I agree. China imports almost as much as it exports. You wouldn’t know it from our trade deficit. I’m checking into a china fund. The US boom and its stock market prospects are questionable, but China has real growth coming. It makes sense to be part of that. Investing in China is not a fad, though. It’s just watching what’s going on around you. (Something we Americans are not as good at… we tend to not look beyond our living rooms or borders.)
