InvestorIdeas.com Launches New Investor and Industry Portal CoalSectorStocks.com Following Coal Stocks and Growth in the Coal Industry

POINT ROBERTS, WA (PRWEB) February 25, 2006

http://www.CoalSectorStocks.com, a global investor and industry news portal for coal sector stocks, (a portal within the http://www.InvestorIdeas.com umbrella of investor portals) is pleased to offer interested investors a new resource tool for researching the sector. During the past twenty years, the coal market has developed rapidly and according to data from the US National Mining Association, coal production is anticipated to reach 1.16 billion tons, 3.2 percent higher than 2005. The demand and growth due to rising energy prices has created new interest in coal stocks and investing in the sector.    

China is a major factor in the global coal market with the majority of China’s energy production still generated from coal. China is currently the world’s leading coal producing country, producing 2.11 billion tons of coal in 2005. In addition to energy generation, certain types of coal are also essential to the production of steel – this application is also a significant factor in the expansion of China’s coal market. Puda Coal, Inc. (OYCBB: PUDC), a Chinese coking coal producer and Yanzhou Coal Mining Company Limited (NYSE:YZC), provide insight into the critical driving forces behind this particular sector (Also visit our China-Asia portal http://www.China-AsiaStocks.com for recent articles on the coal and steel industries).

As China continues to expand its infrastructure, demand for coal is on the rise globally and within China. Chinese coking coal producer Puda Coal is benefiting from domestic construction’s need for steel, which has increased 25% in the first seven months of 2005. “Driving the demand for coking coal is the mass construction of infrastructure projects that require the use of large amounts of steel, and coking coal is essential in making coke, which is largely used in the steel making process,” explains Puda Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Zhao Ming. “We are now very well positioned to capture the intense demand for the high grade coking coal helping fuel China’s industrial revolution.”

Yanzhou Coal Mining Company Limited also shows great confidence in the coal market. According to a company representative, ”China’s coal consumption will continue to grow. A major driving factor is China’s high economic growth, which drives the demand for coal. In 2006, it is expected that coal consumption in China will reach 2.17billion short tons, an increase of 0.13 billion short tons from 2005.”

China-AsiaStocks.com Announces New Featured Company Puda Coal, Inc, Producer of Clean Coking Coal for the Steel Making Industry

Point Roberts, WA (PRWEB) December 9, 2005

http://www.China-AsiaStocks.com (CAS), an investor and industry news portal for the China-Asia sector announces Puda Coal, Inc. (OTCBB: PUDC), a producer of clean coking coal used in the production of steel, as a new featured company. Puda Coal, specializing in cleaning and marketing China’s top grade coking coal, has become China’s leading supplier for the steel making industry.

Puda Coal operates in the Shanxi Province, a region that accounts for 20%-25% of China’s coal output and 50% of China’s coke production. According to the Company, Puda is establishing their competitive advantage through their key affiliations and strategic positioning. Puda has access to high quality raw coal through its connection with Jucai Coal (controls 60% of Liulin County’s highest grade coking coal deposits), and have built significant relationships with major coke and steel making customers. In addition, the Company is strategically and geographically positioned in Shanxi’s Liulin County, near a group of independent coke providers that supply 50% of China’s coke and 80% of China’s exported coke, with the extra benefit of having nearby rail line access.

“We have followed a strategy of securing the highest quality raw materials while making inroads with the most influential of industry manufacturers” said Puda Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Zhao Ming. “We are now very well positioned to capture the intense demand for the high grade coking coal helping fuel China’s industrial revolution.”

Puda is benefiting from the growing demand for steel production, which has increased 25% in the first seven months of 2005, as steel is a key component in China’s rail systems, bridges, ports, airports, construction projects and car production, helping to drive China’s economic growth. Puda coal is rapidly expanding in order to meet the growing demand for steel, increasing coal cleaning capacity from 500,000 metric tons (MT) to 2.7 million MT by early 2006. Puda Coal continues to be Shanxi’s lowest average cost producer through operating efficiencies, capacity expansion and processing know-how, which is contributing to their ability to secure key contracts with some of China’s largest steel and coking coal manufacturers, according to the Company.

Foreign Institutions to Play Increasingly Active Role in China’s Brokerage Industry

Singapore (PRWEB) October 7, 2005

Many would agree that 2004 was the harshest winter for China’s securities houses. This is not far from the truth. During that year, the industry’s total losses increased to RMB 15 billion (US$ 1.81 billion), and a slew of securities houses collapsed amid persistent stock market weakness and stricter regulations.

The brokerage business has been the only bright side to this doom-and-gloom outlook. Compared with shrinking underwriting jobs and loss-making proprietary trading and asset management businesses, the brokerage sector still managed to achieve modest growth despite the year’s difficult market conditions.

At present, China’s stock market is undergoing profound structural changes. Stock market regulators have made great strides in circulating the country’s huge non-tradable shares, as well as encouraging fund injection from various sources into the bourses. As the stock market advances in the right direction, the brokerage sector is bullish on growth.

To foreigners, the current slump facing local securities houses gives them an opportunity to exploit the vast potential of China’s securities brokerage market. As the Chinese government resorts to influencing market forces in order to advance its financial reform roadmap, foreign institutions are set to play an increasingly active role in the sweeping restructuring of the local securities industry.

The new China Brokerage Market report serves to provide foreign investors with an in-depth understanding of China’s securities brokerage market. More information at http://www.chinaknowledge.com/products_detail.asp?category=4&ID=73.

AmerAsia Report Identifies Opportunities in China’s $ 300+ Billion Healthcare Industry

New York, NY (PRWEB) May 04, 2011

AmerAsia Capital Partners, LLC (“AmerAsia”) (http://www.amerasiagroup.com), a U.S.-Asia focused financial and strategic advisory firm, has released its report on the China Healthcare Industry. The report examines the key factors that are changing China’s healthcare sector in fundamental and unprecedented ways. An in-depth analysis of Chinese healthcare firms from a capital markets perspective and selected profiles of U.S. listed Chinese healthcare companies are included.

Key Highlights

Aligning major growth drivers are expected to sustain and potentially accelerate over this decade the impressive 20+ percent top-line growth of China’s USD 300+ billion healthcare industry.
By 2020, China’s healthcare industry is forecast to be close to becoming the world’s largest as the effect of socioeconomic forces, healthcare reform, industry restructuring and government efforts to foster technological advances converge to yield impressive results.

Due to the decentralized nature of China’s economy and government, every industry in China is very fragmented. As soon as demand for a particular product begins to grow, development oriented government officials in every village, county and municipality across the country encourage the banks and entrepreneurs in their area to set up a new plant.

Why are China’s government officials so motivated to build new plants? New jobs created by new factories are one obvious reason, but not the only one. Also at stake is the 25 percent share of the 17 percent Value Added Tax (VAT) that the local governments are allocated from sales of products made by the factories in their areas. The VAT is the lifeblood of the government infrastructure in China. It pays the bills for the central, provincial and local governments, including the salaries of the government officials. (more…)
