Thanks for the link, Bessie- good one! I didn't always suspect the Chinese- till the pet food debacle last year. My dog is still reluctant to eat certain dog foods. In fact- he doesn't. We're not talking cheap brands here.... The other day on the news, there was a mention of the Bras at Victorias' Secret- making women itch. Turns out- formeldehyde in the bra and it's made in CHINA. By the time the actual news was aired, it seemed like the tone (facts) had been omitted. But the 'teaser' mentioned both- formeldehyde and China. Scroll down to #2 to watch: www.woio.com/Global/SearchResults.asp?vendor=wss&qu=Victorias+Secret Here's a board with many woman complaining about the Victorias' Secret bras: www.medhelp.org/posts/show/385376Jill

i don't have the url. the article is much longer. china.........china............china............... i know it is long, but interesting.
Dear DailyWealth Reader,
Have you heard of CHI-MERICA?
Tom Dyson introduced this term to DailyWealth several weeks ago... to describe a truly remarkable - and seldom-publicized - phenomenon taking place in the global financial markets.
I encourage you to read our preliminary report on this opportunity (see below).
Sincerely,
Brian Hunt Editor in Chief, DailyWealth
--------------------------------------------
"Unlike anything I've ever seen." ~Barron's interview; money manager Paul Seaver
From now until July 2009, you have the opportunity to double or even triple your retirement savings - no matter what happens to the U.S. economy and the stock market.
Dear Reader,
If you've ever wanted to take advantage of the tremendous growth taking place in China...
Without the big risks that typically go along with it...
You'll probably be interested in learning more about what is arguably the biggest and most potentially profitable investment secret in the world right now.
I'm talking about a phenomenon called "CHIMERICA," where the money being made (and paid to investors like you and me), is unlike anything I've ever seen before:
. 53,508% gains.............................19 months . 1,400% gains..............................10 months . 667% gains.................................5 months . 132-times your money........................2 years . 871% gains made.......................since Aug.'05
You won't find CHIMERICA on a map. At least not yet anyway.
But it could easily turn out to be the most valuable place for regular Americans like you and me to make money over the next decade.
Already, thousands of smart U.S. citizens are cashing in:
. "It's a no-brainer -- this should allow me to retire early," says Bill Condlin, a 44-year old engineer from Dallas. . Kentucky teacher Brad Jeffries says: "It is more than a ten-bagger for me thus far. And, over the next five years, I honestly believe it'll be another ten-bagger." . Montana resident Scott Meuting says: "I'm up over 800%!"
The amazing thing is that this opportunity we call "CHIMERICA" is still completely off the radar, not only here in United States... but also in China... and everywhere else in the investment world too.
The only time we've ever seen the place written about in the mainstream press was a brief mention deep in the pages of Barrons, in an interview with long-time money manager Paul Seaver.
Seaver said the opportunity at hand "is unlike anything I've ever seen."
My colleagues and I have spent the better part of six months investigating "CHIMERICA" firsthand. I can almost guarantee you will not hear about it anywhere else.
But if you're willing to learn a little more, I believe it easily offers you the best chance to make outsized gains of 550% or more over the next 12-18 months, beginning with just a few hundred dollars.
Let me show you what I mean...
Finally, You Get the Upperhand...
What EXACTLY is CHIMERICA... and what does it have to do with you?
The best way to show you is with a recent example...
In the state of Nevada, there's a company called Wonder Auto Technology.
At first glance, you won't find anything too remarkable about Wonder Auto's business...
The company makes money manufacturing intricate auto parts like "starters" and "alternators," used in various types of cars, pick-ups, and SUVs.
The company also makes parts for General Motors, Kia, Hyundai, Mitsubishi, and Benz-Daimler Chrysler, to name a few.
But here's the thing...
If you live in Nevada, and need a new starter or alternator... you can forget taking your car to Wonder Auto to get fixed.
Why?
Because, even though you can buy shares of Wonder Auto on the U.S. stock market... (they've shot up as much as 1,100% since May 2006...)
And even though Wonder Auto is officially registered as a U.S. corporation...
... With an American-sounding name...
The company doesn't have a single building here in the United States.
