China Stock Crash! Buy, Sell or Hold?
1089 segments
well it's panic selling in the chinese
stock markets the last couple of days
although the hang seng index is only
down 16
but certain companies especially in
technology uh the internet sector are
down like 40 50
education companies in china down 80 to
90 percent
why is this happening is because all
thanks to the government right the
chinese communist party they're really
cracking down on all these industry
imposing fines
banning certain activities imposing uh
certain regulations
so as an investor what should you do
should you
you know panic and sell like everyone
else get out while i still can
or should you hold your stocks or should
you buy more stock should you be greedy
when others are
fearful so in this video i'll be
breaking down
this entire crisis so why are they doing
this we're gonna
you know explore why is the government
doing this what's their
end game how am i managing my own
portfolio
and as typical investors should you be
taking advantage of this should you be
buying stocks at these discounts
or should you just be staying away
because it's not worth the risk
let's break it down in this video
so before we begin let me remind you
that in chinese
the word crisis is called wei si which
is made of two
root words which is whey which means
danger
and c which means opportunity so what
does it mean it means that in any crisis
you've got to be aware of the danger you
can get hurt but at the same time
recognize the opportunity because in
every crisis
there's an opportunity so let's take a
look at a timeline about what the
government has been doing and how it's
been cracking down on these different
industries
so all this started last year in 2020
when they
uh halted the end ipo of alibaba so ant
is the
fintech business of alibaba because they
said you're violating certain
financial technological laws in china
although i do believe that is because
and was posing a threat
to the chinese banks of which the
government has a big stake in it so it's
like don't screw up my banks
okay well then the second thing was they
find alibaba
about 2.8 billion dollars seems like a
lot but in terms of a per share basis
they're actually very small it's like a
slap on the wrist
they find alibaba for unfair
monopolistic practices
for example in alibaba what it did was
they told their merchants if you sell
with us
you can't sell on other e-commerce
platforms you can't sell on pin.org you
can sell on jd.com
you can only sell with us so the
government felt that that was really
unfair
there was unfair monopolistic practices
so they say stop that and again they
give them a fine all those very small
fine
so these are the two main things that
they did to alibaba
they're fine and stopping them from
making merchants sell exclusively on
their platforms
so as a result since last year alibaba's
down like 41
from the high then it started going
after other internet companies
so they then went after 10 10 cent
is the largest social media company in
china it's kind of like your facebook
and your paypal put together and tencent
is also the largest
uh video game online video game
company in the world not in china in the
world all right
so they went after tencent for a couple
of things number one was they blocked a
merger
of taoi and huya which are the two
largest video streaming companies in
china they blocked the merger
because they said if they merged they'd
be like 70 market share that would kill
all the competition so they killed that
merger
so tencent owns a 30 stake in both of
them so they killed that so that's one
thing
second thing was they find tencent
recently
uh for allowing sexually exploitive
content
of miners on their on their
their app all right and most recently
what happened was uh the government
ordered tencent music entertainment
which is a subsidiary of tencent
uh to end its exclusive music licensing
deals with global
record labels and they find them seventy
seven thousand dollars which again
impedance right so okay so that's what
they did and 10 cents
share price is down 40 from the high
because of all these
fines and regulations and of course
there were a lot of other stuff
the next one is of course dd so dd is
the largest
ride hailing app in china it's kind of
like the uber of china
and they recently went ipo they listed
on the
u.s stock exchange now a few days after
they listed china said wait a minute
you have been illegally collecting
user data and violating data protection
rules according to the cyber security
laws of china so
all your apps are suspended and we are
launching a full investigation we're
gonna
find you and so because of that dd
since it when ipo is down like 56
from the ipo price and most recently
they went after the private education
companies in china and they said that
you know you guys are creating
undue stress and pressure on the kids
you are charging exorbitant fees
and because of that parents kind of
fought the tutoring and they don't have
kids anymore and it's creating a
societal fracture
and you know because of that no more
profits for you guys right so
all education companies teaching the
curriculum has to be non-profit
and you can't take foreign capital um
and no more tutoring on weekends and
vacations no more tutoring for kids
under six years old
so basically the government's new policy
has killed
the entire private education sector
so sure enough the share prices of these
companies have fallen like 90
to 95 so with all this a lot of
investors are panickings like
