Best China Stocks To Own Right Now

After the big tsunami and earthquake hit Japan, many wondered if Toyota (NYSE: TM  ) would return to its dominant position in the auto world. In this video, Blake Bos reviews recent developments. On the plus side, Toyota's redesigned Camry is selling well and contributing to improved margins. Consumer Reports rates Toyota No. 1 in quality, and the stock is up 32% through third quarter 2012. On the other hand, the huge Chinese auto market faces headwinds as Japan and China squabble over islands in the South China Sea. The company is not cheap at the moment. However, while Toyota may not be a value investment, it also enjoys limited downside potential and could prove profitable over the long haul.

Toyota has rebounded nicely from the troubles of recent years, but is the stock still a buy at current prices?

Advisors' Opinion:
  • [By Robert Hsu]

    51Job, Inc. (JOBS) reported its financial results for the second quarter of 2011 on August 4. Some highlights:

    Total revenues came in at 332.4 million yuan, an increase of 26.7% from 262.4 million yuan year-on-year. Revenues from online recruitment services climbed a whopping 49%, while print advertising revenues declined 27.8%. Gross profit for the second quarter increased 34.1%, while gross margin expanded to 71.8%, compared with 68% year-on-year. Net income for the second quarter increased 53.6% to 83.5 million yuan, representing earnings per share of 2.82 yuan.

    Looking forward, the company expects for revenue to come in at a range of 335 million yuan to 345 million yuan. Overall, the company continues to make progress on its strategic initiatives, and has strongly increased spending per employer in its online business, as well as expanding its customer base in existing and new geographic regions.

    Shares sold off slightly after the earnings report, since EPS just slightly missed analyst expectations, but investors quickly realized that the long-term growth story was still intact and shares quickly climbed back. Going forward, one day of volatility will not affect fundamentals of this company and I remain bullish on JOBS. Buy it.
