Liftingmylifeup : I don't believe that generations have different stocks. I'd like to see actual data reflecting the accuracy of this article.

whqqq : I like Chinese technology stocks. For example, Tencent, the number one in the game industry, and Alibaba, the number one platform for e-commerce. I think they have great potential.
