How do I invest in the Chinese Yuan ?
Apparently, if your thinking 10 to 20 years in advance the Chinese Yuan might be a good choice… Pay close attention to Craig Karmin’s response to this question/statement: “How worried should we be about the rise of the Euro, I mean the Dollar look weak agaist the Euro.”

“Just buy a mutual fund or ETF that invests in Chinese stocks. You will get the benefit of effectively holding the Yuan. D” . Response from Heavy D
I know an indirect way. Buy a mutual fund that invests in Chinese stocks or buy Chinese stocks or buy them both. A rise in the Yuan will translate into a rise in the comparative value of the stocks when translated into U S dollars. Actually, the Chinese stocks will most likely outperform the U S stocks during the next 5, 10 and 20 years so you will potentially receive a double benefit.

If I were to go after this, I’d probably go the ETF route. I’m not too interested in the Yuan though. It’s definitely something to consider though.