who's next who's next to get whacked is
my company gonna go to zero
and they're freaking out they're panic
selling and a lot of people are going
they're looking at the government going
what the are you doing are you
crazy why are you killing your own
companies why are you killing your own
market
what do you want right so
here's the thing we have to understand
the government what's their endgame
why are they doing what they're doing
and only then
can you make money in china
there's an old saying by suzu the art of
war this
military general and he said that you
have to know your enemy
and know yourself and you can fight 100
battles without disaster
so to ask investors the chinese
government is kind of like the enemy
right
like the enemy so you've got to
understand where they're coming from at
the same time
understand yourself as an investor
what's your strategy
what's your investment strategy and only
then can you
build your wealth without disaster so
let's really understand
uh what's going on here when you invest
in china you have to understand it's a
totally different
political system it's a totally
different game like in the us they know
that
big technology companies are also
exploiting loopholes they are also
having a lot of unfair monopolistic
practices but the us government can't do
right because
of their democracy they debate till the
cows come home and a lot of politicians
they're in the pockets of these wealthy
entrepreneurs they are controlled
by them through lobbying so the us
government government can't do anything
right so it's like run free run free in
china it's different
in china remember that it's an
authoritarian government it's a
communist country where the government
has
absolute power over the private sector
and it can push through any regulation
they want anytime they want to do it
that's the first thing to understand
the second thing is that the chinese
government would always put national
interests
above individual interests it means in
china yeah you can get rich you can get
wealthy
but if you become too powerful and it
goes against the
national security of interest we will
kill you
now think about it right imagine you're
the chinese government and
you say to alibaba you know what we
elbowed out
google we elbowed out facebook we
elbowed up paper we got rid of all the
competition
so you are the monopoly and baba goes
yeah i'm the monopoly right but they got
too arrogant they got too big
and when alibaba started controlling all
the data of all the citizens
and started controlling the financial
system
the chinese government said no no no i
got rid of all these people
and now you want to play punk with me
now you think you're bigger than me
so that's how alibaba got fined and
that's how they are now forced to play
by the rules of the government
the other thing to understand is that in
china the government wants to balance
capitalism economic growth with
socialism which is the good of the
people
so yes they want economic growth and for
that to happen they need people to
be wealthier and that's why they need
these companies to keep growing and to
generate more profits so they won't kill
these companies they want the companies
to succeed
but at the same time they have to ensure
that the man on the street is not hurt
so they enact these regulations to
protect the citizens
like anti-trust regulations that can
create unfair pricing in the future and
hurt the people
at the end of the day we can be rewarded
handsomely investing in china and riding
on china's
growth and wealth by the same time you
have to understand which companies to
invest in
and you have to understand the
regulatory risk
these regulations may hurt the market in
the short term but they will create more
sustainable growth
in the long run so when we invest in
china we cannot use
the western playbook we have to
understand the regulatory risk
and to do our best to avoid the risk in
order to
generate those profits when investing in
china you have to understand the five
main regulatory risk the first is a risk
of
anti-trust crackdown so this is where
the government
wants to stop unfair monopolistic
practices by certain companies and there
are not many companies that
are monopoly so basically you've got
alibaba
you've got tencent you have got maituan
and maybe
jd or pintuato to name a few so
i own these big tech giants am i
concerned about this anti-trust
crackdown
not at all and the reason is this i
think that these
regulations to prevent unfair
monopolistic practices i think
is good for the long-term growth and
health of the industry so i don't have a
problem with it
and although they are putting certain
regulations like preventing certain
mergers and stopping
alibaba from exclusive arrangements with
their merchants
i don't think it's going to really
affect the dominant
positions of these companies uh
significantly
why because alibaba is already a huge
market share leader they've got a wide
economic mode they've over 60 market
share
same thing with 10 cents so all these
things would
benefit uh newer companies but it will
not significantly
alter the competitive advantage of these
tech giants so this is something that
i'm
not concerned about at all the second
risks are with companies that pose a
cyber security
threat to the chinese government and to
the national security of china
so basically they're concerned that
certain companies like dd
which is the right healing app and they
collect data
of millions and millions of citizens and
by listing on the u.s
