China Hustle was revealing in yet another disgusting mega-financial fraud perpetuated on the public. Where it lacked was in resolution. There was a token effort by some of the principals to get the attention of Congress but there was little to no effort to involve the SEC or get them on camera as to their ignorance or non-action in this area.

This presentation was more about describing the problem than resolving it or presenting a plan to resolve, so it lacked a satisfying conclusion. Finally, this covered the time period of 2008 to 2012 so it's not clear this is a continuing problem or the fraud has run its course.

At the end, it threw some shade on the Alibaba IPO (2014) but nothing firm. Again, easy to throw shade, cast asperions, but we can watch "Real Housewives" for that. Investigative documentaries need to bring investigations to a close either with convictions, acquittals, or new laws/regs designed to address the problems.
