A severe tightening of Chinese firms is taking shape in the U.S: is #Washington planning to catch two birds π¦ π¦ with one stone β
More than 80 U.S.-listed Chinese #stocks, including JD.com and #Pinduoduo, have been included in a new list of pre-delisting (i.e., forced exit from the exchange), with a total of 105 #Chinese stocks on the list.
That's deeply tied to the ability of the #HongKong market to raise funds after the National Security Act, which restricted its #freedom, is not equal to before, and it will be difficult to replace the delisting of Chinese #technology stocks in the United States with other #funds.
U.S. Secretary of State #Blinken had originally planned to give a speech on Thursday (May 5), U.S. time, to announce the U.S. government's new plan to deal with #China, but Blinken's speech was delayed due to the coronavirus diagnosis.
However, the #UnitedStates continued to take action against #China. The delisting list already existed, but it only contained 45 companies, but now there are 125 - and they will have until May 25 to file counterclaims.
According to the #Foreign Company Accountability #Act (#HFCAA) passed by the U.S. #Congress in December 2020, companies listed in the U.S. are required to open the company accounting information to the relevant U.S. auditing agencies.
If #companies on the list, refuse the #audit#requirements for three consecutive years they will run the risk of being #delisted, and this also applies to newly listed companies.
In this regard,#Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman #ZhaoLijian said that Chinese #securities regulators have been communicating with the relevant U.S. departments.
For #China, delisting is not obvious and will depend on the results of the US-China talks π¨οΈ
