Over the last three months, China—the country beat up most by President Trump and his team of “tariff men”—has outperformed the U.S. stock market by at least 100 basis points. That includes the mainland equity market known as the A-shares, which has been pummelled this year on account of the trade war. Adding insult to injury, investors are dumping U.S. stocks and bonds, and China is seeing fresh money pouring in. U.S. equity markets peaked at the end of January this year as investors started to pencil in impacts of trade tariffs on the macroeconomy. China may be seeing more money coming into its stock market than the U.S., but investors are throwing money away, at least in the short term.
