Chief Trainer Hazelle recently joined Michelle Martin on Money & Me on MONEY FM 89.3 to discuss a question many investors are beginning to ask:
Who could be China's next technology leaders beyond Alibaba and Tencent?
When investors talk about technology today, the spotlight is often on the US. The US remains home to many of the world's leading AI, semiconductor and technology companies. But focusing only on the US may mean missing another important story unfolding in China.
Some of the topics covered:
📌 Why China's technology ambitions extend beyond internet platforms
📌 How technological self-sufficiency is shaping innovation and investment
📌 The difference between hard tech and soft tech
📌 Portfolio considerations when gaining exposure to China's hard tech ecosystem
One investing lesson history keeps teaching us: tomorrow's winners don't always look like yesterday's winners.
Sometimes the biggest opportunities emerge where the market isn't looking.

Spent a wonderful evening at the Partners' Appreciation Event hosted by Tiger Brokers Singapore at GastroBeats 2026. 🙌
A big thank you to the 🐯 team for putting together a fun and memorable evening. From great food and live music to pickleball, photobooth activities, and catching up with fellow partners, it was a fantastic way to unwind and connect outside of work.
Unfortunately, despite having pickleball available, we spent all the time adding calories than burning them. 😅🍔

Last Friday, the S&P 500 fell 2.6% — its worst single-day decline of 2026 so far.
Moments like these are a useful reminder that volatility is not the exception in investing. It is part of the journey.
Even during some of the market's strongest years, investors still experienced sharp pullbacks along the way.
Historically, there have been 22 years where the S&P 500 delivered annual returns of more than 20%. Yet during those same years, the average worst trading day was a decline of 3.5%.
In 1997, the index suffered a nearly 7% one-day drop and still went on to finish the year up more than 30%.
Does this mean markets cannot fall further from here? Of course not.
But it does remind us that short-term declines are not unusual, even within powerful bull markets.
Successful investing is often less about predicting every market move and more about staying disciplined when volatility inevitably shows up.
