They are fairly shielded from copper commodity prices, as their input and output costs are both linked to the commodity price (recycler). The highly profitable company has consistently grown the top and bottom line for 4 years and is trading for cash. As reluctant as I am to buy overseas companies, this one is too cheap to pass up and has a fantastic risk/reward profile. The independent audit and board members make this a winner in my book. Buy it, forget about it and wait for the market to realize $0.50 dollars are out there.

Charts look like a bottom forming, and valuations are way below industry averages.

Beaten down by short attacks so much that it's barely trading above the amount of independently verified cash they have.

Yes! We need alternatives to pure copper wire for motor systems and other magnetic systems. What a great way to make motors and other inductive systems less costly!

This is a tracking portfolio of all CAPS-ratable tickers in the Chinese RTO/SPAC space (i.e., companies that listed without filing an IPO).
Lihua International, Inc. went public via a reverse merger with a Form 10 shell in 2008. The company is based in China.

LIWA is oversold with a forward P/E of 7 and strong growth expected moving forward. Just expanded into increasing capacity for copper wire production. Has actually begun buying back shares of the 15 million they intend to buy back this year. Has been dropping on very low volume and is likely a bounce play short term and longer term with a $20.00 price target a super buy at $8.50.

Lihua Int'l (LIWA) is an undervalued China play, a bimetallic and copper wire maker in the world's fastest growing market for bimetallic and copper wire. UltraLong has laid out in more detail and superior writing the case for China's overall stock market being undervalued. He mentioned LIWA in passing, along with some breathtaking numbers, and I looked into it. Unlike a disturbing number of Chinese stocks, LIWA's reported cash flow is comparable to its reported earnings, which are more than 1/10 its market cap, and almost 1/6 its EV. (Yes, its market cap is higher than its EV, because it has a crap tonne of cash on its balance sheet.)
So what? With negligible debt, a history of >40% earnings growth and >50% revenue growth, such a valuation is ridiculous, unless you just don't trust Chinese people. It's possible that all Chinese bookkeepers are lying. But that seems less likely in the case of Lihua, who isn't channel stuffing to any significant degree, than in the case of your typical fly-by-night Chinese stock. (Channel stuffing is when a company reports increases in sales and earnings when they take orders and record them as sales/earnings before getting paid, and instead of having real money, they just put the IOU on their books, calling it "Accounts Receivable," and act like it has value. I found a lot of it when I researched "fast-growing" Chinese stocks.)
Another good sign is how closely the free cash flow, subtracting out cash from stock sales, matches reported earnings pretty closely. They make cash, they report it as earnings. That's pretty much the way it's supposed to go. Throw in the 45-50% growth and PEV (price to enterprise value) of about 6.5, and you have what I believe to be an All Star stock.
Chris Graley, Good call on FRMSF.PK, and on leaving it open. You don't get to compound your gains in CAPS unless you leave your pick open.
