look at DRYS.......look at a recent news report on China spending
20Bil on a Provincial Railway Project/

look at BHP

lol - Indeed, Mike. Way to stay strong and long...what other choice do
we have, right?

Fran - I thought I was the only one as well.  Its been a lonely place
for a long time.

My assumption was that the recent steady swings were incremental buy
backs. Perhaps today they simply bought back a "bit" more?  I'm no
expert, just taking an amateur-ish guess.

I've looked around and not found anything on their website or any of
the typical places (Nasdaq, bloomberg etc.).  The buyback they talked
about in Oct was for 10% of shares outstanding, can't imagine they'd
do it all in one day...

Hot Dog! The discussion boards have been dead. I was beginning to
think I'm one of the only investors in SINO out there. Yes - what's
the news? I don't have time to research it at the moment cause of work.

Anyone know why this took off today?  Can't find any news but loving
the ride.

Can anyone explain the heavier volume and 20% gain today (11.28)? Was
there a major buy or positive news?

Fat NOOOOO from me :(

Lot's of news from Sino today. Sounds like they also got a new
executive on board. Does any of it restore faith for anyone out there?

Pardon me for being so negative but remember that for a stock to
double it's price it has to soar 100%. We are not talking only double
the price but 3 folds or up to 6 folds of loses on Sino ($4.5 vs $26).
That is +600% to get to $26 :) Can you possibly imagine that to ever
happen again considering the market status? Once a wise man posted to
this board, "It's time to short-sell this dog" and so it was!

Thanks for the insight Jason, I knew the Chinese economy and currency
were weakening but never thought about the effects of the ban that was
put in place.  If anything, I thought the Olympics would have boosted
the economy and this stock.  Is that ban there to stay?

The reason for the falling knife is because China has been dead for
the past couple months.  Due to the ban that was put in place to
control smog prior to and during the Olympics, they have all but
stopped importing and using coal, steel, oil, and copper the way they
were previously.  This kills Sino's business.

Also, the Chinese markets have been getting killed, their economy has
fallen drastically, and their currency is getting weaker.  There are
so many factors working against this stock right now.

However (silver lining), China will continue to build infrastructure
which will require them to ship all sorts of commodities in.  Just be
patient and everybody that bought much higher, its a terrible mistake
to sell at this point.

Watch the Baltic Dry Index.  When that starts to turn upward for good,
Sino should as well.  That is the key indicator here.

Good luck all