exchange and being audited for example
or some oversight by
the foreign government they're afraid
that this
data this big data of citizens in china
will fall into foreign hands
so chinese government wants to ensure
that companies that
manage all this data the data stays in
china
and for companies that do not follow
these regulations they'll be harshly
punished
by the chinese government and this
exactly what happened to dd in fact
the government told dd that to delay the
ipo
because they were violating certain
cyber security laws
and they were not handling the private
data of
their customers properly but dd
basically went ahead anyway with the ipo
and gave a middle finger to the chinese
government so now the government is
really pissed off
and they're really gonna uh you know get
dd for this so
that's why for certain companies like dd
i would stay
away and i wouldn't dare to invest in
them right
so like i said you have to know which
companies are in real trouble and which
companies
which are pretty safe now the third
risk you have to understand is now this
risk doesn't come from
the chinese government it comes from the
us government
so recently last year the u.s government
has
passed a new bill which is the holding
foreign companies accountable act right
now this law states that uh companies
specifically chinese companies that are
listed on the u.s stock exchanges
they have to declare that they are not
owned or controlled by any foreign
government
now that's going to be tricky because i
can tell you that most of the chinese
companies are controlled
indirectly by the chinese government at
the same time
these chinese companies listed on the
u.s exchange
they have to be audited
by the pcaob which is the public company
accounting oversight board
for three consecutive years they must
have their accounts being audited by
this
board and if they are not
these companies companies will be banned
from trading
and delisted from the u.s stock
exchanges
so here's the problem the u.s government
is saying that these chinese companies
who are listed on the u.s exchange they
must be audited by
u.s authorities or they will be listed
in three years but the chinese
government will not allow that to happen
because they would not want the u.s
government to audit their companies and
be privy to a lot of
sensitive data now
currently let's take a look at this
currently there are about 248 chinese
companies
listed on the u.s exchanges with a total
market capitalization of 2.1 trillion
dollars
so what's going to happen in the worst
case scenario if the us government
delist all the chinese companies from
the u.s exchanges
that could create a major blow to
investors they'll lose a lot of money
and it's going to be a huge
impact on the financial markets
will the u.s government do this i'm not
sure i think it's unlikely but you never
know
and that's why personally for me when i
invest in chinese companies
i avoid the chinese companies listed on
the u.s markets
through abs american depository receipts
i feel more comfortable owning chinese
companies
listed directly on the hong kong
exchange
or listed on the shanghai exchange
now if for some reason you're not able
to invest in the hong kong or shanghai
stocks
because your broker doesn't allow you to
then my suggestion would be in the long
run
it is safer to own chinese etfs
exchange traded funds when they own the
companies
that are listed on hong kong and
shanghai rather than owning the ones
listed in the us because there is a risk
they could be
forced to delist from the markets and if
they are forced to delist
as an investor you may have problems
getting your money back
again this is a small risk but it could
happen now there's a fourth risk you
have to be aware about which is what we
call the variable
interest entity risk or vie risk
now this applies to again china stocks
listed
on the u.s markets now first you have to
understand that according to chinese law
foreigners are not allowed to own
chinese companies
in sensitive sectors like internet
business
okay so how was alibaba and tencent
and jd.com which are internet companies
how do they get
foreigners to own their shares well they
created a loophole
and what they did was they created a vie
structure
to bypass this chinese regulation
so what they did was this so for example
this is the actual alibaba for example
down here this is alibaba company now
again as
foreigners you can't legally own shares
in the actual
alibaba company so what they do is they
create another company
which is a wholly foreign-owned
enterprise in china
and another shell company which is in
the cayman islands
all right and so what happens is that
using a bunch of
contracts and agreements when you
buy the alibaba in the u.s
you're not actually buying the real
alibaba you're actually buying shares
in a cayman registered shell company
that owns another foreign
company in china that has got contracts
and agreements
with the actual alibaba company i know
it sounds a bit complicated but
basically
they did this to bypass this chinese
regulation so i have to tell you that
technically this is
in a gray area it is not technically 100
legal so again understand that if you
own u.s listed shares in alibaba or
tencent
or jd or pinto you don't actually
own shares in the real company you own
the depository receipts
in a company that has a contract with
the chinese firm that promises
to deliver the portion of profits to the
chinese firm
now here's the uh scary thing
you have to understand that shareholders
in these
