Ron what are you thinking? Where did you get your information? Ref yours, "The number I've seen is closer to US$20M".

Hmmm

Ref; Boomberg, "Stocks may plummet on Monday if the government steps back from the market. Since Aug. 14, Hong Kong bought about US$12.5 billion of equities to safeguard stocks, the Hong Kong dollar and the city's slumping economy.

In a dramatic climax to the intervention, Hong Kong bought almost HK$58 billion (US$7.5 billion) of stock on Friday alone and said it will propose curbs on stock and futures trading. It was the busiest day of trading in the exchange's history".

The Hong Kong and Shanghai Bank has a new partner. The Government of HOng Kong that has bought huge number of HSBC shares.

My best to you,
