Totally broke, exhausted and frustrated... she climbed to the fourth floor of her dormitory and jumped. Unknown to anyone, the 17-year-old changed the world economy forever when she took that desperate leap. Ms. Yu didn’t die, like she had hoped. But 18-year-old Ma Diangqian did. And so did 16 other Chinese citizens who’ve taken these drastic leaps. In communist China, suicide is considered a crime against the state. It’s the ultimate form of protest. And Tian, Ma and those 16 other Chinese have made the ultimate sacrifice to protest the low wages and sweatshop-like working conditions. Together, they’ve incited a small, but growing revolution — one that has already begun to play its part in shifting the investing landscape, not only in China, but right here in America, too. If you understand the shift that is under way, you’ll be one of the first to take advantage of the most-important investing trend since the Industrial Revolution. Here’s what I mean... Slowly, but surely, these protests are working. Chinese wages are now on the rise. Just take a look at this chart from the Bureau of Labor Statistics: Wage Gap As you see, here in America, we’ve seen slow growth in wages. But Chinese wages are increasing at a much faster clip. Back in 2005, for example, U.S. manufacturing wages were 22 times those of China. Today, that gap has shrunk to under 10 times. If China wage growth continues at this rate, the U.S./China wage gap will be under five times by 2015. But wages are just the start of this story. Here’s what I mean... The Comeback No One Will Believe It’s no secret that American companies have outsourced production to China for decades. But with Chinese wages increasing, it doesn’t make as much sense to send those jobs overseas now. Add in high oil prices and the increased cost of transporting goods from China and you could get the great comeback no one is expecting... The great revival of American manufacturing. The world, dear reader, is turning. For you, this turn could change everything about where you should park your money in the coming years... Certain entrepreneurs, for example, could gain business from this shift back to American production. Other companies will suffer badly as their source of overseas cheap labor vanishes. Play this global shift correctly and you stand to grow wealthy. Get it wrong, however, and you’ll sacrifice a fortune. And know this... The great revival in American manufacturing has already begun to take off, although most people haven’t noticed yet. Caterpillar, for example, has built a new plant in Georgia where it will manufacture excavators and small tractors. Intel is investing $8 billion in building and upgrading plants in Hillsboro, Ore....likely the largest capital project in state history. It’s the first new Intel plant built since 2007...and they chose to build it here in the U.S. The Chicago Tribune reported in 2011, “Nearly written off after decades of stagnation, job losses and overseas outsourcing, the ‘Made in the USA’ label is poised for a comeback. “A retooled domestic workforce, paired with rising wages abroad, could lead to a renaissance in U.S. manufacturing within five years.” The trick to profiting from this shift is to not only study the trend on paper, but to put in the legwork and travel required to research the Chinese culture driving this revolution... and trace the steps back to America. That’s where we can help. And it’s why I’m excited to offer you something we’ve never offered before... Hi, I’m Doug Hill — Publisher of Laissez Faire Books. On April 12, we’re hosting a first in our 40-year history: an online event in which we’ll explore five world-shaking events that are sure to impact your financial future. Tian Yu and her 17 co-workers who’ve incited the revival of the American industry is just one of those trends. Other trends we’ll explore are... - WORLD-SHAKING SHIFTS IN POWER: Since the Industrial Revolution, large gaps have existed — primarily in manufacturing might and military power — between the Western world (America and Europe) and everyone else. But since the late 20th century, these gaps began narrowing and continue to narrow today. This shift could change how investors need to act over the next 30 years - EMERGING MARKETS BECOMING DEVELOPED MARKETS: Emerging markets now account for 50% of global economic activity. Mexico is bigger than Canada. India is bigger than Germany. Turkey is larger than Australia. This trend will end the era of "emerging markets" and put massive pressure on resources for decades as this trend continues - GLOBAL WATER SHORTAGES: We take clean, drinkable water for granted here is the United States. But for many countries, plentiful water is a luxury. China, Sudan, Iraq, Pakistan and Egypt all need to "manufacture" clean water. This opens up a huge market in emerging markets for global water companies...and investors. So how can you ride along on this adventure and get the insight behind all of these trends? And what’s the twist behind it being free? Let me first introduce the man behind this story... Introducing Chris