Well if you look at the example of a six digit dot com.
10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 = 1,000,000 (One Million possible combinations)
So it looks like anything up to 6 digits in dot com might be worth owning especially if the combination is attractive and maybe has repeating numbers to make it more memorable or some other advantage over the combinations like 8's.
You have to remember that China is a bit late to the Domain Name industry but they have huge capital and, as Frank Schilling put it in the above video, there are more wealthy Chinese people than there are Americans (wealthy or otherwise). You only need a small portion of investors coming in and buying up stock to have a trading market, let alone the end user market. Our company owns a small portfolio and gets regularly spammed with offers from China.
Overall though, if you're really clever about your selections you could do reasonably well as you're only overhead is your renewals so risk reward is pretty favourable. I think 5 (or less) letter or 6 (or less) digit dot coms should do okay in my view but I still prefer words, two words or pronounceable dot coms though.
