Q: I understand the US is moving forward a bill that may cause the delisting of Chinese companies currently listed in US exchanges. I am holding BABA and ZTO (Cayman) for a few years now with good gains. What is going to happen to these currently listed companies if I continue to hold these stocks? Thanks.

Q: Is the delisting of Chinese companies on US stock exchanges a real possibility or more noise. How might Alibaba be impacted. Should investors sell and watch or ride it out. The senate bill would require that foreign companies let the Public Companies Accounting Oversight Board oversee the auditing of their financial records. Does Alibaba currently use American accounting methods - GAAP?

Q: Last year, I purchased ZDH in my mother's retirement account. She is close to 80. It has been a very poor performer, significantly underperforming the international indexes. Performance seemed to be reasonable prior to the market drop in the last few months. Morningstar now rates both ZDI (unhedged) and ZDH (hedged) as two stars, and it now falls to the 4th quartile for most time periods.

I would appreciate your views about ZDH. Would you continue to hold this ETF expecting that it will start to outperform the market, or would you sell it? Do you feel that it has dropped a lot since January due to its sector composition, and will bounce back? If you would sell it, what would you recommend? Dividends are not a priority, but looking for low to medium risk.

Thanks for your excellent advice.

Q: I recently read that this company is testing a plant based biodegradable plastic bottle.
Do you have any views?
Would this merit a speculative buy with potential of a huge upside? Thanks

Q: Hello 5i Team,
Excerpt from MarketWatch : "the Senate looks set to consider sweeping new legislation that could ultimately bar many Chinese companies from listing shares on U.S. exchanges, or otherwise raising money from American investors." I own ADRs in JD.com and I'm starting to wonder what would happen if they were delisted from the NASDAQ as a result of the above. I fear being stuck with my shares in the company and not be able to sell them at some point in the future. Should I sell them now as a precaution?
