are you as brave as kathy wood? would you take on china tech risk at the moment?at the moment we think it is a little too early. it feels like a bet, like a gamble opposed to an investment. you don't quite know when it comes to this regulatory tightening. we don't know if the equity selloff was enough to really sharpen their minds or whether they feel that that is just the price they are willing to pay to reach the goals that they set out. remember, they have been very clear how they want to restructure the society and how they want to lower income and wealth inequality. that doesn't happen overnight. regulatory tightening is not going to disappear either. it is about managing the balance and clearly the balance has gone in one direction. now they seem to be going to the middle. but the uncertainty is still very high there. we're not taking that yet. tom: too early to dip your toe back into china. our guest will remain with us. coming up, oil steady after its biggest surge in months. iron ore jumping as investors look for more stimulus in china. all of the latest
