Interesting ZDnet Take>

Qiao Xing Universal Telephone (Nasdaq: XING),
Qualcomm (Nasdaq: QCOM) After a month-long
downturn, Qualcomm may have been due for today's
recovery. The stock got a boost today from news that
it's close to a deal with China's second largest
telephone service company, China United
Telecommunications.

But I suspect another catalyst came in the form of Qiao
Xing's announcement of tax exemptions for the next six
years in China.

Income taxes in the first six months of last year took
$1.13 million -- 12 cents per share or about 27 percent
of pre-tax income -- from the bottom line of Qiao Xing,
the second largest Chinese phone maker. Investors see
Qiao Xing, which has CDMA licenses, as good way to
play the expansion of wireless technology in China.
Presumably anything that's good for Qiao Xing is good
CDMA patent czar Qualcomm. Conversely,
Qualcomm's potential deal with China United may have
pushed Qiao Xing rising shares even higher than they
would have gone on the tax deal alone. 22GO