Come again?
In short, Wonder Auto Technology does all of its work, and makes all of its profits, in China. It's Chinese-founded, and Chinese-based.
Yet, you can only buy shares of Wonder Auto, here in the United States.
So what, exactly, is going on here?
Let me explain...
"A fundamental phenomenon... " ~Harvard Business School
Wonder Auto is an example of a type of investment we call "CHIMERICA" stocks.
Part Chinese... and part American... CHIMERICA stocks are companies that do business in China, with Chinese management, Chinese employees, and Chinese currency. They make products for Chinese consumers.
You don't have to travel to NY to buy shares of Origin Agritech... or any CHIMERICA company for that matter. It's as easy as calling up any regular US broker and telling him or her which shares you want and how many. Yet, these stocks don't trade anywhere in China.
You can only invest in Chimerica stocks here in the United States of America.
Consider a CHIMERICA company called Origin Agritech. (It's China's equivalent of the American food company Monsanto.)
It produces crop seeds like corn, cotton, canola, and rice. You can find Origin's headquarters and base of operations in China. But you can only buy shares of Origin Agritech (ticker symbol: SEED) on a stock exchange in New York.
How's this possible?
Well, today you can find roughly 20 million officially registered businesses in China...
Many of these companies want to "go public"... and have their shares listed on China's stock exchanges.
But here's the thing...
There's a HUGE waiting list for Chinese companies to go public on one of their local exchanges (2-3 years).
But a good Chinese business can go public here, in America, in just 3-6 months.
That's why, for instance, a company called China Security & Surveillance Technology (CSCT) chose the U.S. stock market over China's.
These guys provide security and surveillance technology for the Chinese Government.
Rather than wait years to go public on China's stock exchange, this small company listed in America first...
And we're glad they did.
Last July, when the Chinese government passed a law mandating this company's surveillance at every nightclub, every Internet cafe and every bar in China... shares began to skyrocket.
If you'd invested in China Security & Surveillance Technology within the past two years... then you're probably sitting on a fortune today.
» Since July '05, shares have risen as high 64,900%. That's more than 600-times your money, in little over two years.
How does it all work? It's a pretty simple process most investors don't have a clue about...
The Secret Behind "Chimerica"
In short, Chinese companies are able to "list" their shares in America (and become CHIMERICA companies) thanks to what U.S. lawyers call a "reverse merger."
Sounds complicated, I know... but it's really pretty simple.
What's Happening Here?
In short, the U.S. government is helping hundreds of China's fastest-growing businesses raise the capital they need to continue growing.
By granting ambitious Chinese businesses access to America's stock markets - where it's much easier (and MUCH safer) for US investors to pick up shares.
It's as simple as calling up your regular old U.S. broker and buying shares just as you would any other US stock like Microsoft, Home Depot, or WalMart. In essence, to list in America, Chinese companies find an American "shell" company and simply back themselves in.
A shell company is a stock without a business. The business has no assets or operations, but it still has a name and a stock symbol. Take United National Film Corporation. It stopped doing business in 2001 and became an empty shell. In 2007, United National Film Corporation "merged" with a company that makes turbines for Chinese power plants.
Now this company's name is Wuhan General Group and its stock trades in America under the ticker symbol WUHN. Just in the past 12 months, shares of Wuhan General have soared 447%. That's $22,343 in return for every $5,000.
Welcome to Chimerica!
Ordinarily, you and I would never have access to an opportunity like this one.
In the past, Chinese stocks like China Security and Surveillance Technology only traded in China - on the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock exchanges.
But today - thanks to this phenomenon known as "Chimerica" - you can now buy shares of these super fast-growing Chinese companies - right here in the U.S.A.
So far, more than one hundred Chinese businesses have moved their shares and shareholders to the U.S. stock market. And that's just in the past few years - since this phenomenon began.
So, what's so appealing about Chimerica stocks? Why are they better than ordinary U.S. stocks?
And why are they better than ordinary shares of Chinese companies that you can buy in China?
Make Money Even if the U.S. Economy is Falling
Well, one of the things that's so appealing about Chimerica companies is that they are growing by as much as 40% to 80% a year. (That's ten times faster than America's top businesses.)
