• Miss This Stock and You’re Missing Great Returns

  By Harsh Chauhan - May 18, 2013 | Tickers: ATVI, NTES

  2012 was a forgetful year for NetEase (NASDAQ: NTES), as the Chinese online gaming giant was beaten down badly in the second half of the year after a string of awful quarterly reports. But, I knew that the company’s business was strong enough and it would be just a matter of time before it bounces back. As expected, this year has been great so far for NetEase investors as more »

• 3 Stocks In The Internet Niche Market

  By Victor Selva - May 16, 2013 | Tickers: NTES, SFLY, Z

  Over the last decade, the internet has opened a lot of opportunities for those who find a niche in the market and know how to make it capitalize (and monetize) it. Shutterfly (NASDAQ: SLFY), Netease (NASDAQ: NTES) and Zillow (NASDAQ: Z) are three companies in the internet services sector that are worth a closer look as growth prospects look promising for long-term investors.

  A promising brand

  By Nick Chiu - May 13, 2013 | Tickers: EBAY, NTES, SINA, SOHU

  Alibaba, known as China's eBay, is buying 18% stake in SINA's (NASDAQ: SINA) Weibo, known as China's Twitter, for $586 million. Alibaba, founded by Jack Ma, has acquired preferred and ordinary shares and has the option to increase its stake to 30%. The new contract will value SINA Weibo at around $3.3 billion, whereas Alibaba is currently valued at around $55 billion as estimated by analysts more »

• $10 Billion Fund Bullish on This ‘Fab Four’

  By Meena Krishnamsetty - April 27, 2013 | Tickers: MU, NTES, WFT, WLP

  Orbis Investment Management has a $10 billion 13F portfolio managed by William Gray. The firm invests in value stocks using contrarian ideals mixed with a fundamental analysis of each company, in combination with a top-down stock picking approach. Judging by the largest positions in the fund, we can see favorable economic trends first, company fundamentals second quite clearly. Orbis seems to follow a strategy of narrowing down certain sectors of more »

• Three Stocks For The Long Haul

  By Declan Fallon - March 6, 2013 | Tickers: ATVI, ALNY, ISIS, NTES, THC

  I have reviewed over 80 stocks as investment opportunities. Some were more successful than others; for example, Tesoro Corporation (best performer) gained 99% within a sector that has underperformed the broader market, but Penn Virginia Corp (worst performer) dropped 33% and is unlikely to recover from the share dilution that cut the price. Collectively, 65% of the stocks I have featured have gained, with an average return of 6.6 more »

• Why This Online Gaming Stock Looks Good

  By usha patodia - February 21, 2013 | Tickers: ATVI, NTES, SINA

  In the global video game industry, the United States dominates in terms of sales. The video game industry generated approximately $50 billion worldwide in 2012, and $18 billion of that came from the United States. The US dominance, however, won’t last forever, as more and more countries begin to spend more time and money on video games.

  China is growing at an exponential pace. The entire Chinese gaming industry more »

• A Few Reasons This Stock Should Have a Great Year Ahead

  By Harsh Chauhan - February 14, 2013 | Tickers: ATVI, NTES

  After NetEase (NASDAQ: NTES) had posted yet another set of poor results in last year’s third quarter, many investors would have had lost faith in the Chinese gaming giant. But the bad times couldn’t have continued forever since NetEase has been continually improving its business.

  Hence, the fact that NetEase delivered solid results in its recently reported fourth quarter shouldn’t come as a surprise to long-term investors more »

• Is Changyou Right for You?

  By Leo Sun - January 28, 2013 | Tickers: CYOU, GA, NTES, PWRD, GAME |

  Over the past decade, many analysts have touted the strength of Chinese Internet stocks, one of the fastest growing sectors in the world’s second largest economy. However, I think a lot of investors are overlooking an important market in China - online gaming. This market is a young one with plenty of growth potential, growing 35.1% year-on-year in 2012.

  Thus I present my undervalued growth stock of the day more »

• The Golden Rule of Investing

  By W.V. Bards - December 17, 2012 | Tickers: COST, NTES

  Dump your fish in the dry pond, and hope it will rain.  

  Why the heck would I ever do that?  I don't want to watch my angel fish, 12 dollars and very dear to me, wither away and die.  Or my goldfish, six dollars, named Joachim after an old friend, asphyxiate on a lack of water.

  Similarly, why would I ever throw my hard-earned money at a struggling stock more »

• Five Stocks Hit Hard by Sellers, But Two Still Offer Something for Buyers

  By Declan Fallon - November 28, 2012 | Tickers: CHK, ISIS, MELI, NTES, SPLK

  It has been just over a month since my last review.  In that post I featured stocks which were existing holdings of mine.  For the record, I added to these positions in November as I took advantage of the 9% drop in the S&P.  Under my investing thesis, the market hadn't reached the level I like to see to add new positions, but that is not to say more »

• This Gaming Stock Looks Like Chaff for Now, but Will it Become the Wheat?

