China: Is it time to go tactical long?

Now, BABA is breaking out and today KWEB 6.7%.

Chinese Index vs SPY is never this low and China is trading below < 8 PE. I know there are folks who feel China is uninvestable, If you have such strong views, please ignore this post.

I think China is going to have a short-term outperformance. I already have exposure through BABA. I will be opening some long position via KWEB.

This is from BAC, they were talking about how crowded Mag-7 long is, but equally interesting is how crowded short Chinese stocks are. Any positive news from China, the stocks could rally. But Chinese economy is not showing much life. Japan is in recession, so is EU. So China being an export economy how much better they can be?
