CAPS Rating:
****

China-based pharmaceutical and biotechnology R&D outsourcing company which provides a integrated portfolio of laboratory and manufacturing services in the drug discovery and development process to pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

CAPS put this in my inbox under weekly stock ideas. Well, I'm too lazy to do research so I'm going to go out on a limb and say under perform. I say under perform ONLY because I don't know the goals of this company.

If I said no more you should be thinking__hmm what are the largest cost drivers for Pharma. Scratching my chin, I would have to say___hmmm R&D, FDA, Phd's, and of course marketing. Congratulations....tell them what they've won Bob!

R&D and PHd's are large drivers of cost, so is the development and testing as well as prep for mass prdtn of said compounds.

Phd's in China work on average $.15-$.20 on the dollar compared to US counterparts (sometimes $.10) The Drug & Biotech companies can't shave costs from the FDA, nor Marketing like they can save major $ outsourcing research. Oila!! just like my ole alma mater semiconductors & sftwe, we have found another item to export_you guessed it. Nuf said

"We provide pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies around the world with a full spectrum of drug R&D services. A key testament to the strength of our company is the quality of our customer base. We have worked with 90 customers so far in 2009, including nine of the top ten global pharmaceutical companies and we have experienced 100% repeat business from our top ten customers over the last three years."

I own it and continue to accumulate_another no brainer....

*This is part of a new game I'll be playing with CAPS recommendation. For every stock selection they send, I will spend no more then ten minutes looking at it before deciding if it will over perform or under perform.

That is, until there is a new No. 1 stock!
