From Wall Street to the Great Wall shows you how to safely invest in the expanding Chinese economy. Filled with in-depth insight and expert advice, this book provides you with a step-by-step template on how to cut across cultural, language, and geographical barriers and identify potential investment opportunities in one of the hottest markets in the world.
Introduction:
This book presents an overview of the current situation, the background, and the potential for investment in China and in its potentially lucrative industries. Equally important, the book provides suggestions for exactly how capital can be invested without having to move funds overseas.
In many countries, including the United States, the complexity of opening accounts in foreign countries, working with stock exchange rules dissimilar to their domestic exchanges, and managing risks is simply too extensive. As a consequence, many investors who desire multinational asset allocation or who recognize the potential in China’s market have simply decided that, without more knowledge, it is not prudent to attempt to move funds into that market.
This book shows you how you can invest directly in China’s emerging growth boom—without the complexity and risk associated with investing overseas. Using domestic outlets, you can become an international investor. This book explains not only how to move money into the Asian market safely and easily; it also provides you with vast resources for analysis and identification of profitable companies and industries.
We present information to you in two sections of this book. Part I, A Premise for a New World View, demonstrates how China is emerging as the leading economic power in the twentyfirst century. In Part II, Methods and Strategies in the New Market, you will discover exactly how China is growing and which industries are the strongest.

This book is based on outdated and incorrect statistics that have been reexamined by the World Bank in 2007 and found to contain gross errors. China does not have a gross domestic product in the $10-$11 trillion range,as compared to the American gross domestic product of nearly $13 trillion.China’s economy had a gross domestic product of not more than $6 trillion. The same kinds of errors exist with respect to China’s yearly growth rate.The annual growth rate is ,in fact,about half of what China has claimed it to be.
Another error concerns the buying power of China’s alleged large middle class.The errors in the estimates of the size of China’s “growing ” middle class are also large. China’s middle class may number no more than 100 million out of a population of 1.4 billion.
The recommendations in this book are highly dubious. It is a well known fact that 2nd and 3rd World statistics are ,in general,unreliable ,inaccurate,and always open to major revisions.
Readers of this book need to get their hands on the latest 2007 World Bank report. Many other such countries have also had major downward revisions done to their gross domestic product estimate,annual growth rate estimates ,and purported size of their middle classes in this report.
