Top 5 China Stocks To Buy Right Now

Yahoo!� (NASDAQ: YHOO  ) stock keeps hitting new 52-week highs, so you may want to pick up a few shares. But you're scared.

While you may think the stock trades cheaply at a P/E of 7.5, there's good reason to believe that Yahoo! stock is expensive. When analyzing the company's business, critics contend that Yahoo!'s all-star CEO, recent string of acquisitions, and its foreign investments conceal a weak domestic business ill-suited for today's world.

But that's not the whole picture. Technology has changed, and Yahoo! has shown it has changed as well.

Looking at its business in a positive light, Yahoo! stock may, in fact, be a good buy today.

Is Yahoo! stock cheap?
Yahoo! stock reports a low P/E of 7.5, yet it may be higher.

Don't forget, Yahoo! owns a 35% stake in Yahoo! Japan and still owns a 20% stake in Alibaba, China's largest e-commerce company. Given that Yahoo! Japan trades for about $28 billion and Alibaba may soon IPO for $63 billion to $120 billion, Yahoo!'s financials may be hiding something�.

  It's certainly no The Walt Disney Company (NYSE:DIS). It's not even a Lions Gate Entertainment Corp. (NYSE:LGF). Yet, Bona Film Group Ltd (NASDAQ:BONA) is a solid company in its own right, and BONA shares are looking more compelling right now than DIS or LGF are here, even though all three companies are in the same industry.

Advisors' Opinion:

• [By Doug Young]

  I've been writing about the VNO development for awhile now, as it's really quite exciting with the potential to instantly triple the number of telecoms service providers in the market from the current three to a new field of 8-9 operators. Equally important, most of those new operators, which would lease network capacity from the existing three telcos, are private sector firms. That means they should be much more nimble and innovative than the current monopoly of three big state-run companies, China Mobile, China Unicom (CHU) and China Telecom (CHA).
