Titolo: ASTT tiene in AH

a 3.02
A mio avviso fino agli earnings ha ancora margini di crescita.
Ecco perchè non mollo. Anzi vi dirò, se non ne avessi da buttare i soldi che
ci ho messo dentro li lascerai lì e me li dimenticherei per tuto il 2004.
Visti i margini di crescita della cina, 8,2% all'anno contro il tasos di
crscita USA fermo al 3%. E ASTT è davvero sottovalutata rispetto agli altri
titoli del nuovo indice USX.
3,14 dove sei finito???
Avevo dimenticato che eri entrato in ASTT in seguito alla mia segnalazione e
al mio primo target a 3.00.
Che ne dici? Soddisfatto??  ;-)))

 titoli del nuovo indice USX.
Ecco la press release del lancio del nuovo indice USX, ricordo che è un
indicie dedicato alle 20 (o 22, non ricordo adesso) aziende cinesi quotate a
New York. Insomma non è uno scherzo.
USX China Index Launched Today - Is the Only Index Devoted to
Chinese-Focused Public Companies Traded on U.S. Stock Exchanges
Monday October 20, 6:00 am ET
DALLAS, Oct. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- In response to growing interest among
investors in publicly traded securities with operations in China, the USX
China Index was launched today as the only index in the world devoted
exclusively to Chinese-focused public companies traded on U.S. stock
exchanges.
While the USX China Index will be available for newspapers and financial
media worldwide, investors will also be able to access the index via the
Internet at 
www.usxchinaindex.com
 starting today.
"The birth of an index devoted exclusively to Chinese-focused publicly held
companies with their securities traded on U.S. stock exchanges was long
overdue," said Tim Halter, managing director of the USX China Index. "It's
appropriate that we launched the index earlier today in Shanghai, China, at
a news conference. The response there has been very enthusiastic. There is a
need and demand from investors for this unique index. We anticipate a
positive response throughout Asia, North America and elsewhere."
He noted that China has the fastest-growing economy in the world. In 2002,
China surpassed the U.S. as the largest recipient of direct foreign
investment, an indicator that "smart money" is rushing into China. "In
contrast to the gloomy mood in the U.S. the past few years, in China I see
people with a twinkle in their eye as their country experiences an economic
boom of historic proportions," Halter said.
Nowhere is this more dramatically reflected than in the results of the USX
China Index for the past 52 weeks. For this period, the USX China Index was
up 136% compared to Nasdaq and the Dow Jones Industrial Average, which were
up only 52% and 22% respectively for the same period.
"The stocks in the USX China Index offer investors the opportunity to invest
in China with the safety of the U.S.-regulated securities markets," Halter
explained. "All of the companies in the index are public reporting companies
that have their stocks traded on U.S. exchanges which are governed by the
Securities and Exchange Commission."
Initially, 22 public companies will be represented in the USX China Index.
To be included in the USX China Index, companies must meet the following
criteria:
     *  Their primary business is conducted in China.
     *  Their common stock is traded on U.S. exchanges
     *  Each company's market capitalization is more than $50 million
     *  The company is approved by the USX China Index selection committee
        which considers additional factors such as trading volume, public
        interest and shares available to the investing public.