vie structures own no real assets
and you have no legal recourse should
the chinese decide to
void the whole situation or the chinese
parent company decides to move assets
elsewhere
so in the worst case scenario if the
chinese government were to play
bastard and they say well i'm sorry this
vi structure is illegal
everyone who owns us uh listed baba or
tencent
or pinto auto you actually don't own
anything
you have got no legal recourse you are
actually owning a shell company all
right so
now will the chinese government do this
i doubt so if they do this they're gonna
basically destroy their reputation in
the world
and their whole financial market is
gonna suffer
so i don't think they're gonna do this
but again
there is a very small risk if they
pursue this nuclear option and that's
why i keep telling people that
if you want to invest in china stocks
and you want to be 100
safe buy the actual chinese shares
listed on hong kong or shanghai and not
the ones listed in the us
because you're not really buying the
company you're just buying a shell
company
with agreements with the real company
the fifth risk is that
in china any business that is
detrimental to the social good of the
country will get
whacked eventually like i never invested
in the chinese education companies like
edu or tal
and the reason is because i myself i am
in the education business in singapore i
own many learning centers where we tutor
kids in english and mathematics so i
understand the
business and industry very well and the
reason i didn't invest
in the chinese companies was i felt
uncomfortable and the reason is because
again the chinese
education companies they overly pressure
the students there they
hard sell them uh tutoring packages they
jack up the prices and a lot of students
there
you know they study like crazy and they
are suicidal many of them
and a lot of parents uh they can't
afford to have kids so
i felt it was really really
unsustainable and that's why i stayed
away
from those stocks and thank goodness
because now they've collapsed right
so again i say if you want to invest in
china you have to really
understand the business you're buying
you have to really understand the
industry
that it's in and if you and if you
actually understand
uh what's happening in china you'll know
that it was not a sustainable situation
and this crackdown on the education
companies was
a long time coming just to share view if
you
read some of these twitter feeds you
understand what's actually going on in
the education
industry over there all right it's like
it says over here right
like this guy he says it is referring to
his uh
teenage cousin a student right he's done
nothing
since the age of six other than study i
was sudden
seeing just how messed he became as a
product of the education system
being wired to do nothing other than
mindless studying so much so that he had
trouble picking out his
own clothes in the morning even at age
18. i saw my aunt
a bird through her paycheck to send her
son
through after-school programs just so
he's not disadvantaged relative to other
kids
ironically regular schools became a
sideshow while after school programs
became the main battleground for kids
my cousin would sleep through regular
school so he can have enough energy
left for after-school programs and many
regular school teachers complain
and they left their jobs to teach after
school because of the better pay it
affected the system in a major way so
basically the private education
system was really screwing up the public
system
and again causing parents to overpay for
tutoring and all this thing and that's
what caused the government to step in to
stop all these things not because they
are bastards or they want to
hurt investors but they had to balance
the societal good
with capitalism so as you guys know i've
always been investing in china as part
of my overall investment strategy so let
me share with you what's
my strategy moving forward if you take a
look at my portfolios
china makes up roughly about twenty
percent
of my overall portfolio the other eighty
percent being
us companies so the recent sell-off in
chinese stocks has definitely
impacted my portfolio's value in the
last couple of days
uh if you take a look at my right now my
up-to-date
uh year-to-date performance you can see
it's up about 21.41
uh from january to july for the year
now this was actually close to like 28
return for the first seven months but
because of the sell-off
it's down eight percentage points and
i'm only up 21
for the year so uh that's the impact
that the china
stocks sell off has had on my portfolio
uh if you take a look i'm owning 10 cent
alibaba and jd and for 10 cent my
uh average price was three eight nine
uh and now it's down to 450 it was at
700 so it's it dropped a lot
and reducing my profit temporarily
for alibaba my average price is 217
and now it's 180 so i'm currently down
like 18
below my purchase price and as an
investor that's fine
because as long as you know it's a great
company it's under value
it will rebound eventually it's going to
double and triple in the future
so short term it's a bit down uh no
worries made
all right and like jd.com i'm also
slightly below my average price of 290
now it's like 247
and again note that my chinese companies
i own are the ones in
on hong kong i've got etfs like the ashr
and the gxe china ets they sit on the
u.s markets
and they are still um higher
than my average price because i bought
them some time ago
uh but it's been down quite a lot since
the last couple of months
