AIA: Hard To Make The Case For China
iShares Asia 50 ETF has been affected by a recent China flash crash and general major declines in Chinese indices. China's internal issues, such as the collapsing property market and demographic concerns, further contribute to the underlying risks of Chinese stocks.
