Hi Jonas, I have Hutchison indirectly via the wife's account and have held through thick and thin as we in Hong Kong do not like to feel left out, whether on the way down or up. US senators seem to think Hutchison is a communist Chinese front company set to dominate the Panama canal. To me, the only places communist between the two shores of the Pacific Ocean is in California and North Korea. But I am off topic.

Betting on 9984 is a bet on Son. Betting on Hutchison/Cheung Kong is a bet on Li Ka Shing. Betting on PCCLF is on the younger Li.

I would not want to short Harcourt. I would not want to buy either. Now, I am of the opinion that in the i-net space, money makes might and makes right. Look at Chinadotcom, come up with a shlocky plan, get it funded, hire the big guns, authorize them to change the scholky plan, and watch the valuation go north.

Treat it as a game. With serious money, stay with quality. Play on the side with spare change.
