I invested in a Chinese Stock(pulled out of all of those stocks once i realized it could affect my clearance), and i have an active Top Secret Clearance. I am talking with my SSO Monday to report my investments, but I am worried it could affect my clearance status

No expert here, but it is always better to report it. It shows good faith. With the way funds are managed these days, I think there is probably only a couple that don't have Chinese companies in them, in one form or another, so you should be fine.

Thank you sir, I didn't know at the time that investing in foreign stocks could show up bad for my clearance. I am hopeful it is no big deal.

As it was explained to me, it only affects your clearance if you still have them. You would have to liquidate your assets in certain countries before being granted a clearance here

It shouldn’t affect it. But it’s good that you are reporting it, just in case.
