gone, disappeared! What actually happened to the giant sums of money moving into the Chinese markets? I'd say that the Chinese people are going to have to look seriously at themselves and start digging into the facts, and start arresting people that scammed the Chinese people. I just hope that 'regular' people aren't hurt by these crooks who scammed their fellow citizens, but unfortunately, some will be hurt.
