Chinese Internet Stocks Signal Trouble

As of Monday afternoon, many of the leading Chinese internet stocks are coming under some distribution. Last night, China reported some economic data that was below analysts' expectations. This tells us that the world's hottest economy could be cooling off. Any slowdown in China could be problematic for the global economy.

Sina Corp (Nasdaq: SINA) is a leading Chinese internet stock that started the session very strong. The stock traded as high as $80.80 a share at the open. This afternoon, SINA is trading lower by $2.51 to $74.89 a share. This is a reversal of nearly $6.00 a share from the intra-day high. If the stock closes at this level it will have formed a bearish outside reversal day on the charts.

The volume is also slightly higher than most of the past trading days and this tells us that the sell-off has institutional conviction. The stock will have very good daily chart support around the $61.00 level. Short term traders can watch for intra-day support around the $73.00, and $70.66 levels.

Other leading Chinese internet stocks that are coming under intra-day selling pressure include Baidu Inc (Nasdaq: BIDU), Netease.com Inc (Nasdaq: NTES) and Sohu.com Inc (Nasdaq: SOHU). These leading Chinese internet stocks should be followed very closely over the next week or so. Further reversal days in the Chinese ADR's could be signal future problems ahead for the Chinese economy.

DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Equinox Fund Management, LLC (Equinox), an innovator in alternative investment funds with almost $1.5 billion under management, announced today the launch of the Equinox Alternative Strategy Platform (the Platform). Initially, the Platform comprises two mutual funds, featuring systematic and discretionary trading strategies developed by what Equinox believes to be leading Commodity Trading Advisors (CTAs). The Platform is designed to serve the needs of institutional investors seeking to efficiently diversify their portfolios through managed futures.

Equinox has been a leader in bringing the advantages of liquid alternative investment strategies to the individual investor, said Bob Enck, the CEO of Equinox Fund Management. With the launch of this platform, we aim to serve a wider group of investors and address the more specific interests and needs that come with experience in the asset class. This Platform presents an interesting alternative for institutions, as well as perhaps the more sophisticated individual investor. Daily liquidity, a comprehensive regulatory regime, and institutional fund pricing should make this an attractive product alternative to private funds or complicated separate accounts.

The individual funds on the Platform will offer investors exposure to a variety of trading program styles, including long-term trend following, short-term trend following, pattern recognition, and fundamental discretionary, beginning immediately with the flagship programs of John Locke Investments of Fontainebleau, France and Quality Capital Management of Weybridge, England. Additional trading programs will be added to the Platform during the second quarter, providing further flexibility for investors to access these individual CTA programs, build their own portfolio of managers, or make complementary allocations to existing multi-manager holdings.

Michel Serieyssol, Managing Director and Head of Strategic Account Sales at Equinox, said, The ongoing evolution of 1940 Act alternatives is a welcome development, not just for individual investors who have long been in need of more non-correlated investment options, but for institutional investors as well. The combination of competitive pricing, ease of use, and the highly-regulated domain of the mutual fund industry should invite a new level of institutional interest in CTA programs.

Equinox has been an innovator in alternative investment product development and distribution since its founding in 2003. The firm is focused on the liquid end of the alternative strategy spectrum, with a particular emphasis on managed futures. Equinox hopes that this Platform complements the product innovation originally exhibited by its launch of MutualHedge Frontier Legends Fund (Ticker: Ticker::MHFAX), the first actively managed mutual fund of CTA programs. MutualHedge has grown to more than $840 million of assets under management since its inception. Representing one of the largest alternative investment mutual funds, MutualHedge is available through broker-dealers and registered investment advisers across the country.

Bangalore: Women have struggled a lot to be accepted in a mans world. This is especially true for women in the field of investment as this is a male-dominated domain. Still, women have proved that they can perform equally well, and at times, even better than men in investing. BusinessInsider has named the following women for having die-hard attitude in the investment sector

Geraldine Weiss - Investment Advisor

Weiss is ranked among the pioneers of female investors. She started small but like all humble beginnings, she grew slowly but steadily as an investor. She is also one among the very first successful women investors. Interested in investing from a very early age, she has come a long way to be accepted as a valid investment advisor. She recalls what recruiters would tell her, "It was a man's world and women need not apply." Undefeated by criticism, she started her very own investment newsletter - Investment Quality Trends, in the year 1966. Her gender caused her further troubles when she received a negative reply to her newsletter advertisement. It said, "I can't imagine myself ever takinginvestmentadvicefrom a woman. Unless you take your advice from a man."She heeded the advice of the late Bronte sisters and sort of disguised her name. She started publishing her articles under the name of "G. Weiss." People though it was a man writing and Weiss newsletter soared high. It was not before the mid 70s that she revealed her identity, that too after a successful track record. Her very famous value-based anddividend-oriented stock-pickingstrategy has such a good outlook that it performs well even in dismal markets. Though she is retired now, her brain-child still employs her renowned strategy.

1: Go Go Women Power! Cheers!