Mayer, the Ex-Banker Turned Renowned Independent Analyst... When we first met Chris Mayer, he was managing a $200 million loan portfolio for a major commercial bank. I can’t say the name of his bank here, but I’m confident that you’ve heard of it. Not wanting to sit behind a desk reviewing loan portfolios, Chris decided to walk away. Now he travels the world in search of the best businesses for his readers. Visiting companies in person. Shaking hands with CEOs. Walking through facilities and agricultural fields to see firsthand if a company is worth his investment...not merely by looking at financial documents. After over 561,132 miles of travel to six different continents...here's how he's done. In 2005, Chris recommended Agrium, a global fertilizer producer that operates in North America and Argentina. It was a big winner for Chris’ readers when he recommended they sell it in 2007 for 232% gains, and it’s gone up more than fourfold since his initial recommendation. Then in 2006, Chris saw a global shortage shaping up in one of the most-valuable resources on Earth... water. While there is plenty of water here in the U.S....China, Sudan, Iraq, Pakistan and Egypt all face shortages of drinkable water. After vetting the companies he visited, Chris steered readers to a basket of global water stocks. He was so sure about the trend he created a completely new model portfolio called the Blue Gold Portfolio. All five recommendations in this portfolio were winners. Chris then turned bullish on a Mexican silver company in 2009 when it was at $12 — Fresnillo. The stock doubled for readers before Chris recommended readers sell it. Of course, the gains on those trends are already booked. So the bigger question is... What Does Chris See Coming Next? In short, we’re on the cusp of major shifts in the global marketplace decades...or generations in the making. Shifts like... EMERGING ECONOMIES: Including the economy in Latin America that is growing 5% per year. Foreign investment there has already grown 400% and exports have tripled (and it’s NOT Brazil). EXPLODING POPULATIONS: The world’s exploding population... and the No. 1 way to feed the skyrocketing demand for food and drinkable water (Hint: This new trend doesn’t have anything to do with Australia...) NEW TRADE PACTS — Trade between the Middle East and China quadrupled in just five years... and it’s set to quadruple again. You’ll learn the single-best way to play it. SAVE THE DATE: April 12, 2012 As you may have guessed by now, this isn’t a conference or trip in the normal sense of the word. Instead, it’s an online adventure that takes place on April 12, 2012, at 3:00 pm. We’re sharing this adventure with you to celebrate Chris Mayer’s new book, World Right Side Up: Investing Across Six Continents. This book is a culmination of eight years of meetings with CEOs and investment analysts all over the planet...in places like Mumbai, Canada, Mongolia and Brazil, to name just a few. And on April 12, Chris will give you an early peek into the stories and insights in the book. He’ll show you how to take advantage of this mega trend taking place in today’s global markets. To join us on the adventure, all you’ll need is a computer and an Internet connection. We’ll take care of the rest. Simply log on to this online adventure tour on April 12 and you’ll discover... The best possible way to double your money in Asia (and it’s NOT in China) How to profit from Tian Yu’s Chinese wage revolution and America’s new manufacturing role in the World Right Side Up The grain dealer in Canada transforming its business by building value into their crops... giving investors a leg up on their competition An oil driller that enjoys little competition in Turkey and operates in virgin territory. One CEO said developing in Turkey now is like the Texan Permian Basin in 1938 The inflation-beating investment of the rich and famous... and how you can buy into this trend. Celebrities like Bon Jovi, Bruce Springsteen, Julia Roberts and Harrison Ford all own this investment. So do the Walton family, the founder of Amazon.com and Bill Gates. But “finding suitable investment vehicles,” says CNBC, “is not as easy as one might think.” During this free online adventure tour, Chris will share a few very specific ways for you to play this trend. Our goal is to complete the whole trip, from Colombia to Mumbai to China... in 45 minutes or less. Afterward, you could know more about the global investing landscape, including specific companies and tickers, than 99% of your colleagues and friends. By now you may be thinking...

If she jumped and didn't die then what happened to her? Does the author of this article not give a shit? This is enough to make me dump apple even though I love their products. God is always good!
This is how a 50 cent taco becomes a $5 taco. An old lonely slave comes back from the grave There's a much shorter and plainer way to state this interpretation of turd world GDP. "This is what Mexican GDP would be if everybody paid the prices paid by American tourists." An old lonely slave comes back from the grave |
