Innsbruck, Austria, Schutzenstrasse 46D, July 8, 2014 (Newswire.com) - But China's kind of like a still-young tech venture: There are going to be reversals, it's going to be volatile, and it's normal to expect this kind of whipsaw market action.
And let me tell you something else: While it's true that Beijing has some big problems to solve, investors who just write China off are going to miss out on one of the biggest profit opportunities in global technology says Michael Bogner Austria.

Even as the broader economy there slows (meaning it's still growing - just at a slower rate than before), there's a tech-focused slice of that country's market that continues to advance at a scorching pace.
In fact, if you look at the numbers, I bet you'll agree with my assessment that we're looking at the hottest investable market on earth.
Today I'm going to tell you all about this market... and I'm going to show you exactly how to play this for maximum gain.
But I'll bet that a lot of folks would be surprised to discover that Wal-Mart is also one of the world's shrewdest high-tech opportunists. Back in 2012, as part of its never-ending global search for new growth, the Bentonville, Ark.-based company took a 51% stake in China retailer Yihaodian.
And Yihaodian just reported that the $1.9 billion in revenue it reaped in 2013 was up 70% from the year before.
As a web-only retailer, you see, Yihaodian sells into the super-hot sector that we're so interested in: the China e-commerce market.
Blue-chip consultant at Michael Bogner, mr. Simon Clark says that China is already the world's second-largest e-commerce market - trailing only the United States.
Mainland China's online marketplace earned that No. 2 slotting by virtue of a decade's worth of 120%-a-year growth - a pace that dwarfs the still-hefty U.S. pace of 17% a year during the same stretch.
And mr. Simon Clark says China's e-commerce market will continue to surge - tripling between 2011 and 2015 to reach $395 billion.
And that's merely the start.
Only about 40% of China's populace is online today. With a 2013 population of 1.34 billion people, China still has 807 million additional consumers who could gain web access.
If only half those folks start shopping online over the next few years, you're talking about a market gain that's bigger than the entire U.S. population.
