The Wall Street Journal and Dow Jones Newswires are looking for a Shanghai-based reporter to introduce the world’s wildest stock market to the world’s biggest investors.
The Shanghai market can jump or fall by 3% in minutes as armies of fast-trading individual investors pile in or out. Now that market is opening up to the world, and regulators hope the arrival of professional international investors will put some rationality into the trading.
But so far, the big money has stayed away. Responsibilities range from short daily items on the market to longer investigative features on dodgy practices. The reporter will cover regulation, brokerages, individual and professional investors and companies.
The goal will be to bring the market to life for a global audience.
Markets knowledge and proficiency in Mandarin are requirements. The reporter will be part of our fast-growing Asia markets team, which is based in Hong Kong, and will work closely with reporters all over the world.