  By Harsh Chauhan - November 21, 2012 | Tickers: ATVI, GA, NTES, PWRD, TCEHY.PK

  I have been quite bullish about the prospects of Chinese online gaming company Perfect World (NASDAQ: PWRD). However, it seems that the company is not able to tap the huge opportunity presented by online gaming in China, a fact that can be seen quite clearly in its quarterly reports.

  After a strong start to the year, Perfect World’s earnings have been going down for a number of reasons. The more »

  This week Global X Funds celebrates the one year anniversary of their Global X Social Media Index ETF (NASDAQ: SOCL).  CEO Bruno del Ama discusses the reasoning behind the fund and considers trends and projections based on previous revolutions in global business.

• The Time Seems Right to Buy This Beaten Down Stock

  By Harsh Chauhan - November 15, 2012 | Tickers: ATVI, NTES, TCEHY.PK

  “But it ain't about how hard ya hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward.”

  -Rocky Balboa

  The above line applies perfectly to those who have their money invested in Chinese gaming company NetEase (NASDAQ: NTES). The last two quarters have been simply bad for the company. It missed estimates by a wide margin in the second-quarter that was reported back in August more »

• Social Media is a “Super-Cycle” Built for Two – or Two Billion

  By Nick Slepko - November 15, 2012 | Tickers: FB, SOCL, GXG, NTES, TCEHY.PK

  This week Global X Funds celebrates the one year anniversary of their Global X Social Media Index ETF (NASDAQ: SOCL).  Since its inception, a number of major social media stocks have IPO’d and the fund has continued to provide exposure not only to US properties, but also recognizes the international and niche dimensions of the recent phenomenon – non-US companies currently comprise over half the ETF’s holdings (half of more »

• This Company's Secret 18%+ Dividend

  By Chad Henage - September 14, 2012 | Tickers: ATVI, NTES, PWRD

  It's a shame when investors don't really listen to what a company is saying. It's also a shame when investors use too short of a time horizon to try and predict the future of a company. Both of these issues are occurring with Perfect World (NASDAQ: PWRD). This international gaming company offers a potential dividend that investors are ignoring, and growth that short-term analysis doesn't take into account.

• This Online Gaming Stock Looks Good for the Long Run

  By Harsh Chauhan - September 4, 2012 | Tickers: ATVI, GA, GLUU, NTES, GAME

  The online gaming companies in China have had a difficult time this earnings season. A few of them, such as NetEase (NASDAQ: NTES) and Perfect World, were hammered into the ground after their results and outlook failed to satisfy the Street. But some, like Shanda Games (NASDAQ: GAME) and Giant Interactive (NYSE: GA), have managed to buck the trend and have saved their investors from the agony of a stock more »

• Perfect World Might be Down, but it’s Surely Not Out

  By Harsh Chauhan - August 31, 2012 | Tickers: ATVI, NTES, PWRD, GAME

  Even the most promising of players might hit a rough patch. But that doesn’t mean that their flair has diminished. The same can be said about Chinese online game developer Perfect World (NASDAQ: PWRD). After an exhilarating report at the beginning of 2012, Perfect World has failed to replicate the same charm so far.

  The company has failed to satisfy the Street and brought despair to investors after its more »

• This Game’s not Over Yet, Are you Willing to Play?

  By Harsh Chauhan - August 24, 2012 | Tickers: ATVI, NTES, TCEHY.PK

  A few times every earnings season, a stock is brutally hammered if it comes up with a bad report, or a bad outlook, or a combination of both. The Street is quite unforgiving in this regard and sometimes even those companies that might get their act together in the future are also punished heavily, opening up an opportunity for savvy investors to get in.

• Volume Slips Despite the Market Finding Support at Session Lows; CSCO Soars in After-Hours Trade

  By Joshua Hayes - August 15, 2012 | Tickers: CSCO, FLT, KORS, NTES, PRGO, ROST

  Led by a solid rally from the Russell 2000, stocks found support more than once throughout the day. New home builder confidence was better than expected again as consumer prices were below expectations according to government figures. Unfortunately, the economic figures didn’t spark any sort of excitement among institutions. Volume was lower on the day and certainly a black mark on the day, but it was the fact the more »

• You Should Take a Look at this Giant

  By Harsh Chauhan - August 7, 2012 | Tickers: ATVI, GA, NTES

  I really love to play games, and don’t feel ashamed when I’m pulled up for playing hours at a stretch. Because when I’m playing, I forget about all the worries in life to focus on how to kill that big, bad boss or work on my next great strategy. It’s an addiction and a very costly one for me at least. I have spent quite a more »
