Christopher Wood, who writes the respected Greed and Fear note for brokerage CLSA, notes that capital fleeing China is "a real phenomenon."

The outflows here represent the change in foreign reserves, adjusting for currency variations and stripping out the current account surplus.
The numbers do sound huge, but, as Wood points out in the July 31 note, they barely make a dent in China's total foreign reserves of $3.69 trillion (£2.36 trillion). Still, it's a trend.
