before the 2008 financial crisis, enabling investors to capture astounding gains.
He also advised investors to get out of Chinese stocks (via H shares through the ETF, FXI) in early 2008, only to recommend reentering by late 2008, which would end up being the bottom.
Mike was bullish on Chinese stocks (FXI) for several years ever since he nailed the bottom in the Chinese stock market in November 2008.
But by 2015, he began to issue some warnings.
The first of these warnings are in the video below.
Years before investors realized the dangers of U.S.-listed Chinese shell companies, Mike warned about these SPACs.
He pointed to the lack of transparency and accountability seen in these companies, and reminded investors that these stocks were risky.
He discusses these risks in the video below.
Mike also points out that he believed the Chinese stock market was entering a bubble and that this bubble would either pop quickly or last for a long time.
Not long after the video was released the Chinese stock market entered a bubble, which popped by March 2015.
Finally, in this 2015 video Mike discussed that he believed the Chinese stock market would face a colossal blow up several years down the road.
Over the next several years after this video was released, Mike would go on to publish accurate research forecasting the Chinese economy and stock market (using FXI), enabling investors navigate the ups and downs of the Chinese stock market.
By 2018, Mike became very bearish on the Chinese stock market.
And by 2021, he predicted a collapse of the Chinese stock market.
In May 2022, Mike delivered what might be the world's single most comprehensive and insightful research presentation on the short-, intermediate-, and long-term fate of the Chinese economy and stock market called the China Report.
The China Report is a 5-hour webinar presentation containing over 250 slides detailing the past, present and future of China's economic growth and possible fate of its capital markets.
Among other things, the China Report predicted and detailed the real estate crisis seen today in China.
But there's so much more to the China Report.
