the China Investment Letter:
This company in China is gaining 4 million new customers every single month.
We're confident this stock could double in one year and at least triple your investment within two years.
This opportunity is similar to Microsoft back when it was a new, fast-growing company. Its stock turned $5,000 into $1.8 million.

Microsoft just signed a huge deal to help this small Chinese company sell its software!

stockcrazy10, thanks, but I don't think either one is it.

Microsoft helps the company sell its software, not selling software to it.

CHA is not currently adding 4 million new subscribers a month, but China Mobile is, and it also has a deal with Microsoft. It's definitely a blue chip. China Mobile has the greatest growth potential among emerging market telecoms, according to analyses that I've read, though it is facing tougher competition than many others. It is definitely not a small company, however, so this is probably not the one.

Microsoft does have a deal with CDC (ticker symbol CHINA), which I used to see touted as the next Microsoft of China, but I don't see how they could be getting 4 million new customers a month. Maybe it's a software company that has a deal with China Mobile as well, so it could be piggybacking. CDC has a deal with one of China Mobile's subsidiaries. But that's really stretching it.

Blue Chip refers to a company that has stable earnings and little or no large liabilities. COGO has been around since 1917 (started as Comtech Group).
Maybe this will shed some light, maybe not:

The article goes back around six months, so the "just signed a huge deal" may be deliberately misleading.

I think stockcrazy must be correct. I looked at Microsoft's home page and found that they have 43 "embedded" partnerships in China, but COGO is the only one traded in the U.S.

Everyone is assuming this is a consumer and not a business product. What if the end consumer is a business. 4,000 new users per month is not a lot in China

COGO seems to pop up in most screens for small Chinese stocks.

An article on seekingalpha.com mentioned COGO as a company that might benefit from China's 3G expansion:

COGO also showed up on a Fallen Angel 'Lite' list. This is the COGO-specific comment:

"I'm not sure I like this company's new name (it used to be called Comtech) but I do like its business. This China-based firm serves contract manufacturers by designing modules they can use in their products, which thus far have primarily been in wireless communications. Interestingly, though, it gets recurring revenue. Part of the arrangement requires its customers to make the modules using components they buy from COGO.

Yes, yes, yes, I know handset demand is iffy and prices are under pressure. But looking at the big picture, is anyone arguing with a straight face that product evolution in this area is even close to winding down? As is usually the case, the major growth opportunities of the next decade are likely to be things we don't yet know about. But to the extent we can mine existing fields for forward growth ideas, wireless probably remains a pretty good choice.

The company is talking about expanding into other areas. (That may be why they changed the name; to get rid of the Com, as in communications.) If this pans out, so much the better. But frankly, I'm satisfied with the communications exposure."

COGO is also involved in digital media (developing encoding solutions for set-top boxes):

Patches, COGO serves over 200 clients, including leading foreign OEMs and virtually every major wireless and telecom equipment manufacturer in China.

COGO is involved with cell phones:

"On July 31, 2008, the Company acquired 70% of the outstanding shares of Long Rise Holdings Limited (Long Rise) and its subsidiary, which are engaged in the provision of design and distribution of mobile phone modules."

Here's COGO's description of it's business. Sorry if it sounds like a commercial...it probably is:

"Cogo components are part of your everyday life. We can be found in almost every phone, computer, digital media device and in your car.

As a design solutions provider, Cogo procures core technologies from vendors and suppliers that produce critical enabling components. Cogo then develops application technologies around these enabling components.

I think stockcrazy is right, and this is the company, but you should check out the fundamentals, which are shaky. The touts never seem to care about the bottom line of a company. If I were looking for a Chinese tech company, I'd check out VIT (Vanceinfo) and TSTC (Telestone), both of which have better numbers. Not a recommendation, and I don't own them, but they're on my radar screen.

It might be a negative if Navellier is recommending this stock. His record is poor (and that's being kind).

NOK seems to be pulling out of the ditch and could be a major beneficiary of growth in China.

and here's what "uncle" Bob Hsu has to say about COGO and courtesy of moneyshow.com, I didn't have to violate his copyright agreement, anyhow his latest COGO tout and no mention of microsoft.
