Unbelievable, but (probably) true - China's superlative

It is no secret: the stock market boom of the last two years would not as much without the huge demand pull of China have been possible, just as the rapid recovery of the global economy. Therefore, I can understand it well when I asked frequently in recent times by worried investors would consider whether this boom in China could actually continue for.

Instead of a profound analysis, I now try to clarify the huge China-dimensions with a few superlatives plastic. The apparently more convinced than logical thought. The examples I use come from GaveKal Research, a respected research firm in Hong Kong, which has culled a variety of Chinese data.

Here are my six favorites that have been convinced almost all China-skeptics:

1) So far only four of the 31 disputed provinces about two-thirds of China's foreign trade. Beijing now wants the remaining 27 areas can catch up with huge infrastructure investments - and thus generate a sustained high growth rate.

2) The industrialization to take place mainly around the cities of millions - of which China has fewer than 160 - five times as much as all of Europe. Eight are "megacities" have more than 15 million inhabitants.

3) China will in the next ten years to build and would then have 97 airports 244th Since then an enormous number of new aircraft are needed, opened for manufacturers such as Airbus and Boeing, a lot of potential - just open up the airlines, the new connections.

4) that energy demand in China is large and will continue to grow strongly. Therefore, currently about 500 new coal-fired power plants in the planning and to only 33 nuclear power plants. The demand for coal and uranium will then rise sharply and drive up prices.

5) The industrial revolution required a lot of class workforce: almost six million Chinese now make an annual university degree, 700 000 of them as engineers.

6) The number of households in the four BRIC countries together, the per year, more than $ 10,000 household income available increases exponentially. 2011 will be the first time with 150 million more than in the United States, 2020 with 350 million even more than the U.S. and the EU together. This means good opportunities for all consumer products, from car business to the luxury goods producers. And here in Germany is very well represented.

These superlatives illustrate the potential of China - the long term, both the Chinese shares and the stock markets of major trading partners will benefit.
