But It is totally awesome! I dont know how many publicly traded companies you look into, but I would like to tell you about one that I feel is trading ridiculously below fair value. It's name is China Wood Inc. symbol CNWD, its a freshly reverse merged china based company. If you review their latest 10Q you will see 42 million is assets, relatively no debt, 4.4 million in net profits for the quarter and 10 million outstanding shares. All of this and trading at $2.50! look into it and let me know what you think. Have a great day and I love your blog!
