Ich bin hier drin WKN 909622 China Mobile
The world’s largest mobile phone service provider is also on track to reach 300 million subscribers by the end of this year.
In September, China Mobile added 4.5 million new subscribers to reach a total of 287.2 million. Of this total, 222.8 million are prepaid customers while 64.3 million are postpaid subscribers. With an average monthly growth rate of 4.3 million, subscription numbers for the remaining months of the year would add up to the 300 million level. The number of China Mobile subscribers is already higher than that of the entire U.S.
The China Mobile share price closed at HK$59.15 on Monday, the highest since HK$61.25 on Sept. 8, 2000. Analysts believe that positive third-quarter results, involving a 23% net profit rise to RMB 15.9 billion, have caused the surge in share price.
The company’s revenues rose 20.8% to RMB 212 billion in the first nine months while profits went up 25% to RMB 46 billion.
Based on the results, both Merril Lynch and Citigroup have raised China Mobile’s target price to HK$65. Citigroup cites the under-penetrated rural markets as the key driver for China Mobile’s recent subscription growth.
Ob es diese Aktie zu 5,50 und drunter
noch mal geben wird, ist allerdings fraglich.
Vermute wir landen schon im Oktober bei über 6,50...
Wer bietet mehr...? ;-)
Gutes Investment, das.

Over half its new subscribers hail from rural markets, the company says.
The rural push, which has helped boost subscriber rolls, is one of the factors that helped China Mobile deliver an unexpectedly strong third quarter.
On Friday, the telecom outfit reported that its quarterly profits were up nearly 25% from last year's levels to about $2 billion on revenues of $9.58 billion. Sales grew 23%.
Market reaction was muted; the ADRs closed up 8 cents, or 0.2%, to $38 Friday and were recently up 23 cents, or 0.6%, to $38.23 Monday.
But even analysts who've gotten accustomed to upbeat news count themselves surprised.
"China Mobile appears to have landed on that sweet spot where it can do nothing wrong. Its rising scale has led to swelling results that surpassed our high expectations," writes Hong Kong-based Merrill Lynch analyst Wendy Liu in a note.
On the user growth front, China Mobile reached a total of 287 million subscribers as of the end of September -- not far below the 300 million population of the entire U.S.
China Mobile already claims a two-thirds share, based on revenues, dominating the smaller China Unicom (CHU - commentary - Cramer's Take - Rating).
And now it's likely to bolster its standing, as it romances the first generation of rural cell-phone users.

Wenn schon Telecom Aktien, dann in Ländern wo der Markt noch nicht gesättigt ist. China Mobile ist gerade dabei ins Landesinnere zu expandieren wo noch ein riesiger unerschlossener Bereich auf Handys wartet. Handys sind mittlerweie in China ein extremes Statussymbol und durch das massive Wirtschaftswachstum auch für immer größerere Personenkreise erschwinglich geworden.
Werde wohl auch noch aufstocken.
