Today, an educator asked me about some webs where students can research information on China. Here are some things I do for China but they are generic Ideas, you can use them for any country.

This is the official data site of Chinese government statistics organization. Towards the end on that page, you will find market date.

You can also use Slideshare.net and scribd.com for presentations. Usually when people present at events their slides feature data and trends.
