The guest on this week's nationally syndicated Motley Fool Money radio show is Daniel Gross, author of the new book Bigger, Stronger, Faster: The Myth of American Decline and the Rise of a New Economy. In this audio segment, he shares why companies like Apple and Nike are going to see the cost of business rising in China.

Despite the potential for rising costs, Apple's been able to expand into and eventually dominate emerging markets. The Motley Fool highlights several other companies that are doing just that in a brand-new free report, "3 American Companies Set to Dominate the World."
