Details	:	A recent cool topic depicted on most newspaper. A trend of investment from China since the last few years. This is due to hot money growing from China market with the following major reasons : China becomes very rich RMB earns the exchange rate at higher side against Hong Kong currency Peoples from China wish to gain big profit by introducing a mechanism of generating cash from financial commodities such as stamps collecting, banknotes collecting and coin collecting other than traditional investments such as properties, gold, stock market, antique paintings and oil paintings.