This gives you the potential to make absolutely incredible gains, in a very short period of time...
»For example, a CHIMERICA company called Jinpan International (JST) has seen its net income soar 66% over the last several months - even as the global economy has slowed down. Why? Because these guys make electricity equipment in China, which the Chinese economy desperately needs - no matter what's happening in the financial markets
Not surprisingly, Jinpan's share price (the stock trades in America) has also SOARED. If you bought shares of Jinpan (JST) in March 2007, you could have seen as much as a 175% return on your investment.
Even better, if you'd bought shares five years ago, you'd have made as much as 21-times your money. That turns a $5,000 stake into $105,000.
"CHIMERICA" Stocks can help you make gains as high as 132,600%
> General Steel... 1,179% returns (2yr) > Pacificnet Inc... 53,508% returns > Comtech Group... 5,240% returns (5 yr) > SORL Auto Parts... 900% return (in 10 mos) > Jinpan International Ltd... 6,528% (since Jan '01) > Origin Agritech... 277% returns (in 20 mos.) > American Lorain Corporation... 667% (5 months) > Fushi Copperweld... 132,600% > China-Biotics, Inc... 1,286% > American Oriental Bioengineering... 1,127% (since May '05) > New Oriental Energy & Chemical... 10,525% (since Oct '05) > Sina Corp... 3,807% return (since Jan '02) > Telestone Technologies... 240% (since Jul '06) > Harbin Electric, Inc... 871% (since Aug '05) > Sinovac... 870% As you can see, these "CHIMERICA" companies are China's high-growth superstars of tomorrow - available to you and me on U.S. exchanges today.
But these stocks businesses have long-term plans too. They're not out to make a quick buck and pack it in. They're literally the future Walmarts, Verizons, and Best Buys of China.
That's why Fortune 500 companies like Microsoft, Intel, GlaxoSmithKline, Panasonic, DaimlerChrysler, and close to 50 other business heavyweights are already doing business deals with "CHIMERICA" companies.
Microsoft, for instance, just formed a business partnership with Comtech Group - a "CHIMERICA" company that's quickly cornering China's lucrative video display market. If you'd invested $5,000 in Comtech's stock in 2002, you could be sitting on as much as $125,000 in profit today.
You probably get the point - CHIMERICA companies have incredible growth potential.
So it's pretty clear why these CHIMERICA companies are better bets right now than ordinary U.S. stocks.
Banned in China, LEGAL in the United States...
Because shares of CHIMERICA stocks are listed right here in the States, the SEC reviews these companies' applications - and approves or denies them.
Why is that a big deal?
Well, to stay in the U.S., they MUST follow U.S. accounting standards - they must play by the same rules as any other America public company like Johnson and Johnson and Exxon. That way, you know you're investing in a credible and legitimate business.
And here's the #1 reason why Chimerica shares are so appealing: While Chinese shares traded in Shanghai are very, very expensive... these CHIMERICA companies (many of which are growing more than 50% a year), are super cheap
Why?
Have you heard of China's Best Buy?
Today, China 3C has 913 stores throughout the country - and plan to increase that number to 4,000 in the next two years - that's roughly 3-times the number of Best Buy stores you'd find in all of North America... Because Chinese locals can't own them. It's very complicated for a Chinese investor to buy here right now. And most Americans have simply not heard of these businesses, because they simply don't do any business here.
Think about it...
Everyone in America has heard of the electronics store, Best Buy. It's probably the #1 electronics super-store in the country.
But I bet not 1 in 1,000 Americans has heard of the Chinese equivalent - a CHIMERICA company called China 3C.
And that's a shame too...
You see, any electronic device or gadget you can find at Best Buy in America... China 3C carries it too...
Cell phones, DVD players, speakers, stereos, speakers, iPods, laptops, digital camcorders and cameras, televisions, you name it.
And while most Americans have never heard of this Chimerica company...
Panasonic, Samsung, and Philips (the biggest names in electronics) certainly have... and use CHINA 3C to distribute their products.
Sales at CHINA 3C doubled this past year... and net profits shot up 112.7%.
