CAPS Rating:
****

The Company through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Harbin Tech Full Electric Co., Ltd, develops, engineers, manufactures and sells a wide array of customized linear motors and other special motors.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other players to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

Small Cap, China industrial play:

- Margin superstar (49.6% gross, 36.25% op, 25.84% net - almost unheard of in industry)
- 60% Rev growth (TTM And MRQ) is 4x industry
- 26% ROE, well above industry in ROA, ROI
- Conservative capitalization

Trading in line on current earnings (i.e. not premium for growth above industry) - more than covers the China discount. Buy it.s (i.e. not premium for growth above industry) - more than covers the China discount. Buy it.

"(from etrade) develops, engineers, manufactures and sells an array of customized linear motors, motor/controller automation systems, automobile specialty micro-motors, and other special motors (end quote)." Right now the automotive industry is in flux. On the one hand you have a lot of trepidation in the US market, but in the exploding asian economies (where they're still building roads!) we may be at the early stages of a renassaince (sp?). There is always risk no matter what. This stock, like most, has been beaten down this year, and now I think is the time to pick it for CAPS.





The numbers. Excellent Gross, Operating and Profit Margins...49.5, 36.2, and 25.8 respectively. Very solid ROE of 26%.





It's running a very efficient business.

In other words, there is a No. 1 stock in CAPS and a worst-ranked stock in CAPS. When you arrive at the top-ranked stock, clicking "Beat this Stock!" will cause the page to refresh.

That is, until there is a new No. 1 stock!
