The Effect of China's Decline

Filed in archive Opinions & Insights on February 28, 2007

As you all know, China recently experienced a sudden drawback when it comes to their stocks. This drawback was the reason why the whole stock exchange experienced a rather horrible situation in the past days.

The effect just shows how significant China is economically to the whole world. This leads us to the question on how outsourcing could be affected by this sudden shift. I think the direct effects are not yet felt right now but in the coming weeks, it would definitely be felt.

Though I am not an expert in the stock market, I dare say that the negativity that China had experienced would reflect in the whole outsourcing industry because as you all know, China has plans for their outsourcing industry.

I just hope that China would be able to rise from this recent experience.
