Top Emerging Markets - China

When China joined the World Trade Organization in 2001, it became a player in the global economy, and since then, China has grown about 9% annually -- more than four times the growth rate of the U.S.! China has become the world's second-largest economy, and double-digit GDP is now the norm -- China's GDP rate is currently around 11.4%, which is quite a change from the -1.6% rate in 1976.

China's economic emergence -- the greatest economic boom in the history of the world -- is filled with enormous opportunities. And as this once-great land modernizes and shifts to a market-driven economy, its economic growth will continue for the foreseeable future.

So, though the U.S. employment data isn't currently weighing too heavily on the market, the long-term effects will be very damaging. For now, our best investment bet is in China, taking advantage of their dramatic growth and speedy economic recovery. more...
