Chinese wealthy have been historically moving capital out of China regardless of the controls. It has been so prevalent that the newer housing development next to where I live doesn't have the number four in any of their street addresses.

Wouldn't a weakened Yuan make them want to move the wealth back, to capitalize on the new arbitrage?




What's with number 4? And, do you live in China or somewhere else where a lot of Chinese wealthy bought property?



The word for 4 and the word for death sound the same.
