内容简介
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.
作者简介
吉姆·罗杰斯是美国著名的投资家，曾与金融大鳄索罗斯共同创立了量子基金。但在1980年两人分道扬镳，因为罗杰斯要“以自己的方式投资“，他的方式就是驾车做投资旅行。他先后做过两次环球投资旅行，第一次旅行之后，他出版了《罗杰斯环球投资旅行》一书，有50万册的销量佳绩。本书是他在与女友（后来在旅途中成了他的妻子）进行第二次环球投资旅行后所写的。
1999年1月到2002年1月，他们开车从冰岛出发，游历了116个国家，包括那些旅行者不太会去冒险旅行的国家和地区，如安哥拉、刚果、苏丹、东帝汶等。这次跨世纪的旅行也可能创下了历时最长的持续汽车旅行的吉尼斯世界记录。当然，吸引我们的并不只是这次旅行所创造的吉尼斯记录，更多的是因为罗杰斯这个不同寻常的旅行者，他不仅仅只是一个旅行者，他更是一个投资者。在旅途中，他凭着自己对社会、政治和经济的独到见解，记录下了自己的所见所闻，纠正了人们头脑中的一些陈见，并对各地的投资前景进行了预测。比如他认为：在安哥拉将有很多创造财富的机会；波利维亚在数十年的动荡之后可能会成为一个后起之秀，因为那里有丰富的天然气资源；欧洲注定是要失败的……在他的旅程中，中国是重要的一站。从书后的旅程表来看，中国是罗杰斯逗留时间最长的一个国家，这不仅是因为古老的中国对于西方人有很强的吸引力，还因为在罗杰斯看来，中国将是一块投资的热土。罗杰斯甚至曾在上海证券交易所开户，购买B股股票，并对中国的B股市场进行了预测。
罗杰斯，一个成功的投资者，以其丰富的亲身经历，为读者展现了巨大的投资前景。罗杰斯是一个探索者，在所到之处，他总能发现当地的投资价值。就像西方的书评界所说，跟随罗杰斯就能发现未来投资的金矿。跟着罗杰斯周游世界，跟着罗杰斯投资全球，本书带给读者的就是罗杰斯新千年的投资之旅。
