The Chinese government and hence their military essentially control all aspects of what goes on in that country. They are Communist afterall. Technically any investment in China helps their military so this really isn't news. This is just the White House kicking off the top of a preexisting ant hill to distract from his loss. DC may not let you buy stock in certain companies but you probably already buy products that those same companies had a hand in making in one way or another. There's nothing stopping those "31 forbidden" companies from creating shell companies for money to flow through. Chances are that China will retaliate just like they have been with the recent unproductive tariff wars that decimated American soy producers. If you really want to hurt China stop shopping at WalMart.
