When I was travelling in Hong Kong a friend told me of a hotel tower that caught on fire twice in a year. Troubled, the owner consulted a feng shui "expert". He looked at the tower and concluded that the problem was the tower "looked like a cigarette". The solution, to build a pool on the top of the tower. The story goes, it never caught fire again. I'm not surprised that superstition has some sway over Asian markets.
