Canary in the coal mine

I'm of the contrarian type and think that 2018 will be the year we see a major correction. I feel that china may be the canary in the coal mine indicating the drop is coming so of course I've been manifest destiny-ing my prediction by focusing on negative issues with the country. This one seems to highlight many of the issues I see.

What do you all think, is this an enron/lehman etc. or just a blip on the radar?
