控股 means "holding stock". I don't think it means "holding company" except in abbreviations of company names.

  Comments:
This is not a Japanese word, but it occurs often in Japanese newspaper articles, WWW pages, etc. when referring to the names of Chinese companies, and I think it's appropriate that we record it rather than leave users of the dictionary fishing for it.
As for the Japanese reading, Unidic has it as くうこ, but a couple of Japanese sites say こうこ, which I think is more likely.
