Chuck Jaffe: Chinese Stocks Are Coming To Your Mutual Funds; Read This Before You Dive In

FYI: For decades, money managers and investors have been talking about getting the “pure play.

It’s investment jargon for investing with a laser focus, getting the specific type of business or activity you are looking for. When Internet funds first started in the late 1990s, the pure-play issues eliminated the retailers who happened to sell through a website in addition to a network of stores, and instead focused on e-tailers or companies building Internet infrastructure.

Investors are about to get the purest play they have ever had on the hottest market in the world, and while that sounds like a great idea, it comes with some potential side effects that investors should at least be familiar with.
Regards,
Ted
