Since the IPO on May 27th, the company has gone up in value by ten cents a share a day, which happens to be the limit in China’s state-regulated stock market exchange. The regulations don’t seem to be keeping anyone from making off like bandits, though, as the Shanghai Composite Index has experienced a reported 58 percent surge in value over the past year alone, and the surge has created more than 75 billionaires in China in that span of time....