The company's growing like crazy...
Even though it's headquartered in HangZhou, China... you can only buy shares here in the United States, where it trades on the American stock market...
In the past 4 years, shares of China 3C have risen as much as 2,003% -- that's a $100,156 return for every $5,000 invested. Just in the past 18 months, shares have risen as much as 545% in value.
So which CHIMERICA investments offer you the best opportunity to make several times your money today? The best opportunities for you to make a fortune from Chimerica are in the works right now...
Simply put, I believe the sooner you get in on these companies, the more money you will make. They are pretty much going straight up...
The Super Easy Way to Pick Up the Best CHIMERICA Stocks Today
With more than 100 different CHIMERICA stocks to choose from...
How do you know which ones to buy?
We've spent nearly six months looking at roughly one hundred CHIMERICA companies. And we've found that there are two Chimerica companies that stand head shoulders above the rest.
If this idea sounds interesting to you... then I recommend you buy shares of these companies immediately. Plan to hold them for at least the next three years. And don't be surprised if they turn out to be the two most profitable stocks you have ever owned...
» CHIMERICA INVESTMENT #1: The "SAFEWAY of China"
Just this past year, the price of eggs, dairy and poultry experienced the highest jump in eighteen years, according to the U.S. Dept of Agriculture. And most economists expect prices will only climb through 2012. Why? Because China has 500 million new middle-class mouths to feed... and not enough food. That's why you can easily make a fortune by investing in a CHIMERICA company we're calling the "SAFEWAY OF CHINA." These guys have 550 food stores throughout China. And, in the past year, grew their bottom line by an amazing 458%! Buy this CHIMERICA stock today on the U.S. stock market and you should double your money pretty quickly.
» CHIMERICA INVESTMENT #2: The "Motorola of China"
Imagine taking home a small percentage of profit every time someone in China buys a cell phone. Very quickly you'd find yourself sitting on a huge stash of investment returns! China has more than 400 million cell phone users (that's more than the entire US population). And expects to add another 250 million by 2012. We've found a CHIMERICA company that controls 69% of a key niche of this fast-growing cell phone market! It's no wonder revenues at this company have grown 40% a year for the past 3 years. You can buy shares from your regular U.S. broker, just as you would any other stock. We suggest you do, right away, and hold on to your shares through 2010.
I've only given you a snapshot of the two CHIMERICA businesses we're recommending.
But as you can probably see, each offers you:
1)large potential returns on your investment 2)access to buying shares on the US stock market 3)and exposure to China's rapidly growing industries
I recommend taking a stake in both these businesses, sooner, rather than later.
Why?
Because no matter how far and fast America's economy might fall...
In the short-term... and in the long run, China's economy will KEEP GROWING.
And, therefore, so will CHIMERICA stocks - especially the two we've highlighted...
Why?
Because their industries are tied directly to China's economic growth.
Here, take a look at the following graph. You should see 4 lines.
Three of these lines are U.S. stock markets from the past year. They all hover pretty much on the same stagnating course.
But the fourth line - the one steadily rising - represents CHIMERICA stocks. And it's drastically different than the rest:
As you can see, CHIMERICA stocks have been crushing regular US stocks.
Why?
Because even though they trade in America, they reflect the growth of the Chinese economy... which has been growing 3-times as fast as our own (and will continue to do so through 2025, according to most experts).
The Chinese Government literally has trillions socked away. So their economy has plenty of room to grow.
Meanwhile, our own U.S. Government owes China and dozens of other lenders MORE than a trillion dollars. So our economy has been floundering, our Dollar has been crashing... and our retirement savings along with it.
If you'd like more information on our 2 favorite CHIMERICA stocks for 2008... then I encourage you to read our full white paper briefing, which we recently published.
You can receive it at no extra charge.
Here's how...
We'll pay for shipping and handling too. Here's how to claim your copy today...
Why We've Visited More than 20 Countries in the Past Year
My name is Brian Hunt.
I'm the Research Director of Stansberry & Associates Investment Research - a private financial research firm, headquartered in Baltimore, Maryland.
