Hot China Stocks To Own Right Now

The official unofficial beginning of earnings season has long been considered the report from Alcoa (NYSE: AA  ) , with the news setting the early tone for the broader market. As the company's market capitalization has fallen, and with it its influence, many have begun to wonder if the aluminum maker's earnings release is still a meaningful event in the larger context. With commodities having skidded for the first half of the year already, this perception is as prevalent as ever.

While the importance of Alcoa's numbers may have been called into question for setting the outlook for the U.S. -- although there is an argument that the aluminum market is a solid indicator for the automotive sector -- the impact of the results as a leading indicator for China may be on the rise. The country represents the largest driver of growth for Alcoa across a number of critical sectors. With the Chinese consumer price index rising more than expected, some have speculated that government stimulus may contract -- strong growth projections from the company suggest that the Chinese economy is on solid footing.
