TWO weeks ago, I was once again in Guangzhou. Besides meeting government officials, I had the opportunity to spend time in several Chinese financial institutions to share how advice should be given.
Coincidentally, I arrived in the city on Oct 8, when Chinese stocks rose 5.9 per cent as if to welcome me. The rise was fuelled by the government’s pledge of fiscal stimulus. Because Chinese markets have suffered a three-year drought, financial institutions were busily putting in trades for investors who did not want to miss this rally, convinced that the rebound was finally happening.

With that, they quickly departed.
