Secure Freedom Minute: Divest from the CCP Now!
British wit Samuel Johnson described second marriages as “the triumph of hope over experience.” So is Wall Street’s enthusiasm for sinking billions more of our money in Chinese Communist e-commerce conglomerate Alibaba.

Its founder, Jack Ma, ran afoul of Chinese dictator Xi Jinping, and his company was punished, resulting in a dramatic and protracted loss in share value. There is no guarantee that similar non-market forces won’t adversely impact U.S. investors in companies like Alibaba in the future.
