		<description><![CDATA[We have upgraded our long-term recommendation from Underperform to Neutral on China Unicom (CHU) based on strong 3G subscriber additions. China&#8217;s second largest mobile operator’s 3G business is performing well and reached 27 million subscribers at August end. The growth was primarily driven by Apple Inc.’s (AAPL) iPhone sales. With this, China Unicom has achieved its target of expanding its user base beyond 25 million by this year-end. Further additions would indicate growth prospects in China Unicom’s mobile 3G business, and will subsequently result in higher average revenue per user. We believe China Unicom continues to make significant progress in expanding economies of scale in 3G, broadband and other businesses that will likely improve its overall revenue and profitability. The company is also poised to benefit from the stabilization in ]]></description>

Vodafone owns 45% of Verizon Wireless and Verizon owns the remaining 55%. With the majority holding, Verizon has a right to approve a resumption of dividend payment that was suspended during the last 7 years due to the high debt levels at Verizon Wireless. Accordingly, the company has sustained its focus on maximizing free cash flow, maintaining a strong balance sheet and reducing debt.

		<description><![CDATA[China&#8217;s second largest mobile operator China Unicom (CHU) is confident of expanding its 3G user base beyond its expectation. In April, China Unicom added 1.817 million subscribers reaching a total customer base of 20.352 million. This was less than 1.855 million customers added in March. Despite the slowdown in new users in April, the company expects to exceed its previous target of 25 million 3G users in fiscal 2011. The company’s 3G business is performing well and is expected to sustain the momentum well into the future. 3G remains a compelling opportunity and represents the single biggest driver of the company’s long-term growth. For the full year, capital spending on the 3G network is estimated at RMB 73.80 billion. We believe China Unicom will continue to make significant progress in ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Global events weighed on investor sentiment to drag US indices lower on Monday. While rising concerns about the euro-zone debt situation significantly dampened benchmarks, disappointing manufacturing data from China stepped in to further pressurize the indices amidst the lack of any domestic data. All of the 30 components that make up the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA), except one, were in the red and the index declined 1.1% to close at 12,381.26. Only McDonald&#8217;s Corp. (NYSE:MCD) was able to climb up among the 30 components in the Dow, moving up 0.2%. The Standard &#38; Poor 500 (S&#38;P 500) shed 1.2% to finish the day at 1,317.37 and was also below its 50-day moving average since April 19. The index was also at its lowest level since April 19th.

		<description><![CDATA[by Tony D’Altorio, Investment U Research Thursday, April 14, 2011 Just over a year ago, disgruntled shareholders were on the march at the global mobile telecom giant, Vodafone Group (Nasdaq: VOD). They were displeased at the underperformance of the company, which had built a global telecom empire under its previous CEO, Arun Sarin. However, the empire building had only brought together a collection of poorly performing assets that were saddled with too much debt. The company’s current CEO, Vittorio Colao, listened to his shareholders. Stockholders wanted a slimmed-down company with a greater focus on its operations. So Colao has been slowly dismantling the empire that Mr. Sarin built over the last few years… Vodafone Grows by Shrinking Colao took a huge step in that dismantling last week when Vodafone sold ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Chunghwa Telecom Co. Ltd. (CHT), the largest integrated telecommunications service provider of Taiwan, is gradually moving toward Mainland China for future growth. The company is all set to enter the Chinese wireless value-added services market in 2011. Chunghwa will establish two joint ventures. The first one will be with Spring House Entertainment Tech, a Taiwan-based record level and animated cartoon producer, and the second one with local Chinese partners for offering mobile value-added services. After introducing home grown 3G TDS-CDMA technologies in China, wireless value-added services became the major growth driver for the telecom operators. Chunghwa is desperately pursuing this new opportunity. The company already invested in online music platform Kkbox, Spring House Entertainment Tech, and digital map developer Kingwaytek. Chunghwa is also negotiating with China Telecom Corp. Ltd. (CHA) ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We downgrade our recommendation for Chunghwa Telecom Co. Ltd. (CHT), the largest integrated telecom service provider in Taiwan, to Underperform, ahead of the fourth quarter of 2010 financial results. The reason for the change in recommendation is the current high-level of valuation of the company. Chunghwa is currently trading at the high-end of its 52-week price range. The stock price has moved up by more than 64% in the last one year. At present, Chunghwa is trading at significantly high multiples compared with the S&#38;P 500 average and the industry average with respect to several valuation metrics. We believe at this stage, Chunghwa is overvalued and the stock price should approach the S&#38;P 500 average. Chunghwa is the market leader in Taiwan for traditional voice and dial-up services, VoIP, IPTV, ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Vodafone Group Plc (VOD), the largest revenue generating international wireless carrier, announced results for the first half of fiscal 2011 (ended September 30, 2010). The company reported adjusted earnings of 8.76 pence per share (or earnings per ADS of $1.33), up 0.5% from 8.72 pence in the year-ago period. On a GAAP basis, net profit jumped 56.5% year over year to £7.5 billion ($11.4 billion). During the first half, net profit benefited primarily from a £2.4 billion ($3.65 billion) gain on the sale of its entire 3.2% stake in China Mobile (CHL) and the resolution of certain tax-related issues, partially offset by £0.8 billion ($1.2 billion) of impairment charge on the carrier’s operations in Greece. Consolidated revenue increased 3.9% year over year to £22.6 billion ($34.4 billion) on the back ]]></description>

