I'm thinking if not short, to move into something that would profit when Shanghai craps out. I thought I'd pass the issue along here as there are no doubt one or two sharp traders that know how to profit from Shanghai's misery when they do roll over.

You mean you are looking for an enormous correction Cheif???? !!!

:)

Surely it must correct something here. I think it will quadruple from there. ie SSEC 12,000 by 2010.

These are the mirroring ETFs that were available the last time I checked a few months ago...

ETF: PGJ, it follows the Gldn Dragon Halter index, all of the components trade also in the US stock markets, Stockcharts symbol: $HXC, fairly stable ratio overall on the 2 yr chart. I trade options on this one based on the internals of the components.

This one claims to follow FTSE/Xinhua China 25 Index, or 25 top companies only, stockcharts symbol: $HXC, but the ratio of the two is a bit off on the 2 yr chart...

Both of them also trade options...
