Travel business in China - up, up, and away

Recently bought stake in Taiwan online travel service. Great mgmt. Dominates in China.

2/25 in Hotels, Resorts, & Cruise Lines -(72.0 @ A/A+)

this stock has significant earnings growth and once the confirmation is clear on the markets upside this stock has every reason to shoot up. CTRP

Newbie learning by watching. These picks are 2subarus' picks [I chose to test his picks by searching top rated members and filtering by highest accuracy rate - 2subarus appears to be a rockstar. I'm excited to learn not just from 2subarus, but from all of you!

This is the gold standard for online travel in China. The middle class is growing larger as a result of the world buying their goods (Made in China). The next time you see Chinese tourists in your country, think about how they got there. CTRP is at a great price, and the P/E is low.

Simple:

Look at the graph over 10 years. This gem is at 2006 prices.

Is this going to be the one you look at later in your CAPS and say, "I got CAPS points, but should have made real money!"

Leading travel services firm in the world's largest country - and one of the fastest growing. Dominant position in a growing market, so expect long-term growth. High risk associated with immature, opaque, and possibly corrupt marketplace.

The Company is a consolidator of hotel accommodations and air tickets in China.

p/e is dear at 28, but given the demographic factors, this is a clean long term out perform. Nearly 50% hair cut gives me room to grow.

Just look @ the fundamentals of this company - they make $ and are very strong financially with very little costs. Plus, the country of China's growing middle class will be a major driver for CTRP going forward. This is a no-brainer - buying CTRP will produce great long-term returns!

A good buy if you're looking to add Emerging Markets to your folio. Not at it's lowest at the moment but still a bargain.

there's a bull market coming

hotel operations in china-this global beast will be riding high in 3/5 years at this price-think long term fools & buy & hold now & as price is righr-give 3/5 years here. fool on

at resistance, amazing this company got so cheap

One of the many significant changes that is taking place in China is the dramatic increase in the number of people who have some disposable income. Facts have shown that these people want to travel, and CTRP has benefited from this.

Obviously the advent of the Olympics will have played a major role in increasing tourism. But the nearer the date got, local tourism fell off a bit due to projections of astounding crowds (which were then realized).

Post Olympics I expect the tourism/travel interest to pick up again, tho the global recession will make that return a bit slower than might have been.

China's airline industry is going to explode. They are paying top dollar for any american with aviation knowledge to help. Why not be on board?

Market sentiment is very negative for China right now. CTRP is a market leader, the previously torrid growth of which has slowed somewhat. However, this company has no debt, and a significant lead in a nascent industry--all in what will become the world's leading economy. Management seems open, and generally provides conservative estimates. I believe this company will grow 20%/year for at least the next five years.
