"A focal point of China's ambitious $586 billion stimulus package will be railroads; in fact, investment in railways has already tripled over this time last year." explains value Investor Nathan Slaughter.

In his Half-Priced Stocks he adds, "Guangshen Railway Limited (NYSE: GSH) looks to be an obvious choice to benefit from this trend. Indeed, pricing flexibility, stellar efficiency and utilization has made Guangshen the most profitable rail company in China."

"Growth in China's railways doesn't come as a surprise. Years before this plan was put in motion, China already had bold ideas about building out its railway system -- and was bankrolling those ideas with about $200 billion in government cash.

"Energy Transfer Equity (NYSE: ETE), a major player in the midstream energy sector, is a cash-producing machine," says value investor Nathan Slaughter.

The editor of Half-Priced Stocks explains, "Even more promising, those who know the company best -- the CEO and one of its co-funders -- have been voting with their wallets lately." here's his review of the income holding.

"The company -- a master limited partnership (MLP) -- owns over 17,000 miles of natural gas pipelines in several states, including the largest network serving the prolific gas basins of Texas.

MLPs come in two classes: general partner and limited partner. The general partner (GP) typically handles all of the day-to-day operations and in return gets a cut of the distributions that are dished out to the limited partners (LP).

"In this case, the General Partner is Energy Transfer Equity, our recommendation, which should not be confused with the Liimted Partner -- Energy Transfer Partners (NYSE: ETP).

"Energy Transfer Equity owns all the General Partner interests -- as well as 62.5 million LP units (46%) of ETP. All of which is a convoluted way of saying that ETE unitholders can expect to be showered with cash.
