IAC/InterActiveCorp and Expedia chairman Barry Diller told reporters in the annual Allen & Co. gathering of media and technology moguls, Wednesday that he wasn’t concerned about the recent sell-off in Chinese stocks.
On the sidelines of the event, Diller was asked about the recent market woes in the world’s second-largest economy, he said: “No. Must I be?” Diller added “Listen, markets go up and down. [The] Chinese have a lot of production that they make, so I am not worried. Anyway, what do I know, it’s too early.”
