Without a doubt, the 21st century will be the “Asian Century.” Asia is home to 3.5 billion people, one-third of the world’s population. Asia is now the world's #1 growth story!

Consider the following set of circumstances: a large population in a demographic “sweet spot,” a high savings rate, an increasing bias toward consumption, and the fact that the world needs a new growth engine for the 21st century. These elements portend a rise of the Asian stock markets that will transform the global economy. Many years of pent-up demand (over a half-century in the case of China) and growing urbanization have finally triggered this historic transformation toward domestic consumption.

Investors today who have the insight and wherewithal to invest in companies that benefit from Asia's historic transformation to a “middle class” economy will rake in massive profits in the Asian stock market.

Read on for a brief look at some of my favorite Asian stock market investments in China, India, Russia, and Japan that I cover in much more detail in the report.

Asian Stock Market Pick #1—
Chinese Real Estate Gem

Asian Stock Market Pick #1 is a leveraged play on the Hong Kong property sector. The company sells and rents properties in Hong Kong and China and has the largest Hong Kong property portfolio among listed companies. This gem of the Asian stock market has a well-respected management team with time-tested development expertise and a high quality portfolio.

Asian Stock Market Pick #2—
Chinese Life Insurance Behemoth

Asian Stock Market Pick #2 is China’s largest life insurer in terms of premiums and geographic business reach. It has a policy base of more than 250 million people. This relatively safe Asian stock market investment offers quality in turbulent times. The long-term growth potential is enormous; insurance penetration in China is very low at less than 2 percent!

Asian Stock Market Pick #3—
Bank on India

Asian Stock Market Pick #3 is at the heart of India’s newfound consumer financing area. It is the second-largest private sector bank in India, with a strong position in corporate, treasury and retail banking segments. The company is one of fastest growing banks in Asia and the world. This king of Asian stock market finance is one of the most efficient banks in India, while boasting the lowest cost of operations among its main competitors.

Asian Stock Market Pick #4—
Indian Pharmaceutical Growth Story

Asian Stock Market Pick #4 is a generic-drugs play that’s also building a proprietary pipeline to supplement its core business. The company has established solid market positions in India, Russia, the U.S. and Germany. This powerhouse among Asian stock market pharmaceuticals is capable of generating annual revenue growth above 10 percent, which would translate to earnings growth of around 20 percent per year.

Asian Stock Market Pick #5—
Russia: It’s a Gas

Asian Stock Market Pick #5 is one of the best long-term energy companies an investor can own. It is Russia’s largest company and controls all of the country’s natural gas reserves, not to mention. To date, most of this leading Asian stock market energy play’s gas has been exported via pipeline to Western Europe. But the global expansion of liquefied natural gas (LNG) facilities will make gas an increasingly international commodity. Using LNG, the company’s vast reserves can be exported to faraway markets that would be inaccessible by pipeline, including the Asian consuming giants, China and India.

Asian Stock Market Pick #6—
Ringing Up Russian Profits

Asian Stock Market Pick #6 is the largest cellular operator in Eastern Europe, with 50 million subscribers. The company has licenses in 87 Russian regions, Ukraine, Belarus, Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan, covering a population of more than 233 million people. Industry experts expect that the introduction of third-generation (3G) video and data services in Russia will significantly increase demand for the value-added services that this Asian stock market phone company provides. Minutes of usage (MoU) per user in Russia are quite low when compared with other emerging markets, leaving tremendous room for growth! 

Asian Stock Market Pick #7—
Invest with Japan’s Best

Asian Stock Market Pick #7 is the largest securities and brokerage firm in Japan. Japan remains a promising market for securities operations. Unlike most western countries, Japan is a savings rich country, and older Japanese have tremendous wealth available for investing. Even better, much of this wealth is sitting in savings accounts earning next to no interest income. If the economy shows sustainable signs of recovery and an end to deflation, there’s a good chance at least some of these funds will find their way into stocks at this top-of-the-line Asian stock market brokerage firm.

Asian Stock Market Pick #8—
Japan’s Picture-Perfect Company

Asian Stock Market Pick #8 is a major Japanese consumer electronics company that derives roughly three-quarters of its revenues from outside Japan. Digital cameras, printers and semiconductors are just a few of its major markets. Japan now does more trade with China than with the US, and a good bit of that trade is in electronic components. China and India will be major buyers of Japanese electronics in the future as the consumer sector continues to develop. As one of the most recognized brands in the electronics business, this Asian stock market darling will be a beneficiary of the increasing demand from Asian consumers for electronics.

Remember, this is the Asian Century! Investors must participate in the Asian stock market or else risk losing out on the fastest growth—and largest profits—available anywhere.
