Because Investors (capital I) are children with no long-term memory who think they're special. Or they have faith (misplaced IMO) that Xi will do the rational thing, which in their minds is "thing that makes money". Because China has no history of sacrificing its economy/peoples' quality of life for political reasons, or collapsing age demographics, nope it's all just one long glorious period of Deng Xiaoping-style openness (never-mind the man's direction was "hide your strength, bide your time") and over a billion potential consumers!!!
Anyone putting money into a Chinese company is betting that Xi and the CCP will allow said company to do things that make them money, and won't sacrifice said company for political gain. Good luck with that! The beatings will continue until regulation stops US investment in China altogether, and then the Investors will whine about it to no end.
