  • Good for Your Health (and Portfolio)September 5, 2008

    One of my favorite China Strategy companies just reported its second-quarter earnings, and boy were they impressive!

But this isn't the first time this company has reported quarterly growth in the double digits -- it has shown consistent, impressive growth for the past few quarters. I look for more profits to come, so read on to learn more.

But, there is one car manufacturer that is bucking the trend, as it is about to post a modest gain in August sales, and its new endeavor into electric vehicles is set to be a hit. So read on to get revved up about this trend.

  • Will China Win Stock Market Gold?August 15, 2008

    Beijing is being an excellent host for the Olympic Games, and China is getting a ton of exposure on the international level.

  • New Energy Wave: Electric CarsAugust 1, 2008

    In the past few months, it has been clearer than ever that the U.S. must find other sources of energy besides oil. The earth's oil supply is now pinched tighter than ever, and considering that it not and unlimited energy source, I think now is the best time to shift towards another way to power our cars. And right now, I think the best alternative energy source for this is electric. Read on to learn about the new wave of electric cars, and how you can profit.

2008 June

  • Soaking up the SunJune 23, 2008

    The world is finally shifting from its reliance on non-renewable sources of energy like oil to other energy sources that are renewable and more environmentally friendly. I am very excited about this movement, especially since one of the new energy favorites is solar. In fact, there is some great technology that is coming along with the development of solar power, and I think that it presents us with a great opportunity for investment. Read on to learn more.

  • Going North for OilJune 19, 2008

    Oil prices are on the rise, and demand for the resource is higher than ever. Major oil reserves are being maxed out, and to replace them, companies are frantically looking all over the earth for new sources of oil. Well, one company has found oil in Canadian oil sands, and I am recommending that you get in on this energy play before everyone else does, too.

2008 May

  • A Smart New OpportunityMay 23, 2008

    While on the Beijing subway a few weeks ago, I noticed that there was at least on TV display inside every subway train. But it wasn't just ads that were flashing – there was programming, too. I thought combining the popularity of public transportation with content and ads was a smart move, and that's why I am watching a company that is responsible for it.

  • Big Player in Offshore DrillingMay 17, 2008

    As demand for oil remands strong and more reserves need to be discovered, this international offshore driller will likely lead the exploration. I am keeping a watchful eye on this company, especially since it is set to profit from its offshore drilling projects and worldwide oil demand.

2008 April

  • A Class ActApril 18, 2008

    Because of my boots-on-the-ground strategy, I give subscribers my first-hand assesments of companies. That's why, during a recent visit to Beijing, I visited the headquarters of a private educational service in China. I wanted to assess the company's long-term advantage and whether it can be sustained. I was able to sit in on a few of its classes, and let me just say, I was impressed.

2008 March

  • Buy this Dominant LeaderMarch 1, 2008

    As I've been telling you recently in our weekly Dispatches, the valuation of Chinese stocks is coming down to more reasonable levels. With high-quality China stocks now selling at lower P/E ratios, I believe it's time to add a new company to our portfolio. Many of you are probably already familiar with this fast-growing company.

2008 February

  • A New Energy OpportunityFebruary 1, 2008

    As oil prices climb higher, cheap alternative energy has become a big topic of interest for investors. We've been able to make money with one solar play but when it comes down to it, good old-fashioned coal remains one of the cheapest and most efficient ways to produce energy. Today, I have a new buy from which to profit from -- a major Chinese coal producer.
