1. Peter Lowman:

   After a lot of sabre-rattling, we are seeing Shanghai suffering a lot more than Wall Street, so clearly the first round (of trade war) has been won by America. Unfortunately, that then overflows into emerging markets and Europe, so it's not a pretty time for investors.

2. Andy Chen:

   The regular testing requirements are meant to improve the zero-COVID strategy, the end goal is to keep the virus under control while avoiding another Shanghai-like lockdown.

3. Rafa Nadal:

   I am very sad to announce that I won't be able to play in Shanghai this year. It is the second year in a row and in China I have great fans, but, as you all probably know, I had an inflammation on my left wrist during the Laver Cup and I haven't had the time to recover and practice to be ready... I hope to be back in Shanghai for the 2020 tournament.

4. Rajesh Varma:

   Did this rout make sense ? No, I don't see that. For the last couple of days I have been buying stocks, adding to those that I hold, just because the Shanghai index has dropped back to zero for the year, that doesn't mean that there won't be demand... I think a lot of short-term investors have been running around like headless chickens.

5. Jasen Wang:

   There are so many big companies here, it's very easy to find hardware development engineers, you don't have that kind of advantage in Beijing or Shanghai.
