Are you saying "not any more than the rest of us" as in "lots of people own stocks or investment accounts and many of those are in businesses profiting from China"?
I think the difference for me is that he's in a position to influence things since he's famous, and he has a ton of money from it already.
Norms need to invest in stocks to be able to retire or afford healthcare. He has the luxury to not need to worry about any of this.
But more importantly, stock holders can absolutely (and should) criticize the companies which they hold stocks in. They have power to vote and influence their business decisions. Owning stock does not mean you have to agree with existing decisions.
