10 Top-Yielding China Stocks

The big rally that China stocks experienced this year has tempered, and that's good news for those interested investors who sat on the sidelines, waiting for lower prices.

Many of these stocks have dropped off substantially from their highs, and they may be worth another look. And for those investors who want to mitigate their risk, investing in a stock that pays a dividend helps cushion the risk.
