Here is your contrarian indicator for the Chinese stock market:

| Quote: | China doesn't allow investors to sell shares they don't own and buy them back later, a practice known as short selling. That leaves brokers more reliant on buyers for commissions.
James Liu, who manages a $441 million China equity fund at Singapore-based APS Asset Management, said he sees overly-bullish calls on Chinese stocks as a sign that the strongest gains are over. He now uses them as a contrarian signal, avoiding shares with a lot of buy recommendations.
His APS China A Share Fund is the second best-performing hedge fund in the world for the past 12 months, with a total return of 139 percent. APS relies on its own team of 10 investment analysts for research: seven in Shanghai and three in Dongguan, close to the factories in the Pearl River Delta manufacturing belt. APS plans to set up a third office in Beijing this year. |
