When company's begin blaming short-sellers in lieu of  fundamental inadequacies.. It is game, set , match.

As suspected (see my previous posting on CHIO), there is a clear revenue-growth problem with this company. Last week they filed their first Quarter results for 2010, and revenue has declined dramatically (from 4mio$ to 670K!!).

It also seems that they are burning cash at a quick pace, so it could mean that they will have to raise capital in the near future. As we often experience in the China Hybrid Space, this could mean a horrible dilution. Especially when the stock price is artificially depressed due to short-activity by naked short sellers.

So in my opinion, the press release of today, revealing that they will combat the naked short shellers, is rather a sign of bad news coming than of good news.

Although we could see a short squeeze today, my advice is not to buy until the fundamental growth path of CHIO is resumed. Even if this stock might seem extremely cheap.

Dutchtrader could you email me at hompie@ziggo.nl , cant find you on IEX.

Thanks.......

It has been on the radar lately and maybe we are going to test the $ 1.00 mark soon. Most of the short term indicators are positive on a technical basis.

I was lucky to buy this one at $ 0.41 and stick to it, because I think the coming quarters are going to be much better. The insurance market in China is booming and with the new president Mr. Han they have an experienced person on the right place.

A positive article about the company's fundamentals.

Dutchtrader,

Be careful!

In fact, their EPS for this quarter was only 0,03$. Last quarter it was 0,08$. So that's clearly declining and not really encouraging in a growth country like China. Furthermore since I bought my first CHIO's 6 months ago, EPS was always positive, but declining for the consecutive quarters.

A few weeks ago they announced a new contract which is valued 1,750,000 $. I think, that if they are announcing such a small contract, it might mean that they have nothing else to tell.

You are right though, that if all the "if's" an "might's" associated with their new business initiative, become realised, it will be a bargain at these price-levels.

However, I think there are enough alternatives with low PE's at the moment, whose EPS are improving every quarter.

 That's why I sold all my shares at 0,5$ (and took my losses).

Good luck on your investment!

They came today with results $0.11 for the first 6 months vs. $0.08...........the company wants to build up an online insurance supermarket where people can buy their insurance. I guess this has to be a big market with a huge potential. I bought today some shares at these level ($0.51), just for the long run. The company got a delisting note what also got some pressure on the stockprice. They had some problems with their insurance advertising business but their software business was solid as a rock. I guess if they can make the big turnaround the coming quarters this stock will be trading at $ 2.00 before the end of the year.

China INsonline is clearly not on the radar. The price is already months in a downtrend. Book value is $ 0.58 and they run as it seems a profitable business.

Who can give me a clear update and is it worthly to invest in for the long run?
