Nice uptick on big volume, suggests that many investors agree with you AJ. Welcome. Please overlook our two mentally challenged denizens and direct your thoughts and contributions to the good folks of the community. There is nothing inherently wrong with selling short but we all agree incessant, shameless bashing to drive the price of a stock down is unacceptable. Consequently, our "friends" are referred to by the apropos moniker "Dirty Shorts".

AJacks....Thank you for joining SI ....I see this is your very first post Did you join SI just to make this comment and talk about GTCI? Unfortunately GTCI isn't just NOT the first.... GTCI isn't well positioned at all. GTCI is NOT the second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth.......keep counting, either.....competing over what is right now a relatively small market (1.2 mil) that may or may not become a large contingent upon a myriad of risk factors ranging from costs to government control. While doing your 'dd' did you happen to come across a link to GTCI's Chinese ISP site? How about a GTCI site where you can download a copy of GTCI's y2k fix? Per GTCI's paid PR WSRG's GTCI may supposedly already be the "AOL" of China making $0.69 EPS by end of '99...does your 'dd' support this? Despite the WSRG "report" and "news" price hasn't moved out of a narrow range...Price was actually down from yesterday's open... These are NOT good signs... Well, anyway....SI should really give me and bobcat a cut from your membership for encouraging you to join....now come on and dazzle me with your brilliant "dd"...I suppose like "Tim", this will be the only thread to which you post?......I can't wait for the additional amusement... Sincerely, ztect

Hi Ajack, I think you're absolutely right when you commented on the potential size of the Chinese telecom/internet market and that GTCI will undoubtedly benfit from this. Most experts agree that the Chinese internet market will be the bigget market in Asia surpassing that of Australia and Japan by 2001. In addition, there have been a very strong increase in the number of Chinese websites and the resultant number of web pages in China. This is for most part due to many new technologies being made available to the Chinese markets such as Windows 98' Chinese version, voice recognition Chinese software, and many more such tools designed to facilitate the growth and usage of the internet in China. Furthermore, looking at GTCI's business plan, you will realize that it is much more than just an ISP company in China. The scope of business they are encompasses areas such as, e-commerce, internet-telephony services, software development, systems integration services, computer networking, etc. In other words, they will become a full-service IT company expanding into other high growth areas in China as well as other Asian countries. As I have said before, the demand for telecom products and services in China and for most part in Asia is insatiable and essentially fuel for growth. Therefore, companies such as GTCI with good connections with the governement and a good business strategy will have a good chance of succeeding in the future. Small companies are often much more nimble and are more adaptive to market changes and demands as we have seen evident of this time after time in the US. I think it is absolute nonsense when naysayers are constantly espousing the assertion that small companies can never compete with big companies because they will get "rolled-over." If that was the case we would have never witnessed the rise of such companies such as Dell, Netscapse, Cisco Systems, Amazon.com, Yahoo, etc., because lest not we forget that these were all small companies at one time!
