GSH: This is a great China play, sole railway operator in the richest area in China, paid 6-8% dividend in the past 5 years, business growing.
I bought couple thousand shares when SARS news was all over the place (this is my style, once I determined a good stock to own, I always buy/add when short term bad news hit). I paid $8-9.5 and already got a $0.60/share dividend last month. I was hoping to buy more but the price moved pretty fast trading on thin volume. Look like it is being discovered by some big buyers and the train is leaving the station...
I do think GSH will be able to make a 20-30% gain comfortably in a year, potentially a 50-100% gain in the next 1-3 years, even from the current $11.40 price.
