I believe this is the most speculative stock of this bunch. In fact, I would not be surprised if someone like a Baidu (BIDU) or a Netease (NTES) or Sina.com (SINA) might buy these guys out (similar to how Yahoo bought Hotjobs.com). I do recommend that risk averse investors stay away from this stock simply in lieu of the volatility it presents. To give you an idea, from Oct 2004 to December 2004, the stock went from $21 to $55 before falling back to $21 by the third week of January 2005. The rest of 2005 saw this stock trade as low as under $10, only to bounce back shortly a year ago to $31. The stock currently trades at around $18. Earnings and revenue growth has been steady at between 15-20%, and the stock trades at 25 times forward earnings. While not a bargain, this is the main source of job listings online and through print in China. And with non-farm related jobs increasing in the populous country, the stock should enjoy a booming market.
