Good Work!!

I have read all your book. I have been followed most of jim roger's advice since last three years and made fortunes out of it. I invested heavily in oil drilling companies, refineries, oil explorers and infrastructure in starting of 2006 and I have amassed returns of around 800% on my capital investments. Following jim's advice that USD will drop against all currencies, I sold my Indian IT investments and shorted IT stocks around July 2007 when $ dropped against Indian rupee from 46 to 44. Right now it is 39 rupess against $ and I have made 200% returns by going short on Indian It stocks at right time. Then I took long positions in oil, gold around July 2007 and returns are everyones guess. On 7th Jan I hit biggest jackpot of my life, I shorted 20 lots Indian Nifty index at 6100, again following jim's advice that credit crunch will worsen in coming days and US economy will tumble. I sold my long positions on 21st January (when nifty reached 4300) with more than 1600% returns on my investment. Right now I am making investments in alternate energy and infrastructure companies in India by applying investment rules drafted by Warren Buffet. But A bull in china really helps me determine positions to take in indian market as India is running in parrallels to China.

China is the place to be!

I want to start off by saying this was an extremely interesting book. I read it fast. This book is a no nonsense view of what is taking place in China as well as a kind of "how to guide" for investing there. It is very broad based and should be a part of everyone's library especially for anyone wondering how they can invest successfully in China this book gives quite a few answers to that question.

China is really the place to be in the future. Jim Rogers lays it out so anyone even with below average intelligence can understand the huge opportunities to invest there. Beside all the information about where China has come from and where they are headed that has been packed in this book is a number of lists of companies with their stock symbols and what markets they are traded in along with their three year trends of profit percentages and changes in revenue. Just the homework of that alone is well worth the price of the book if not much more!

This book explains so much on investing in Chinese companies that anyone should be able to find some good investment opportunities with the stocks listed. Jim Rogers is one of the greatest investors of the last 40 years and it seems like a good idea to me to just ride his coat tail so to speak. He puts his money where his mouth is unlike a lot of others who give advice.

A Bull In China gives a good overview of the following markets: Energy, Transportation, Tourism, Agriculture, Health, Education, Housing, Currency and more. As mentioned in the book about the reality that since 1985 the USA has become the largest debtor nation in the world and China has become the largest creditor nation in that same time span says a lot about this countries future and the future of China. This book will certainly help you find a place to put some money. I don't think anyone will be disappointed.

Systematic approach to China

Rogers has an ability to assimilate a vast amount of detailed information and reproduce it in a simplistic, systematic format. The book starts by giving a history of the Chinese stockmarket - only a couple of pages, of course. He then tackles each sector by providing a brief synopsis followed by names of prominant corporations in that sector. The sectors include defense, water, retail, technology, energy, transport, tourism, agriculture, health and health insurance, education and real estate. The book was entertaining, educational and profitable ( hopefully).

The Bull sees Red in China!!

I have read all of Jim Rogers books and this one was as much a pleasure to read as all others. Jim's easy to read writing as well as his desire to educate make this book, (especially if you are truly interested in the topic) a terrific read.

Since reading his previous book, "Hot Commodities" and knowing that he had moved his family to Asia, I was eager to hear his thoughts on the Chinese economy. It is because of Jim that I have encouraged my children to teach their children the Mandarin language. It was also great to see that there is now a vehicle to invest in a commodities index that Jim created. (The stock is RJA and is traded on the American Stock Exchange) I personally look forward to future writings by this unique individual.

If the twentieth century was the American century, then the twenty-first century belongs to China. Now the one and only Jim Rogers shows how any investor can get in on the ground floor of ?the greatest economic boom since England?s Industrial Revolution.?

In this indispensable new book, one of the world?s most successful investors, Jim Rogers, brings his unerring investment acumen to bear on this huge and unruly land now being opened to the world and exploding in potential.

Rogers didn?t just wake up a Sinophile yesterday. He?s been tracking the Chinese economy since he first went to China in 1984 in preparation for his round-the-world motorcycle trip and then again, later, when he saw Shanghai?s newly reopened stock exchange (which looked like an OTB office). In the decades that followed?especially in recent years, with the easing of Communist party financial dictates?the facts speak for themselves:

? The Chinese economy?s growth rate has averaged 9 percent since the start of the 1980s.
? China?s savings rate is over 35 percent (in America, it?s 2 percent).
? 40 percent of China?s output goes to exports (so there?s no crippling foreign debt).
? $60 billion a year in direct foreign investment, combined with a trade surplus, has brought Beijing?s foreign currency reserves to over $1 trillion.
? China?s fixed assets?ports, bridges, and roads?double every two and a half years.

In short, if projections hold, China will surpass the United States as the world?s largest economy in as little as twenty years. But the time to act is now. In A Bull in China, you?ll learn what industries offer the newest and best opportunities, from power, energy, and agriculture to tourism, water, and infrastructure. In his trademark down-to-earth style, Rogers demystifies the state policies that are driving earnings and innovation, takes the intimidation factor out of the A-shares, B-shares, and ADRs of Chinese offerings, and encourages any reader to trust his or her own expertise (if you?re a car mechanic, check out their auto industry).

A Bull in China also features fascinating profiles of ?Red Chip? companies, such as Yantu Changyu, China?s largest winemaker, which sells a ?Healthy Liquor? line mixed with herbal medicines. Plus, if you want to export something to China yourself?or even buy land there?Rogers tells you the steps you need to take.

No other book?and no other author?can better help you benefit from the new Chinese revolution. Jim Rogers shows you how to make the ?amazing energy, potential, and entrepreneurial spirit of a billion people? work for you.
