Hello everyone,
I am a newbie here, but I've been bullish on Chinese stocks for a long time.
Chinese economy and Chinese stock markets have been out performed the US market for many over 10 consecutive years, and will contonue to out perform for many many more years, because:
1-Chinese are known to be hard workers. They work harder than American workers, and demand much less. Chinese companies surely have the advantage here.
2- Chinese government is not too pre-occupied with wars and does not have the burden of being the world's cop like the US government.
3- Chinese strict law enforcement keeps Chinse companies on their toes. If Maddoff and the like of people who run CIT, Fanny Mae, Feddie Max were in China, they would have been executed a long time ago. Here in the US, people who steals a TV set or some foods at the local stores are put in jail while crooked CEOs who run publci comkpanies to the ground get huge bonuses.
I have no doubt that Chinese stocks offer more profit potential and less risky than American stocks.
Look at this list. It is the world's most comprehensive list of Chinese ADRs. FXI is on the top 3 of the list:
