As an investor, you're probably familiar with all of the terms that are used by Wall Street, but have you heard of A-shares and H-shares, sea turtles and Chuppies? Investing in Asia can be tough for people who don't know the economic landscape or the lingo. That's why I've put together a glossary of terms that all Asia investors should know.

The China Daily

The China Daily is the Mainland's primary news outlet to the rest of the world.

The IBD website has many free areas that are updated throughout the day. You can find out how stocks fit into this growth matrix by doing some strategic web-surfing. Go to the company's website and visit its investor relations section. more...
