Most of them channel money back to their homeland. They do NOT import skills to HK. Go to Nathan Road Tsim Sha Tsui. See how many end up as security guards. That's not prosperity of economy, but just drag on to the problem demographically. There's not much R&D to speak of in HK that drive the economy. What happen if HK loses "gateway-to-China" status ? How many people can HK sustain ? 10 million ??? Don't kid yourself.

kowloon city

Good grief Jay
Just noticed a Canadian ETF all in gold (the Spicer family that started Central Fund that has both gold and silver, I bought into them first) I am into last couple of years is up 3.25% in one day, on seven times nl volume, suggesting somebody just discovered the yellow metal, or maybe it is just Canadian oil sand trust folks bailing. I prefer my portion of yellow iron in my hand...yeah Mq, we are crazy so don't fret your QCOM