(AAPL) to sell its iPhone 4 and iPad in the South Korean market. SK Telecom&#8217;s major rival, KT Corp. (KT), enjoys an exclusive hold on iPhones in the South Korean markets. The iPad is not currently available in the region. If the talks between SK Telecom and Apple succeed, Koreans will have access to a second iPhone and first iPad carrier. Although Apple provides its iPhone exclusively through AT&#38;T Inc. (T) in the U.S., it is considering several carriers in international markets. The talk with SK ]]></description>

People lose there jobs in several different ways. They can be fired, laid-off, quit or retire. What the employment report does not show is the composition of that net number: how many new jobs, and how many people lost their jobs. That data is presented in the Job Opening and Labor Turnover Survey (or JOLTS), which was released today, but with a one month lag. So the data in the graph below (from http://www.calculatedriskblog.com/) is for March, not April. What that data shows is that the problem is not a large ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[China Unicom (CHU) has announced first-quarter 2010 results with net income plunging 68% year-over-year to RMB1.13 billion (US$165.7 million). This significant year-over-year decline in profitability is attributable to the high costs associated with 3G service deployments and network expansion, intense domestic competition and sustained erosion in fixed-line voice business. China Unicom contends with a highly competitive domestic wireless market. The company remains significantly challenged by the aggressive nationwide 3G service roll outs of its peers China Mobile (CHL) and China Telecom (CHA). Revenue Break-Down The second largest Chinese wireless carrier posted consolidated revenues of RMB40.4 billion (US$5.9 billion), up 6.6% year-over-year. Service revenues increased 4.6% year-over-year to RMB38.62 billion (US$5.7 billion), accounting for roughly 96% of total sales. Service revenue from the GSM mobile business increased 11.9% year-over-year to RMB18.63 ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Second-largest Chinese carrier China Unicom (CHU) appears to follow in the footsteps of its larger peer China Mobile (CHL) as the company is seeking the support of Taiwanese partners to boost its 3G business. China Mobile recently forged a deal with Taiwanese carrier Far EasTone to jointly develop and test a high-speed mobile broadband network. According to a Taiwan-based media, China Unicom has reportedly visited the largest Taiwanese telecom carrier Chunghwa Telecom (CHT) and the country’s leading wireless retailer Senao International for future collaboration opportunities. Speculation suggests that Senao may open a retail distribution unit in Mainland China with China Unicom having a stake in the entity. Chunghwa Telecom is experiencing significant subscriber growth for its mobile Internet services, thanks to the growing demand for 3G mobile broadband and smartphones ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Chunghwa Telecom Co. Ltd. (CHT), the largest integrated telecom operator in Taiwan , is conducting live trial runs for the Frequency Division Duplex (FDD) version of Long Term Evolution (LTE) networks. The aim is to develop a super-fast next-generation mobile broadband network that will act as a natural upgrade for the company’s existing WCDMA networks. Chunghwa has decided to implement LTE in Taiwan in 2011. Nokia Siemens Network, a 50-50 joint venture between Nokia Corp. (NOK) and Siemens AG (SI), is providing the LTE core network equipment and base stations for these trial runs. Chunghwa has an existing collaboration with Nokia Siemens Network to expand its 3G wireless networks of WCDMA and HSDPA. Last August, Chunghwa decided to launch HSPA+ 3G services from 2010 and selected Nokia Siemens Network to ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[China Mobile (CHL), the world’s largest wireless carrier by subscriber, has reportedly entered into an agreement with Taiwanese wireless carrier Far EasTone Telecommunications, to jointly build and test a 4G network based on the TD-LTE (Time Division Duplex Long Term Evolution) mobile broadband standard. Far EasTone is Taiwan&#8217;s third-largest mobile-phone operator by revenue. Under the agreement, the companies will cooperate to construct a 4G trial network platform, which will offer a field-test environment for TD-LTE equipment and devices supplied by Taiwan-based vendors as well as China Mobile’s “Ophone&#8221; branded handsets. This represents an important step by the Chinese wireless behemoth, which planned to acquire a 12% stake in Far EasTone in April 2009 for roughly $554 million. However, the proposed acquisition was blocked by the Taiwanese government last year. China ]]></description>

