Exactly winnotlose.

47 more of strongs with an average like that will dry up the float..LOL

Here is the chart :

GM everyone. Been a while. Nice to see new people and new strong hands. Here is the list with all strong hands :

Hey bjayathome, when we see good numbers in Q3 (IMO, It's good if Q3 is better than Q2), new longs will be attracted and we might reach 1B+ by Q4.
Even at the pace the longs grew this month (and at these prices) would 1B+ be reached soon.
zouf

To be exact : 797,767,092 confirmed and 918,587,999 ever recorded.

This month alone, 298,934,184 new shares LONG & STRONG!!

Thanks
Zouf

781,073,393 # are confirmed in strong hands.

There are some boardmembers who held quite some shares, but did not confirm yet, but who'll narrow down the gap RECORDED/CONFIRMED a lot. Hope to get a confirmation from Codesters soon.

China Food and Drink Report Q4 2010

The long-term outlook for China's food and drink sector remains strong, as reflected in the continued international interest and investments in the sector. However, the shorter-term outlook is less positive due to brewing economic difficulties. We believe that cracks are beginning to appear in the Chinese economy, which should grow in magnitude over the coming months. Inflation is heading higher and economic activity growth is heading lower, strengthening our case for a slowdown in economic activity in China as monetary policy is tightened further. We expect Chinese overheating to lead to a secondary slowdown in 2011, and are forecasting real GDP growth of 7.5% in 2011, with growth to remain around this level thereafter over the medium term, slowing industry growth.

Headline Industry Data

- 2010 per capita food consumption = +11.9%; forecast to 2014 = +54.1%
- 2010 beer volume sales = +13.7%; forecast to 2014 = +74.9%
- 2010 soft drink sales = +12%; forecast to 2014 = +65.4%
- 2010 mass grocery retail sales = +12%; forecast to 2014 = +64.2%

Key Company Trends

Soft Drinks Investments – Foreign investments continue to poor into China's soft drinks industry, fuelling the sector's bullish growth. In May 2010 US soft drinks behemoth PepsiCo unveiled a US$2.5bn threeyear spending plan for the Chinese beverage market following the completion of its US$1bn two-year China investment package, due to finish later this year. With its latest investment package, PepsiCo will look to fully exploit the country's vast opportunities while minimising the risks to which it is exposed. As well as expanding its soft drink and snack food production capacity, the company will also invest heavily in agricultural development, thus securing a degree of valuable control over its supply chain. PepsiCo will also invest in the development of beverages specifically designed for local tastes.

Retail Acquisitions – In July 2010 retail giant Carrefour was successful in acquiring a controlling 51% stake in Hebei-based hypermarket operator Baolongcang for an undisclosed sum. With the acquisition of Baolongcang coinciding with Carrefour's 159th Chinese hypermarket opening, the company clearly retains every intention of maintaining its position as the country's dominant international retailer. As is usually the case when a store networks come up for sale, competition for the Baolongcang network was fierce, with Vanguard, the grocery retail operation of Hong Kong-listed China Resources Enterprises, local firm WuMart and South Korea's Lotte Shopping, all believed to be in the running for the acquisition. Such attention for a single province retailer with just 11 stores speaks volumes about Chinese MGR's long-term potential.

Key Risks to Outlook

Double-Dip Ahead? – BMI expects a secondary slowdown in the Chinese economy, coupled with elevated risks of a bursting of the country's property bubble. In addition, brewing inflationary pressures could weigh on Chinese consumption as shoppers tighten their purse strings and restrict spending on consumer goods. Over the medium term, we are looking at a slight erosion of China's export competitiveness as a stronger yuan and increasing wage pressures take effect.
Food Safety Still A Concern – The local food and beverage industry continues to be plagued by problems such as poor food hygiene, and inferior safety standards. Over this past quarter alone, there were several incidents of authorities seizing large quantities of milk powder laced with melamine.

