Chinas Demand for Commodities Grows

Tony Sagami examines the major commodities that China needs in order to continue growing. Mr. Sagami discusses each commodity and why China needs it.

Mr. Sagami takes a closer look at the high demand for certain commodities in China and advises on what he believes investors should take a closer look at.

China will need to consume an unprecedented amount of natural resources to fuel its economy and feed its 1.4 billion people. The Chinese have a large appetite for commodities.

China needs energy, and frenzied buying activity can be expected to lock up reliable supplies of multiple sources of energy. Oil, natural gas, coal, and uranium are likely to be high in demand.

After fuel, China needs the basic minerals and metals needed to build roads, bridges, skyscrapers, dams, ports, and power plants. That means that China will need all the aluminum, copper, iron, potash, bauxite, zinc, tin, and cement available.

Food is also in great demand in China. Rice shortages have been all over the news recently. While rice is a crucial staple of the Chinese diet, they also need pork, wheat, soybeans, poultry, edible oils, dairy, and seafood.

"The last commodity China needs is water. One-third of China's rural population, an estimated 360 million people, does not have access to safe drinking water because more than 70% of China's rivers and lakes are polluted," Sagami states.
