Champion of the World, have you entered yet? Date: 9/29/09 12:30 PM
I am currently in 5th place picking mostly Chinese growth stocks on Caps contest: Champion of the World.
If we were allowed to close picks and add more than 100 picks I could have easily gained another 50% on my current 1,912 point gain in the contest.
I could have added LIWA, CPBY, and others which I missed originally.
Most of the gains were because of how amazingly cheap some Chinese stocks got during the 2008-2009 crash. Stocks like JST, HRBN, FUQI, VIT, CFSG, ACH, BIDU, CPBY all crashed over 50% from 2007-2008 highs by early 2009.
CPBY is still one stock that is 50% off its highs of 2007-2008.

Q2 2009 net revenues rose 44% to $19.6 million from net revenues of $13.6 million in Q2 2008. Net income increased to $0.9 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, in Q2 2009 compared to a net loss of $0.1 million, or ($0.01) per diluted share, a year-ago.
Digital projection equipment sales increased to $10.0 million in Q2 2009 compared to $2.6 million a year ago, reflecting global demand for systems used to deliver a 3-D cinema experience. In addition, sales of cinema screens rose to $3.1 million versus $1.1 million in Q2 2008, largely reflecting continued strong demand for specialty “silver” screens used for 3-D digital cinema. A year-over-year increase in cinema service revenues also contributed to the improved sales results. )

Company Overview
The Major Challenge to China’s Water Resources
China’s water infrastructure is under great stress. China faces widedspread water scarcity, frequent floods in the south and east and droughts in the north and west. The country also suffers serious water pollution which heavily strains the environment. China's water supply is smaller than the United States but is home to approximately five times as many people. It is estimated that 300 million Chinese citizens have no daily access to clean water. Over 700 million Chinese citizens drink water that does not meet current World Health Organization standards.
Water usage in China has quintupled since 1949, and almost 90% of underground water in Chinese cities is affected by pollution.
In short, China is struggling to procure clean and provide enough potable water for a growing population. As a result of the high population density, the poor ratio of available water supply to demand, and regional imbalances in available water, China faces serious challenges in managing its usable water supply. These challenges in managing water resoures provide Tri-Tech strong growth opportunites in helping to provide usable water, reduce the effects of drought and alleviate flooding.
Differentiators
Company Strategy
Tri-Tech provides customized solutions and integrated technology to Chinese governmental bodies across China. These include extensive monitoring and management expertise following installation. Future strategies include broadening product offerings by extending product lines to upstream and downstream business segments, strengthening research, building alliances with research institutions, diversifying the client base and seeking early entry into new markets.
Lines of Service
Wastewater and Tail Gas Treatment
Tri-Tech's sewage treatment and water recyling technology includes automation and management systems for large cities. This technology allows a city to electronically control the system to react to chemical and other changes. These systems also allow smaller municipalities to reuse and recycle both grey water and industrial waste water. Other services include patented biofiltration odor control systems, chemical scrubbing odor control and process and monitoring for recycling.
Water Resource Management
Tri-Tech is a leader in drought and flood control through the use of remote terminals that provide multiple levels of data including rainfall measurement and early warnings for small watershed flood hazards. Groundwater is monitored for water quality using remote terminals systems. For water resource use and management, Tri-Tech has developed irrigational and agricultural water conservation systems, a national flood control system and water resource monitoring equipment as well as systems for managing municipal water supplies.

The company is also seeking business in the industrial wastewater and process tail gas treatment market in the petrochemical industry. Sales are expected from early flash flood warning system projects in Hubei and Tsinghai provinces. Increased sales also are anticipated in a long-distance water transfer project with dozens of urban water supply tasks for major cities including Beijing, Tianjin and Shijiazhuang where the company is already engaged. The company plans to increase its workforce and is setting up new offices.

