The Stocks Best Positioned For the Rise of Asia

The following video is part of our "Motley Fool Conversations" series, in which Austin Smith, consumer goods editor and analyst, along with Andrew Tonner, technology and media editor and analyst, discuss topics across the investing world.

In today's edition, Austin and Andrew give their picks for the top stocks to capitalize on the China boom. With the Chinese middle class set to explode in the coming decades, these consumers will have a heightened appetite for consumption, including Westernized foods and products (which are regarded as higher quality).

This is just one of the interesting trends going on in the industry. To learn about larger implications, I invite you to take a look at The Motley Fool's special free report: "The Death of Wal-Mart: The Real Cash Kings Changing the Face of Retail." In it you'll see which retailers are able to consistently outperform, and how two cash kings are planning to ride the waves of retail's changing tide. You can access it by CLICKING HERE.

What was it that made Jobs so irate — and why could it make a few in-the-know investors some major profits over the coming months and years?

Enter your email address below to find out what made Jobs so enraged!
