It was discovered, (not by me), that the earnings estimate for 2008 was in Yuans and not U.S. dollars.   I had 5 web sites all reporting it in U.S. currency but the news release from the company clearly stated that was not the case.  Since 1 yuan = about 14 cents, U.S., the estimate of $7.00 a share suddenly became about $1.00 per share. 

Forced to deal with this fact and the false information I was reading everywhere, I had to do the research all over again.  After doing that, I came to the conclusion that $1.00 is very low and I would expect something in the $3.00 range.  If I'm right, and with a PE of 15, that makes it a $45 stock in 2008 plus or minus hype and mania.  It is currently trading at a PE of nearly 100 based on 2007 expectations so obviously if that held up through next year, it could go to $100 or $300 .. or, it could all go up in smoke. 

So, I am sliding a stop which will guarantee me a 300% return on my investment and will make new decisions as factors warrant.  Also, should I get stopped out, there is little doubt I will get back in if it drops much further.  Again, I apologize to all who I may have misled about the firm's earnings but most sites are still reporting the mean estimate for 2008 as $6.87 U.S.

Just curious, Bob.  Have you changed your mind about SOLF being a potential $100 stock in 2008?  If not, why get stopped out by temporary market action?  Or do you just subscribe to the philosophy that you can't go broke taking a profit.  In any event, although I am not a frequent contributor (twice/year average), I read every piece and always appreciate your ideas.  Incidentally, my wife still has CHK in her retirement account, with a nice profit, thanks to you.

Thanks Ben.  Also, SOLF was up 2% (.69) on 4.3 mil shares.  It's getting close to a 4 bagger now and I'm sliding a stop behind it.
