China Crescent Enterprises, Inc. (CCTR.OB) Reports $17 Million in Revenue and a Record Net Income of $1.1 Million for the First Six Months of 2009

QualityStocks (September 25th, 2009) Writes:

China Crescent Enterprises, Inc., a technology leader in the rapidly developing Chinese market, recently announced that the company generated $17 million in revenue and a record net income of $1.1 million for the first six months of 2009. The company is on track to reach its forecasted $50 million in profitable revenue for 2009 due to the $45 million in recently announced outsourcing or pending contracts.

China Crescent Enterprises focuses on serving second-tier cities, small-to-medium enterprises and rural markets in China. In February 2009, the Chinese government launched a subsidy program to fuel PC sales in rural China and selected 14 vendors as dedicated suppliers for its subsidy program, including Lenovo and Dell, both of which are value-added resellers for China Crescent Enterprises.

Despite the current slowdown in PC sales worldwide, a recovery is expected in 2010 fueled by virtually untapped markets, such as rural China. China Crescent’s sales have been

How to Turn Ordinary Profits into ‘Xcelerated’ Profits

Contrarian Profits (September 15th, 2009) Writes:

Most of the time, we’re no fans of Wall Street analysts. They’re often behind-the curve, biased, and flat out wrong.

But sometimes, we make exceptions – especially when their over-zealous attitude causes a stock to blast higher and hand us triple-digit gains.

I remember one such occurrence in particular with a high-tech company that we own in our Xclerated Profits Report portfolio. Thanks to some giddy CNBC analysts pumping up the price, the stock surged from $6 to $20 and we took half our position off the table for a gain of more than 100%.

The small-cap stock has suffered along with the broader market, but there’s no doubt that its business is viable. It’s leading the way in the field of touch screen and force-feedback technology – otherwise known as “haptics.” In short, this simplifies and enhances human interaction with technology in a variety of ways.

QualityStocks (September 3rd, 2009) Writes:

The Dragon Capital Group Corporation is a leading holding company of emerging high-tech companies in China. While business has been improving at Dragon, the young company may be on the verge of even more success due to its subsidiary, Shanghai Yastand Information Technology Company.

The UpTurn, Inc. (UPTR.PK) Leverages High Powered Talent to Break New Ground

QualityStocks (May 15th, 2009) Writes:

The UpTurn, Inc. is probably not a company you’ve heard of as frequently as Twitter, and that’s a good thing. It just recently became a publicly traded stock, and is already being compared to MySpace, Facebook, and other highly successful social networking sites.

The company’s founder, Jeff Eckman, a graduate of MIT’s Sloane Business School, is looking to put together what could also be described as the next eBay. TheUpturn.com will bring together a huge number of buyers, sellers, and everyone in between. It will represent a sophisticated amalgam of social networking and marketplace technology, all dedicated to the biggest single market in the country, real estate.

UpTurn, which has yet to go live although elements are being tested in a private beta release, is being designed to match buyers with sellers, and renters with landlords, in addition to providing a host of

What to Buy…or Not Buy

Contrarian Profits (May 5th, 2009) Writes:

From the tidal wave of e-mails and comments I have received from numerous different sources I am under the impression that most investors view the recent rally in the world’s stock markets as a bear market rally. I suppose we would need to define a bear market rally as a rally that fails to make a new all-time high (for the S&P 500, above the 1576 reached in October 2007) and is also followed by a new low for this cycle (below 666 for the S&P 500 reached in early March 2009).

The problem I have with this dogmatic definition of a bear market rally is the following: Assuming (and this isn’t a forecast, since I really haven’t the foggiest idea where stock markets will be in six or 12 months’ time) the S&P 500 moved up to 1350 and then declined to 500, as an investor should you care

Investment Performance Evaluation Re-Evaluated: Part Two

Steve Selengut (April 23rd, 2009) Writes:

The Working Capital Model (WCM) looks at investment performance differently, less emotionally, and without a whole lot of concern for short-term market value movements. Market value performance evaluation techniques are only used to analyze peak-to-peak market cycle movements over significant time periods.

Security market values are used for buy and sell decision-making. Working capital figures are used for asset allocation and diversification calculations. Portfolio working capital growth numbers are used to evaluate goal directed management decisions over shorter periods of time.

WCM tracking techniques help investors focus on long term growth producers like capital gains, dividends, and interest— the things that can keep the working capital line (see Part One) moving ever upward. The base income and cumulative realized capital gains lines are the most important WCM growth engines.