Myriad Pharmaceuticals Announces Two Abstracts Selected for Presentation At 2009
ICAAC Annual Meeting
SALT LAKE CITY, Sept. 10, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Myriad Pharmaceuticals Inc.
(Nasdaq:MYRX) today announced that two abstracts have been selected for
presentation at the Interscience Conference on Antimicrobial Agents and
Chemotherapy (ICAAC) Annual Meeting, being held September 12-15, 2009, in San
Francisco, CA.. Presentations will disclose new findings about MPC-4326, a
Myriad Pharmaceuticals' drug candidate being developed as an oral treatment of
human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) infection.
The abstracts can be accessed through the ICAAC website http://www.icaac.org/.
Abstract titles are provided below, however, please note that according to ICAAC
policy, all data are embargoed until the presentation time. Once presented, all
posters and presentations will be available as PDF files on the Myriad
Pharmaceuticals' website (http://www.myriadpharma.com/).
Abstract # H1230 (Monday, Sep. 14, 2009, 10:00 AM - 10:15 AM): Efficacy, Safety
and Pharmacokinetics of MPC-4326 (Bevirimat Dimeglumine) 200mg bid and 300mg bid
Monotherapy Administered for 14 days in Subjects with HIV-1 Infection
Abstract # A1-1309 (Monday, Sep. 14, 2009, 11:15 AM - 1:15 PM): Pharmacokinetics
and Safety of a Novel 100 mg Tablet Formulation of MPC-4326 in Subjects with
HIV-1 Infection
About MPC-4326
MPC-4326 (bevirimat dimeglumine) is MPI's investigational new drug being
developed as an oral treatment of human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1)
infection. MPC-4326 is a potent small-molecule that acts as a viral maturation
inhibitor and is a first-in-class drug candidate with a novel mechanism of
action. New drugs with novel mechanisms of action are needed to combat the
evolution of HIV drug resistance to the currently available therapies.
Importantly, preclinical studies have demonstrated that MPC-4326 exhibits potent
activity against a broad range of HIV strains, including isolates that are
resistant to currently approved HIV therapies. MPC-4326 could therefore
strengthen the portfolio of approved drugs being used in combination to treat
patients with HIV.
Clinical studies in over 675 subjects to date have shown MPC-4326 to be well
tolerated and have demonstrated significant and clinically relevant reductions
in viral load in patients. Approximately 60% of all HIV patients are infected
with strains of HIV that are sensitive to MPC-4326, and these patients can be
readily detected with a simple and proprietary genotyping assay. MPC-4326 has
been granted Fast Track designation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration.
The company expects to initiate a 24-week, controlled, two-arm efficacy study
(Phase 2b) of MPC-4326 in HIV treatment-experienced patients in the second half
of 2009.

When that date passes, I think the government may give the green light to the acquisition.
In addition, both sides continue to want the deal to consummate and Sina has even added Focus Hot Brand Zone to its website, which is an advertising section on the site for Focus Media's outdoor clients. Clearly that would have not occurred if both sides had cooled to the deal or if they believed that the government would strike it down. Plus, no major shareholders have come out against the deal.

Why is it scary? Because that could spell for more bloody down days ahead for 2nd week of Sept. as people sell stocks for the safety of Gold.

The last 2 times failed although this time it may succeed since its started to Rally at the right time. Sept. right when you have Gold buying for Ramadan & Indian Dowery season which begins in Oct.

The selloff is so well orchestrated by the big boys buying airtime on TV to scare everyone weeks ahead of Sept. Why? Its simple the big boys come back from vacation in the 2nd week of Sept. and they want to be able to purchase stocks at a lower valuation. How they do it is easy they remind everyone weeks ahead to sell in Sept with TV airtime by saying "Sept. is a lousy month historically". Thing is this not your every mill of the year Sept.. Its coming off the worst Recession I have ever seen and I was born in 1932. [more]

If stocks fall on worse than expected data then you double down short.
Today massive -160 djia fall is a perfect case when you cover ahead of the next day's data release.
Its also a time when you go long the stocks that are the cream of the crop. In other words stocks you know are great fundamentally but you wanted in lower.
