GRRF 3Q 09 EPS

I decided to hold this one through their earnings ( a highly risky proposition) and it has paid off. Closed normal hours trading at 4.92 after it was pinned flat all day. Trading 5.60 here in the after hours. Showing a 24.26% gain on this trade now. Shorts are trapped here, and they could gap this one yet even higher in the morning. A very key level is the 23.6% retracement which sits at $5.27. I would like to see that level hold in as support. Holding that level would be very positive going forward. Failure to hold that level will cause me to get flat in this name. Tomorrow's action will bring in a lot of day traders, so there is most likely going to be a shake out several sessions down the road. TSTC also reports on Friday, so we have another catalyst as they are in the same sector.

The IBD investor in me thinks that this one could be a 15$ stock at some point in the future as it hits more radar screens. I don't want to make a mistake similar to STAR and get out before the full potential is met. However, these Chinese stocks are slippery as to "when the music stops" regarding accounting standards. Price and volume will guide us as to our ultimate decision. Tangible book value is reported as being 8.95, so to a value player this one is still cheap.
