To The Moon

SEC has been identifying more companies under the Holding Foreign Companies Accountable Act (HFCAA). Majority are Chinese companies and their delisting from the US stock exchanges gets closer as each day passes. 37 of them have been identified thus far (I have excluded a handful of non-China companies) and out of which, 26 were given time to submit evidence for dispute. Here's the list: 1) BeiGene (BGNE) $BeiGene(BGNE)$is a biotech company that is listed in Hong Kong too (6160). 2) Yum China (YUMC)$Yum China Holdings, Inc.(YUMC)$operates KFC, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, COFFii & JOY, Huang Ji Huang, East Dawning, and Little Sheep in China. 3) Zai Lab (ZLAB) is a biotech company that is listed in Hong Kong too (9688). 4) ACM Research (ACMR) manufactures semiconductor equipment. 5) HUTCHMED (HCM) is a biotech company that is listed in Hong Kong too (13). 6) Weibo (WB) is a popular microblogging site, akin to Twitter, operating in China.

It is also listed in Singapore (HKB). 35) BEST (BEST) is a supply chain and logistics provider. 36) Li Auto (LI) is an EV maker and is listed in Hong Kong too (2015) 37) KE Holdings (BEKE) is an online and offline platform for housing transactions in China. We haven't seen an actual delisting happening yet. Those that have listings in Hong Kong is less of a concern if the shares are fungible - US ADRs can be converted to HK-listed shares. China has been trying to engage the US authorities on this matter and the last development was that China is willing to allow the companies to show their books to the Americans. But I am not hopeful as the US doesn't appear to be interested in that anymore and looks bent on delisting. It is thus better to avoid these ADRs.
