Dear Fellow Investor,

It's hard to believe, but this is the last Inside China Dispatch for 2007! There were many investment trends that we followed and profited from this year, and while some have run their course, others will continue through 2008.

I'd like to talk about one investment theme that some say has an expiration date of August 2008, but will actually benefit Chinese companies and investors like us for years to come: the Beijing Olympics.

An Olympic Year

I've been listening to the news reports and bloggers go on and on about the Beijing Olympics and how the completion of the games will bring death to the Chinese economy. It's time to put that argument under a microscope and see what's really in store for China's economy post-Olympics.

I think the best way to see what China may look like after the games is to investigate how other countries have fared after they've hosted the Olympics. This fall I visited Greece and was able to tour the capital city of Athens. I was excited to see the city because I've been fascinated by Greek mythology ever since I was a child, but in addition to the ancient sites, I visited the large stadiums and facilities that were built especially for the 2004 Summer Olympic Games.

The Athens Olympics attracted only half as many visitors as the Greek government expected. Although the event was labeled by many as a money-loser, it had a positive effect on the country's economy. Since the Olympics, Greece has been the fastest-growing economy in the developed portion of the European Union (EU), with annual GDP growth close to 5%—its highest growth level in recent history.

Special Olympic Coverage

I'm currently working on the next issue of China Strategy. In it, I'll be taking an even closer look at the Olympics and how the games will impact China's economy. This is an important event for China and for investors in the China Miracle. I'll be covering the events carefully and I'll let my China Strategy members know if they should reallocate their portfolios to take advantage of any strengths or avoid any pitfalls created by the Beijing Games.

The 2004 Olympics reminded the rest of the world that Greece is thriving in the increasingly global economy of the 21st century. The billions of dollars in free publicity more than made up for what Greece lost from poor ticket sales and empty hotel rooms.
I expect a similar result from next year's Beijing Olympics. Regardless of how many visitors show up to the 2008 Games, people around the world will see the incredible transformation taking place in China today. The event should be a great PR coup for China—and one that they will take full advantage of.

The True Growth Drivers

Also, let's not forget that China's economy has been growing at about 10% for two decades! This amazing growth has little to do with the Olympics. The truth is that in China there is more innovation, technology, labor, financial capital and time (from people living longer) than ever before. I expect these trends to continue regardless of how successful the Beijing Games are. China's booming economy is too hot to slow down after the Olympics have ended. There are many catalysts driving China's growth and few of them depend on next summer's games.

Here's a sign of just how far China has come in recent years: Over the past two months, Chinese investors have injected a significant amount of liquidity into the U.S. market by purchasing stakes in troubled Wall Street firms. Citic Securities, China's largest stock brokerage firm, made a $1 billion investment in Bear Stearns back in October, and China Investment Company bought a $5 billion stake in Morgan Stanley just last week.

Just a few years ago, it would have been unimaginable for China to bail out two of Wall Street's most established investment banks. But things are changing, and the Chinese government is now one of the wealthiest in the world. As the Chinese economy continues to move from strength to strength, next year will likely be another great year for well-run Chinese companies like the ones in our China Strategy portfolio. Even after 20 years of incredible economic growth, there is still a lot of room for China's economy to grow outside of the Olympics in industries like health care, education, insurance and agriculture.
