Hi, ex-Dilbert. XING: I was eyeing it at 23, but couldn't make an informed decision.

Pure comedy as it turns out:

09/01 08:27 China executives play down Qiao Xing <XING.O> news

BEIJING, Sept 1 (Reuters) Qiao Xing, a China-based telecoms equipment maker, saw its stock rise almost 72 percent on Thursday -- the biggest gainer on Nasdaq -- after it announced the Chinese government would help fund its research on CDMA mobile technology.

But the research grant, which Qiao Xing's chairman said would be around 10 million yuan ($1.21 million) this year, was by no means a green light for the company to manufacture or sell CDMA equipment, industry executives said.

"This is a governmental fund to build up research and development capability," said an executive at another Chinese telecoms firm that won a grant.

"It has nothing to do with markets."


Oops. Oh well, even amateur investors make mistakes sometimes.

XING currently sinking back from 23 to its Wednesday price of 12.
