Top 5 China Stocks To Invest In Right Now

Investors shouldn't worry over the latest round of trade policy retaliation between the U.S. and China, according to Goldman Sachs.

"Trade tensions represent a minimal risk to S&P 500 earnings in aggregate," David Kostin, Goldman's chief U.S. equity strategist, wrote in a note to clients Friday. "Trump Administration has floated the possibility of an additional $100 bn of tariffs [on China]. Our Washington, D.C. economists view this escalation as a negotiating tactic, but it increases the probability of disruptive announcements in coming weeks."

The strategist said imports from China only represent 3 percent of U.S. GDP, while exports to China constitute just 1 percent of the economy. Goldman's chief economist Jan Hatzius said on Monday if the proposed tariffs are implemented, it would impact U.S. inflation and GDP growth by less than 0.1 percentage point.

Top 5 China Stocks To Invest In Right Now: Baidu Inc.(BIDU)

Advisors' Opinion:

• [By Steve Symington, John Bromels, and Keith Noonan]

  So, we asked three top Motley Fool contributors to each discuss a stock that they believe is absurdly cheap right now. Read on to learn what they had to say about JD.com (NASDAQ:JD), Apache Corporation (NYSE:APA), and Baidu (NASDAQ:BIDU).

• [By Billy Duberstein]

  There are three clear leaders riding this wave, all of which have ties to the "big three" of China, or the "BAT": Baidu (NASDAQ:BIDU), Alibaba (NYSE:BABA), and Tencent (NASDAQOTH:TCEHY). For investors interested in riding the Chinese streaming video trend, the following are definitely the stocks to own.

• [By Rick Munarriz]

  One of last week's big winners was iQiyi (NASDAQ:IQ). Shares of China's leading streaming video provider moved 13.47% higher for the week, fueled largely by a general bounce in Chinese growth stocks. iQiyi also benefited from being tapped for a pair of prolific company lists, but it was essentially a big week for China's dot-com darlings to recover after tariffs-related weakness in recent weeks. Even a slight diss within a bullish analyst note on Baidu (NASDAQ:BIDU) couldn't hold the stock back. 

• [By Chris Hill]

  Hill: We'll stick with video for a minute or two longer. Now that iQiyi is public -- you've talked about this before, is this of interest to you? Is this a stock you've already bought, or it's on the watch list? And for those who don't know, iQiyi was essentially spun out of Baidu (NASDAQ:BIDU). So, the Google of China spins out the Netflix of China. And as you said before, it seems like, if nothing else, it's a win for Baidu shareholders, because Baidu still has the ownership stake.