Thanks everyone for sending me your totals
I'm sure there are much more longs around here.

zouf

Hey whodis, you are in the list, but it might not show the last column on you screen. But I did forget to display you as confirmed.
Sorry 'bout that. Will be adjusted in the updated list.

zouf

135,428,346 shares went to strong hands this month alone !!!
That makes a confirmed total of 716,214,173 shares
Nice!

zouf

We almost have 700,000,000 shares confirmed in long & strong hands.
To everybody not confirmed, please do so if you like to

Nice to see Frank is working hard to expand this company.
patience will be rewarded.

zouf

Hi Hcotton, do you still own your 841,000 shares long and strong?
We're receiving lots of long confirmations since Q2 results came out (now at 696,264,173)
hope you're still in.
Will post an updated list later today

Thanks

Zouf

they are now holding 83,528,346 since Sept 2

zouf

Thanks ferris. don't worry, it's the numbers that count.
I just like to mess around with spreadsheets...

Does someone know how we need to interpret this list from and/or how does it fit in the short story?

Thanks

zouf

hey upper11. it is possible that you need to scroll to the right in order to see the whole list, as you are there.

I'll try to make the list a bit smaller, next time if not everybody can see the complete list.

zouf

I hope the remaining are in Bought and Forgotten mode and will soon come back to confim, but the gap between total recorded and confirmed is narrowing (and still going up as well) anyway.

Here is my chart

zouf

Good morning everybody. Thanks for posting the updates, confirmations, congratulations (you are very welcome). Sorry to keep you waiting. At first I thought to post 1 update per month, but I actually noticed that it attracts posts, and as I’m still convinced that we need to get in the spotlights as much as possible, I plan to provide updates, when the boards slow down.
If you are new to the board and/or holding long & strong and you are willing to share you’re totals, please let us know.
I’m continuing the list started by ferris68, to keep track of all the shares in strong hands.
Since the latest update last week, some big numbers are confirmed which made our confirmed total pop to 682,912,796.

Total recorded is now 832,685,148

Thanks again!

zouf

Well thanks a lot everyone. I wish that was true farsue, but 821,126,967 is the last ttl of ferris68 + the updates members posted since.

And a bit as a double check are those who confirmed their holdings during the past 2 weeks - ttl = 555,377,792 as it is not sure if everybody is still long since the 2ndQ news.

I hope to see confirmation of the remaining 265,749,175 and may we also attract new long investors as well, so the float (1,297,000,000) starts disappearing

Will the board hold 1B by end of the year?
would be great! (maybe wishfull thinking of me, but when more people get to know this gem....)

Zouf

Thanks everybody for posting your share totals. Names in BLUE cells are confirmed (total: 555,377,792 in 57 pair of strong hands)


GLTA

zouf

Thanks Laylos! - jpate, herbieholt57, ouroboros, willi1, pedromm and gotch, I got you updated
That makes 489,391,348 confirmed (by 46 boardmembers).
I guess I'll provide the new list a bit sooner than next month.
GLTA
Zouf

Thanks Dragon5 for the feedback. Unfortunately I cannot PM, otherwise I would have checked with everybody, who did not update their totals, in person.
TOTAL confirmed is : 485,266,348 shares, but I expect more feedback after everybody noticed the chart.
I read every post since 17th July.
Maybe some people PM'ed ferris...
I also did not count when people post "I plan to add every week this and that amount"...

Zouf

Hey Ferris68.
I hope your PC problems are solved. I also kept track of the shares held by the board and as I read from time to time that some still are curious about the totals. Below is an update since Ferris last update from July 17th.


Every name in BLUE are comfirmed numbers. Names in PURPLE did not appear anymore in Ferris' last list, and I hope the rest can confirm that they are still long and strong.

Ferris, feel free to take over again. Otherwise I hope to provide an update myself next month (or earlier if our Dragon suddenly goes through the roof...)
