From Wall Street to the Great Wall How Investors Can Profit From China s Booming Economy

Description

From the million-copy-selling author of
A Random Walk Down Wall Street,

the perfect guide to investing in the next economic giant.




It is no secret that China has the worlds fastest growing economy. The trick is how average investors can tap into the opportunities it affords and realize the benefits that at first appear to be the exclusive domain of financial professionals.
In From Wall Street to the Great Wall

longtime friend and advisor to ordinary investors Burton G. Malkiel, together with a carefully selected team of coauthors, now gives them China.



A country of staggering scale, with an immense and often bewildering history, China can overwhelm even the most dedicated student. Thats why Malkiel takes great care in explaining why and how the Chinese economy is poised for significant gains in the near future. Beginning with a compact tour of five hundred years of Chinese history and culture, he then zeroes in on the Mao years and the rise of the reformist government of Deng Xiaoping offering readers a footing in this unique investing environment.



In the breezy, irreverent style that has become his trademark, Malkiel goes beyond the type and investigates the Chinese stock market in depth, estimating its efficiency and highlighting the best bets among Chinese firms and industries. In addition he identifies multinational corporations in the United States and elsewhere that are likely to benefit from Chinas explosive growth. Commodities, real estate, and art and collectibles also come under scrutiny as Malkiel leaves no investment possibility unexamined.



In the books final section Malkiel brings his broad experience and proven investment track record to bear in offering a variety of investment strategies for China, each one of them as clear-eyed and fad-free as those found in his classic

A Random Walk Down Wall Street.






The juggernaut that is the Chinese economy will no doubt steam ahead into the future, with or without us. For the investors looking to discover what this new market is all about,
From Wall Street to the Great Wall

is an invaluable resource.

"From Wall Street to the Great Wall conducts a whirlwind tour of the Chinese investment scene, starting with a primer on
Chinas history and culture,

continuing with a description of the investment environment, and finishing with specific advice on incorporating Chinese assets into a diversified portfolio. Investors of all stripes will benefit from Burt Malkiels powerful case for outsized exposure to the most compelling opportunity of the early twenty-first century."




David Swensen, chief investment officer



Yale University, and author of Unconventional Success



A fundamental approach to personal investment




"Malkiel and his coauthors provide a fascinating non-random walk through the opportunities and risks offered by the Chinese financial markets. Their highly readable description of the centuries-long evolution of the Chinese political and economic system sets the stage and puts the current rapid growth in the proper historical context. This book includes a wide-ranging and practical review of the ways in which individuals might incorporate a China strategy into their investment portfolios."

"A classic explanation of the securities markets . . . A Random Walk has set thousands of investors on a straight path since it was first published in 1973... A lucid mix of the theoretical and the pragmatic".
