“I thought about this all weekend. Whatever money you may need for the next five years, please take it out of the stock market right now, this week. I do not believe that you should risk those assets in the stock market right now.”



“I don’t care where stocks have been, I care where they’re going, and I don’t want people to get hurt in the market. I’m worried about unemployment, I’m worried about purchases that you may need. I can’t have you at risk in the stock market.”



But what if you can wait longer than 5 years… ?



“I think what you have to do, if you can withstand it, is just ride it out,”



“I think the previous quarter, the one we’re now hearing from, was a terrible quarter – but it will look good versus the coming quarter.”

Some replies on Yahoo Answers
“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.

Here are a couple of Chinese stocks traded as ADRs: CHL and ACH

Here are a couple of closed end mutual funds currently selling at whopping discounts to net assets: CHN, TDF.
