Meh, I'm keeping an eye on this HSBC drama... think it's gonna take a while for them to figure out what's going on with their Asian business. People are saying they should break it off or whatever, but those in charge seem pretty sure they know what they're doing 
. Don't get me wrong, I'm not taking their side just 'cause they say everything is fine, but at the same time... it does seem like a solid strategy? 
Not convinced by all the sudden "concerns" about underperformance elsewhere tho... seems fishy to me

. But at the same time, I think it's good that Ping An is supporting the spin-off plan 
. It shows they see value in the Asian arm too.
... all these concerns about due diligence and customer data 
... it just feels like a dodgy move, you know? 
Still, I guess only time will tell if those worries are valid or not 
.
. Either they pull off this plan and get dividends up, or... well, let's just say it won't be pretty
