Is China cheap or expensive?

The China indexes are up considerably year to date.

But they are down 54% from October 2007, and earnings/revenues have grown since then and continue
to grow at 8 to 10 percent a year going forward.

Depends on your time horizon.

Compared to US and Europe, China seems a good long term bet.

valuation wise china is much lower than at height of the last bubble.
 
My opinion is that China related corporations are growing like bull mastiff pups. As long as I keep finding companies with 50-100%+ annual revenue growth, year over year, I'm a buyer until the plateaus begin.
What's funny is how CNBC seems to be trying to knock em down a bit... maybe because some big buyers want in a bit lower? The rumor they've been pushing for the past couple days is that the accounting standards may be controlled and slippery. But then I think about investors like Jim Rogers who has been pushing China for well over a decade now.

...basically, the heck with cnbc politics