At Stansberry & Associates, we routinely seek out unique and profitable investment ideas... opportunities you're not likely to hear about in the mainstream financial media or through big brokerage houses.
Unlike big investment firms, we focus our efforts on lesser-known investment deals. After all, who wants to pay for investment advice you can get in the newspaper?
That's why my colleagues and I have spent the past 6 months tracking down the details of CHIMERICA, as part of our research for my monthly retirement advisory called International Strategist.
We created this research service to give Americans another way to think about retirement.
You see, we believe that if you want to retire comfortably in the U.S., you've got to start looking beyond U.S. borders with your investments.
Why do I say that?
Well... it's simple, once you look at the cold hard facts...
You'd probably agree U.S. stocks, by and large, have done quite well over the past 5 years.
In fact, we've just had one of the three longest bull markets in U.S. history. The stock market as a whole is up 74% during that period.
Not bad.
But did you know that if you had simply looked overseas with just a tiny percentage of your portfolio, you could have made safe gains of 5- 10-times as much.
In 1998, for instance, Greece's stock market rose 93.5% in just 12 months.
You can find similar examples, going as far back as 1980. Every single year, a stock market outside the US crushes the world-wide average.
Not once in 27 years does the U.S. stock market emerge as the global champion. Not once in 20+ years.
And this past year? How did U.S. stocks stack up against the rest of the world?
Well, take a look at the world's top three stocks for 2006-2007:
Where do U.S. stocks fall on this list?
Nowhere.
Not in the top ten. Not even in the top fifty.

Great info, Ruth! Thank you! Another board I was posting on- going back to 2001- has turned into a campaign for the Digital Angels- chips for kids. The focus of the board, initially, was Chandra Levy. Over time, other 'missing women' cases were discussed and researched. Then, the kids- the missing children. All of a sudden, every missing child was the topic of interest. And the inevitable pitch for the chips. This, in my opinion, is using the news to promote an agenda. So now, in addition to chipping children, the board owner pushes chipping anyone that has a criminal background. You know where that is leading. Chip everyone. www.digitalangel.com/ Then, you have to chip the Alzheimers' patients: www.wiolawapress.de/forum/viewtopic.php?id=1023 Did you know, in Mexico, executives have been chipped for years? Here's a health concern- re: chips: www.engadget.com/2004/10/14/fda-approves-verichips-implantable-medical-chips/comments/708055/ Just for your info guys, The company in Florida that is producing the VeriChip, may now be backing out of its production for now. FDA just released that if you get a MRI or need one done you would get badly burned because of the chip. So they are saying if you are thinking about recieving this chip to consider never getting an MRI. I don't know about you, but it sounds like they don't have it all together yet.

re the article: WHY would China want to destroy the 'West' with nanoweaopons? Half their factories would have to shut down - they'd lose their best customers, and their economy thus flushed down the tubes. What am I missing?
The lead, formaldahyde, and melamine aren't nanoweapons in an "unrestricted war", are they? That's like we were before tighter regulation. The article is about an "acopolyse", not cutting corners, dishonesty, and sloppiness. Nanopolyse - new word I just coined.
One of the damning factoids: In China, the magazine “National Defense”[/b] carried on June 15, 1996, the article “Nanotech Weapons in Future Warfare” by Major General Sun Bailin[/i] Defense. There is no more description than the title. My guess: He was writing about what the 'West' could do to China.
ruth, are you going to/did you buy the stock?

As far as USA being their "best customers", with what is happening to our economy, I'd think we'd fall considerably from that status. "Defeating" us would be a piece of cake - weaken our numbers considerably then cash in the IOU's. Better learn Chinese - they own the US. Bessie

Who gave the secrets to the Chinese?
In fact, they may have already known them as well.
Seem to have a lot of nano type alchemical already working.
Payback for Sars, was genetically created, to mmmmmmmm
Notice what countries got Sars?
And who created that?

No some secrets were given to them as well. Oh yes, we sure owe them money, but, That is what I mean.
Remember the Clinton years? More was going on behind the scenes of M Lew.
That was a distraction to fulfill the pass off. All the behind the scenes stuff was talked about by Weldon, but, not many listening to the real traitorous stuff going on.
