Bob,
with all due respect I disagree about SOLF data.
It
looks like datavendors are messing RMB with USD, so let's go
to the
original:
http://investors.solarfun.com.cn/releasedetail.cfm?ReleaseID=279084
which
says:
"-- Earnings per basic ADS were RMB 1.24 (US$ 0.17), in the third
quarter of 2007, a 22% gain from the same quarter a year ago and
190% above 2Q 2007. "
So if EPS estimate is in USD, then 1.23 is
a sound number. The
question is - EPS estimate on Yahoo page is in RMB
or in USD ?
I had the same problems with Zacks data during
trial.
Sincerely,
Michael
Re: [RT] near a bottom/SOLF
I'm afraid this topic could go on and on since everyone has the
services for information that they have grown to trust. Let me
simply say that if Reuters says 1.23 for 2008, they expect them to
have a huge fall off in sales since they just earned 1.24 in the
last *quarter*, beating estimates by 257%. I get Reuters news and
there are errors in it daily so we must trust who we do. I thank
you
for your thoughts on the matter .. one can not have too much
information
in our business

Hi !
IMHO best source is Reuters, which gives 1.23 EPS
for 2008.

Data
on Zacks is of low quality, esp. for foreign stocks, I had some
e-mail
discussion with their stuff when using their trial.
Yahoo Finance in
several last months also has problems with correct
data.
Sincerely,
Michael.