so you can see if you add up like for 10
cent i've got a four percent
exposure right alibaba five percent
exposure jd.com one percent exposure
for my china etfs five percent and one
point six five percent so if you edit
all together
basically my chinese exposure is 22
percent right now so what's really
important is as an investor
you must always diversify your portfolio
and not put too much into one
sector or one industry or one country if
it is a
developing emerging market so i always
tell people that
don't have more than 25 exposure to
emerging markets
uh china or anything like that so this
ensures that when it's a sell-off your
portfolio doesn't get too badly
hurt in the short term so what's my
strategy moving forward am i gonna buy
more shares now that it's
cheaper am i holding or am i going to
sell anything
now as an investor your decision about
whether to buy whole or sell must be
based on understanding the business
behind
the stock and not just selling because
you get emotional and you panic and oh
my god
and the worst time to sell is when
you're panicking when you're emotional
because you tend to sell
right at the bottom and the moment you
sell it bounces back up again
so you got to be cool about it right so
even if the price is way below your
purchase
price or is way down from the high you
got to look at it
logically from the business business
perspective
so the first question to ask would be
okay
so from the regulations and the policy
changes
how has it significantly altered the
fundamentals of the business
so based on what the government has done
has it changed the fundamental business
of alibaba
of tencent of dd of pintuator
of jd of the chinese education companies
and if so by how much
all right so that's the first question
to ask the second question would be
currently are the shares of the business
significantly undervalued or are they
still overvalued
and the last question would be will
these companies
continue to grow over time will they be
worth a lot more
six months a year two years from now so
the answer
depends on the individual company so i'm
just going to give you a few examples i
won't go through all the companies i'll
just go through
some of the companies and let's begin
with alibaba
so alibaba is the biggest e-commerce
company in china they've got over 60
market share and they're also into
the cloud enterprise so
uh currently the the price is down about
41 percent from the high as i'm speaking
right now it's still going down in the
market so maybe it's down to
about 42 or 43 percent from the high
right now
and if you calculate the intrinsic value
i'm not going to go into that but
basically that's what we do
in our programs now even taking into
account
uh that they are no longer having
exclusive merchants taking into account
that
uh certain regulations were imposed on
them no more nipo
the valuation i get is still about
313 us dollars for the us baba shares
and for the ones on hong kong exchange i
valued at about 303 dollars taking into
account all the regulatory
actions so currently it's trading at
well when i took this screen captures
for 191 right now i think it's down to
like 180 went down a bit more
so currently it's like about 40 40 to 43
under value right now so am i going to
sell alibaba of course not
why because it's still a great business
all right the sales are growing
profits are growing cash flow is growing
it's got huge cash it's got low debt
it's a great business
and to me this sell-off is purely
irrational it's purely
irrational panic now i'm not saying it
can't go lower of course it can go lower
in fact
when does the price bottom the price
bottoms
when there are no more sellers left when
are there no more sellers left
when the last person who wanted to sell
has sold and we call that capitulation
so capitulation is when the week holders
they panic they give up they sell and
once everyone
who wanted to sell has sold then it
bought them so it may bottom today it
may bottom tomorrow i don't know where
it's gonna bottom right but eventually
it will bottom
and over time it is gonna go back
uh way above its intrinsic value of 303
dollars so for this guy
i'm holding it will i be buying more i
won't be buying more
why because i already have a five
percent allocation
in my portfolio and that's my maximum
allocation but if i didn't have a five
percent allocation i would
buy more to that allocation so the
important thing is diversification
always have a fixed maximum allocation
of a stock in your portfolio once you
reach that maximum
you don't add more shares you just you
know hold it until it
eventually goes a lot higher uh that's
alibaba now for 10
cent um it's also
40 percent drop from the high right now
i think it's dropped to like 450 as well
so it's about you know 42
from the high the intrinsic value is
about
733 hong kong dollars and again this is
taking into account
all the regulations and fines imposed
upon them and based on their intrinsic
value they are still 37
undervalued so for tencent i think it's
a great company
and again i'm not selling anything in
fact i may be buying a bit more 10 cent
because
i'm slightly below 5 so i may add a bit
more shares to get
back to a five percent allocation if you
look at
past crashes of the stock you can see
that
uh this was back in 2018
when they uh the video games were
banned temporarily by the chinese
government at the time
uh the price fell 47 percent from the
high
before it eventually bottomed and it
went back up right so remember that
every panic will end
