Foreign investors have now taken out most of the money they put in China's stock market this year

• Foreign investors have dumped more than $25 billion worth of Chinese shares this year, the Financial Times said.
• That means 77% of the money they previously invested in China's stock market is now gone.
• Meanwhile, other regional markets have gained, further diminishing China's competitiveness.

More than three-fourths of offshore investment in Chinese stocks has been withdrawn this year, with foreign net purchases nearing their smallest annual amount since 2015, the Financial Times reported. 

The capital flight has been rapid as well.
