China stocks soared the most in nearly seven years on Thursday after the government lowered a tax on equity trading, a move seen as an effort to boost the country's sagging markets. But Tim Seymour saw the move as a “flimsy attempt” at supporting one of the world’s most volatile economies.

Most Chinese stocks still have room to go lower, Seymour said, based on earnings expectations that are, in a lot of cases, already priced in. But some stories remain real – he’d still be a buyer of stocks that are seeing real, organic growth like China Mobile [CHL  Loading...      ()   ] or Baidu.com [BIDU  Loading...      ()   ], which just reported an earnings beat Thursday thanks to increased traffic.
