No more upstairs downstairs , the maid is out trading
TELEGRAPH UK: Chinese maids play the markets
This analyst - whose name I know but have agreed not to mention, largely because he is afraid of upsetting his wife - is among the more respected commentators on China's markets, but while the benchmark Shanghai Composite Index was soaring 130% last year, he saw a personal return from his share portfolio of just 5%.
Worse still, among the millions of Chinese who were playing the markets and winning, our analyst found himself outperformed by, of all people, his family's maid.
