China is on fire! In the course of barely a decade, China has become the world's fastest-growing economy and it is now the world's most important marketplace. China produces more steel, coal, clothing, and toys than any other country in the world, and exports to the U.S.alone have grown by more than 1,500% since the 1990s. These are the figures that everyone talks about. What they don't know is that the Chinese consumer is the real growth driver and has become singularly important to the global economy. Because of the incredible growth in China, there are 1.3 billion people who suddenly have the ability to create personal wealth. This new reality has created an unprecedented opportunity for global investors to grow their portfolios and build their fortunes.
As big investors scramble for their piece of theChina pie, however, individual investors are being fed misinformation and conflicting reports that could lead to disastrous investments. Investing in China is easier to navigate and much more profitable when you know what to look for—and China Fireworks will show you the way.
Author Robert Hsu has been making money for years by watching China's growth and identifying trends that deliver the greatest return for investors. As one of the leading experts on investing in China's economy, he advises people every day on how a China strategy will truly take them to a new level of investing.
With this book, Hsu shows you how to build your fortune by participating in what he calls the "China Miracle." Hsu begins by explaining the key differences between China's major economic and geographic regions, as well as Hong Kong, providing insight into how consumer spending habits differ and what that means for you when building an investment strategy in China. He then shows investors how to take advantage of China's economic boom by identifying companies that are:
Providing the government of China with what it needs and the people of China with what they desire
Improving their bottom lines by effectively utilizing China's manufacturing capabilities
Excelling in the international marketplace thanks to the innovation of China's new class of entrepreneurs
Along the way, Hsu also details exactly how to find industries that are growing, pick industry leaders, make your buys, and sell for a profit.
With China Fireworks as your guide—along with some thoughtful research and common sense—you'll be well on your way to getting rich from the "China Miracle."
