Freedom Calls: 8/6/26, “Where did all the crypto kids go… and SpaceX prepares for IPO lift-off"

From the team at Freedom Asset Management

Pictured below, an iconic view of the Landmark Mandarin Oriental entrance on Hong Kong's Queen's Road Central, just opposite Freedom's (still) new Hong Kong office location.  At our former "very well priced" offices, there seemed to be a few too many massage parlours; here, you will find more asset managers as neighbours, and we think that sets a better tone!  

Our Hong Kong business has now launched 2 institutional funds in the last 9 months investing in China A shares using our QFII allocation, and that business is going from strength to strength.  We are grateful to our local partners at UOB Kay Hian, CICC and Longqi Scientific as we build out that business.  I can see that we will be building more HK funds, including an Asian hedge fund of funds, over the next 12 months.

This week, for a change, we are not going to talk about the Iran war, or the Ukraine war.  Something tells me sadly that they will both still be going on next week.

Where did all the crypto kids go?
