  1. The U.S. government, along with financial institutions and venture capitalists, typically avoids high-risk investments that lack clear and sustainable returns or seem too good to be true. These entities focus on stability and long-term profitability, carefully assessing potential risks such as market volatility, regulatory challenges, or unrealistic claims of profit. In the case of Hong Kong, the U.S. imposed sanctions and froze assets due to concerns over capital flight, the potential misuse of Hong Kong’s financial systems to support China’s economy and military, and the enforcement of the National Security Law, which significantly eroded Hong Kong’s autonomy and civil liberties. The law strengthened Beijing’s control, criminalized dissent, and led to the imprisonment of opposition figures. Furthermore, the U.S. took action against Hong Kong and China-owned cargo operations on U.S. soil over national security concerns, including drug trafficking, counterfeit goods, and intellectual property theft.:face-blue-wide-eyes:
