After a three-week losing streak, it looks like we're heading back up closer to all-time highs.
So why does Shah say this is just a "kind-of rally" with all this seemingly good news?

Around the globe, economic fears are rising.
And the threat that stands out the most is China. Last week, China celebrated its 70th anniversary. A military parade showed off a hypersonic nuclear missile that can strike the heart of North America within 30 minutes.

Last Friday, a "flash crash" hit Chinese stocks trading on U.S. exchanges. China's $440 billion equivalent to Amazon, Alibaba, dropped 7% in just four minutes.
Those stocks tried to recover early in the week but are now back at the levels hit last Friday.
On the surface, it looked like a small market "blip," or hiccup. But the truth is, this was nothing less than a ferocious salvo of fire in a war, just as surely as if it'd been two destroyers at sea blasting away at each other.
It's a different kind of war, though – economic war.

Due to the immensity of the U.S. economy and $22 trillion "market cap" of our stock market, it's not very surprising when most American investors prefer not to invest beyond our borders.
But the truth is, owning foreign stocks can not only slash your risk, but boost your returns as well.

Some of the investment trends we talk about are downright electrifying.
Others, like Keith's "war, terrorism, and ugliness" trend, are nowhere as pleasant, but it's important to grapple with the issues head-on as globally oriented investors.
So far, U.S. financial markets have largely shaken off the mass unrest in Hong Kong, but that could instantly change.
Keith wants to make sure you're ready if it does...
