(Before It's News)

There has been some buzz over a post at Global Macro Monitor about the divergence between the Shanghai Composite and other global equity indices.

B4INREMOTE-aHR0cDovLzEuYnAuYmxvZ3Nwb3QuY29tLy1YMzYzNTJlSjRaSS9VREtKaFJkbC1ZSS9BQUFBQUFBQUNxUS90cWlNUk1LdDkwNC9zNDAwL2F1ZzE5X3NoYW5naGFpc3A1MDAuanBn

Both Abnormal Returns and Josh Brown have picked up on this and there seems to be some hang wringing over this apparent negative divergence.

The answer is simple – China’s current policy of growth at any price that results in profitless growth (see my previous post Crouching tiger, hidden profits).

Divergence explained.