every crisis will end and when it ends
it will eventually rebound to what
is the fair value so you gotta uh
understand that right so right now it's
down like 40
45 percent it may go down a bit more all
the way down here you never know
but eventually when it bottoms it's
going to be a huge upside
for 10 cent holdings now if you take a
look at alibaba you can see that
again previous crashes this was down 53
back in 2015 and in 2018
2019 it was down like 39 so so far down
about 45
again it could go a bit lower even down
to 50 percent you never know
but again if you understand the
fundamentals of the business
you're cool with it right you don't
freak out you don't sell just hold it
it's going to go back higher again
and again does it apply for all
companies we hold all companies
no so for example dd now i don't own dd
shares because in the first place i
never like
the business model right to me uber
and grab and all these right healing
apps
they're in a very very low profit margin
industry and they compete with public
transport
so i never liked the business model in
the first place so i never bought it
right
um but if i did own it for example
i wouldn't want to hold on to it for too
long i wanna get out all right but again
uh i always learned that if you want to
sell a stock because it's a lousy
business uh don't sell at the low
remember nothing drops in a straight
line you'll like drop it go up you drop
it goes up so wait for a bit of a rally
to get out
if you don't believe in the business
anymore
personally for me like i said i don't
own this and i wouldn't want to own this
or even though it is slightly
undervalued
why because dd first of all it's not
making money it doesn't have consistent
profits
i don't think it's got a strong mode but
in addition
um the chinese government is really
pissed off at them
because they kind of like went against
the uh
advice of going ipo without clearing
their cyber security
uh uh violations
and you can see china's regulators
suspect dd's u.s listing was a
deliberate act of deceit
a portrayal that shows severity of
mistrust
and deity is at a risk of unprecedented
penalties
so the government is now thinking about
how to punish them and they said it's
going to be unprecedented so it could be
anything from a huge
fine to force the listing to withdrawal
of their
us shares so no idea how it's gonna play
out it could get really ugly so
uh i wouldn't hold on to dd uh
personally all right so again there are
many many examples
uh i can't go through all of them but
those are a few examples
finally in the edutech company or the
private education company
um i think it's over i think because of
the regulations they have completely
dismantled their business models so i
don't think those
companies like edu or tal i don't think
they're ever going to get back
i don't think they're ever going to be
where they were in the past so
i don't hold those stocks and if i did
hold them i
i wouldn't have much hope in them in the
future right so it depends on the
individual companies
so let me summarize this pretty long
video uh with this
statement should you own chinese stocks
yes you can make a lot of money but you
could lose money as well if you
run foul of these regulations so number
one only own chinese stocks
if you truly understand the underlying
business
that you know it's a great business it's
got a wide mode
and it's not going to uh
go against any of those risks and
regulations i talked about
okay and if you're not confident enough
to pick
the right companies because there's so
many of them if you're not confident
then the best thing to do to get
exposure to chinese markets is to buy
the chinese etfs exchange traded funds
but to ensure that the etfs you buy the
companies they
hold are not listed on the us markets or
not too many of them at least
because again remember that these u.s
listed adrs
are constructed using those vie
structures which are technically illegal
and the us government could also force
them to deal it so there's
there's a bit of risk over there so i'd
rather hold etfs
that own chinese companies that are
listed on hong kong
or shanghai by owning ets we eliminate
company specific risk the final thing to
always understand is that
in investing in any market or any
company
never put all your eggs in one basket
because you never know what's going to
happen
okay always diversify to ensure that
each company and each sector has a small
allocation so if happens
your portfolio will still grow your
wealth will still
grow every single year all right so it's
all about diversification
and again finally remember that um
although the risk is small it's always
safest to haul
the chinese companies listed in hong
kong or shanghai because you
own the actual shares of the company so

The video analyzes the recent sell-off in Chinese stock markets caused by government crackdowns on various industries, such as big tech and private education. The speaker explains the government's perspective—balancing economic growth with societal stability—and categorizes the risks for investors. These risks include anti-trust measures, data security concerns, potential delisting from U.S. exchanges, the complexity of Variable Interest Entities (VIE), and government policies against industries detrimental to the social good. The speaker advocates for deep understanding of business fundamentals, diversification, and favoring shares listed on the Hong Kong or Shanghai exchanges over U.S.-listed ADRs to minimize regulatory and structural risk.
