10 Best China Stocks To Own Right Now

Sometimes the best way to play a commodity is to find one getting beaten up by Wall Street.

As any seasoned investor knows, Wall Street has a tendency to overreact, and that's happening right now with one of the most important metals on Earth...

At the moment, commodities analysts flat-out hate iron ore.

Forecasters at prominent brokerage houses like Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley have slashed their short and long-term price forecasts. And top Australian economists are projecting prices to slide from an average of $119 per ton this year to just $90 per ton by 2015.

 

Nobody knows the iron ore market better than Australia -- which feeds a million tons of the raw materials to China's hungry steel mills every day. So we need to forget about investing in iron ore for the foreseeable future, right?

    Did you miss today's 123% pop from Clean Diesel Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ:CDTI)? If you didn't chase it higher after the bullish gap left behind at the open, then good for you - you made the right choice. As tempting as CDTI looked then (and still does), the bulk of any near-term gain here has already been realized, and there's no real point in jumping on the bandwagon now. Fear not if you missed the big move from Clean Diesel Technologies though. There's another, smaller name playing the same game, and you won't have to pay a fortune for it just to take a big risk.
