GOPDD: Congressman Warns Chinese Takeover Of Chicago Stock Exchange May Lead To Economic Warfare

By Jen - Feb 19, 2016

(Via Daily Caller) Congress is raising hell over a Chinese company with potential ties to the Chinese Community Party taking over the Chicago Stock Exchange in what appears to be a first-ever attempt by the Chinese to gain deep access into the $22 trillion U.S. equity markets.
Led by Rep. Robert Pittenger, 45 members of Congress demanded the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) conduct a full national security review of the transaction between the Chongqing Casin Enterprise Group and the Chicago Stock Exchange.
