Strait Talk for Taiwan, China

Taiwan's stock market is up 46% in 2009 on hopes for closer ties with China. But there's a danger investors are being too optimistic.

"The Chinese use two brush strokes to write the word 'crisis.' One brush stroke stands for
danger; the other for opportunity. In a crisis, be aware of the danger - but recognize the opportunity." -J. Kennedy
