| PAST TOP PICK | 43.710 | Stan Wong | (A Top Pick April 8/10. Up 1.22%.) Got out 5-6 months ago at a small profit. | 2011-05-12 | |
| Comment | 44.560 | Stan Wong | Xinhua China 25 ETF includes the 25 leading companies in China. Good for a long term but be careful because interest rates may be rising and inflation could e moving up. Longer term this should be fine. | 2011-01-13 | |
| Comment | 41.180 | Paul Thornton | US and Chinese market have been step in step since 2002-2003 but the Chinese market peaked last November and is actually in worse condition now than the North American markets. Doesn't seem to be the leader anymore, otherwise it would be trading better. | 2010-06-25 | |
| DON'T BUY | 38.820 | John Hood | He plays emerging markets through others. This one is too new. The liquidity needs to be there. You have to look at how emerging market ETFs are hedging their currencies. | 2010-06-08 | |
| DON'T BUY | 39.060 | John Hood | Theory that emerging markets are going to lift US economy out of recession is questionable. A number of issues including China having its currency pegged, the cutbacks, cooling off the housing market, etc. Also based in US$’s so would prefer something that was hedged. | 2010-05-05 | |
| DON'T BUY | 40.840 | Don Vialoux | Xinhua China 25 ETF. This is not a great way to play China as it is heavily weighted in Chinese financial services stocks. 3-year chart looks like a falling wedge is about to break out. Chart indicates it is starting to test some key support levels. | 2010-04-30 | |
| TOP PICK | 43.773 | Stan Wong | Xinhua China 25 ETF. Holds 25 of the largest most liquid Chinese companies. In the last 10 years, the Chinese economy has doubled. Looking forward by 2050 China is expected to be the largest economy. | 2010-04-08 | |
| Comment | 43.140 | John DeGoey | Xinhua China 25 ETF. Prefers more diversified ETFs. Specific country is too concentrated. However, the 25 stocks in this one is probably the best way to get broad exposure if you want to focus expressly on China. | 2010-01-04 | |
| WEAK BUY | 42.010 | David Driscoll | 20% of his revenues come from Asia, but they don’t have to be domiciled in China. Make sure it is no more than 5% of your portfolio. China fell 70% last year. | 2009-12-29 | |
| BUY | 43.860 | Mike S. Newton, CIM FCSI | China is going to do well. Mostly made up of stocks. China is much faster larger entity that other Asia countries. | 2009-10-27 | |
| Comment | 38.070 | Ken McCord | (Question was about shorting this.) Wouldn't Short this as he feels China has a lot of opportunity. You ignore the emerging markets at your own peril. | 2009-06-09 | |
| DON'T BUY | 31.980 | Jeff Black | Any fund that is only 25 securities is quite concentrated. May want to look more at an emerging market ETF. Comment applies to IFN-US, FXI-US. Prefers XIU-T | 2009-04-30 | |
| DON'T BUY | 32.937 | Dennis Gartman | China is the best stock market in 2009. But he is not comfortable owning it. | 2009-04-16 | |
| TOP PICK | 28.640 | Vinny Catalano | Tracks the Chinese market. Like this one on a near-term basis based on what China is doing in terms of stimulus. Expect them to step into a much more leadership type of role. | 2009-03-25 | |
| Comment | 26.418 | David Driscoll | 25 of China's largest and liquid companies. The problem is that speculation is rampant in the Chinese market. Also, a lot of these companies’ profits came from investing in the Chinese stock market. You have to think about these risks. Consider spreading it out to include Brazil and India in an ETF, which will give you a little less risk. | 2009-03-20 | |
| TOP PICK | 25.950 | Kevin O'Leary | Even with a global decline in GDP China has a positive GDP. This ETF has large cap Chinese companies. Not a bad time to add a little bit of China to your portfolio. | 2009-01-19 | |
| Comment | 26.590 | Jaime Carrasco | 25 of the largest industrial stocks in China. He prefers investing in the BRIC (Brazil, Russia, India and China) rather than directly in China. Would consider the Claymore BRIC (CBQ-T) for diversification. | 2008-11-28 | |
| DON'T BUY | 19.420 | Brendan Caldwell | 25 of the most liquid stocks in China. Would not be buying China in any big way right now. If there is really a recession in North America, China will not be an economy that is well insulated from it. | 2008-10-27 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 36.150 | Drummond Brodeur | (A Top Pick July 24/07. Down 21%.) This was a way to get into Asia in a diversified way. If you want an ETF into China this is a pretty good entry point if you feel China will grow. | 2008-09-26 | |

| TOP PICK | 45.170 | Drummond Brodeur | When investing in Asia, you need to take a broad-brush approach. This is an exposure to the top 25Chinese companies including 30% banks, 20% telecom 8% oil/gas and 11% insurance. More exposure to Chinese domestic demand as opposed to exports. Looking at this to go sideways over the next 12 months so buy it for the long-term view. | 2008-07-24 | |
| Comment | 146.990 | Som Seif | This is a great iShare if you like China. Be careful as it does trade with premiums from here and there but is a good ETF to look at. | 2008-02-13 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 198.250 | Peter Brieger | (A Top Pick Jan 15/07. Up 84.8%.) Sold his holdings at about $109. Too much volatility for him. Expect there will be a good 20% correction in this and the Indian market. Not a Buy. | 2007-11-06 | |
| HOLD | 125.560 | Som Seif | Great product for long-term exposure to China. He is bullish on China. Good long term play. | 2007-06-18 | |
| BUY | 109.180 | Richard Croft | And ETF on 25 leading companies in China. Also have options on it. Has had a tremendous run. If you believe growth prospects in China are strong, it's a good place to play. | 2007-04-26 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 106.900 | Peter Brieger | (A Top Pick Jan 15/07. Up 1.4%.) Sold his holdings shortly after. Became too volatile after announcements by Chinese government. | 2007-04-04 | |
| SELL | 103.950 | Peter Brieger | Recommended the stock on January 15. Since that time, it became too volatile and he sold his holdings. He would recommend selling if you own. | 2007-02-02 | |
| HOLD | 106.750 | Hap (Robert) Sneddon FCSI | Has been a great investment to hold. China doesn't have a modeled that he is comfortable with. | 2007-01-30 | |
| TOP PICK | 105.400 | Peter Brieger | Gives you exposure to 25 top companies in China. | 2007-01-15 | |
| TOP PICK | 111.450 | Peter Brieger | 25 of china’s leading companies. Feels that China’s growth will continue well into 2008 and this is an easy way to play it. Planning to have at least 5% of his clients’ portfolios based on China. | 2006-12-29 |
