I can't move to China, but can I stash my money in Chinese investment? Where can I buy BYD and Xiaomi stock?

      Huh, figured you'd need an ADR for them.

          An ADR is buying a share of a foreign company from a US bank. You don't hold a "real" share where the company is actually listed, but a kind of surrogate on a local exchange.

          Traders like ADRs because they have higher volume. Look at the daily volume of trades, there is more liquidity.
