LPH - No doubt Geoinvesting didn't have the same problem. Since that now forgotten stock symbol for the hog farm company went dark personally I wouldn't even touch Baidu. There are plenty of ways to get exposure to China without buying Chinese companies.
I made some nice coin on LPH as I'm sure many did but it goes to show that at best they are a very short term trading vehicle and probably belong more on those types of boards IMO
"The man of system, on the contrary, is apt to be very wise in his own conceit; and is often so enamored with the supposed beauty of his own ideal plan of government, that he cannot suffer the smallest deviation from any part of it." - Adam Smith 1723-179