Theoretically, LTE is expected to achieve download transmission speeds of 300Mbps and offers several advantages over other wireless technologies. According to the Global mobile Suppliers Association (GSA), there are now 64 operators across 31 countries committed to LTE, compared to 31 network commitments the same time a year ago. GSA said another 24 operators are also planning trial runs of LTE. Globally, 22 LTE networks may become operational by end 2010 and this figure may go up to 39 by end 2012.

		<description><![CDATA[We have upgraded our recommendation for Vodafone (VOD) to Outperform based on the company’s healthy operating results in the last quarter and management’s upbeat guidance. Our assessment also reflects improving business trends in the carrier’s key European markets and opportunities for sustainable growth across the emerging markets. Revenue growth in the most recent quarter was fuelled by the healthy contributions from the Asia-Pacific and Middle East operations. Moreover, subscriber growth was driven by continued healthy net additions in the company’s Indian operation. Vodafone is the world’s largest revenue generating wireless carrier and is only behind China Mobile (CHL) in terms of overall subscriber count among the cellular operators. The carrier’s globally diversified operation is a natural hedge that offsets price competition and currency exchange translation risk that may arise in ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[China Unicom (CHU) has announced 2009 results with reported earnings per ADS of 59 cents matching the Zacks Consensus Estimate. However, net income plunged 73% year-over-year to RMB9.56 billion (US$1.4 billion). This significant year-over-year decline in profitability is partly due to sustained erosion in fixed-line voice revenues. Moreover, the prior year’s net profit was boosted by one-time gains from the sale of the carrier’s CDMA wireless business to rival China Telecom (CHA) as part of the restructuring of the Chinese telecom sector. Revenue Break-Down: Fixed Voice Drags Down Sales Consolidated revenues for 2009 reached RMB153.95 billion (US$22.6 billion), down 3.7% year-over-year due to weak contribution from the fixed-line voice business. Service revenues decreased 2.1% year-over-year to RMB149.59 billion (US$21.9 billion), accounting for 97% of total sales. Service revenue from the ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[China Telecom (CHA) announced 2009 results with adjusted earnings per ADS of US$2.40 missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of US$2.57. Adjusted earnings exclude amortization of upfront connection fees and impairment losses. The incumbent Chinese fixed-line operator reported an adjusted net income of RMB13.27 billion (US$1.95 billion), down 33.9% year-over-year. The drop in profit is primarily attributable to higher marketing expenses associated with the deployment of the company’s 3G wireless services and aggressive handset roll-outs. China Telecom reported a 47% year-over-year increase in SG&#38;A costs (including mobile handset subsidies). Reported net income of RMB14.42 billion (US$2.14 billion) or RMB0.18 per share (US$2.65 per ADS) represents an increase from RMB884 million (US$130 million) a year ago, which was hit by one-time impairment charges on Personal Handyphone System (PHS) assets and losses related ]]></description>

It did so, however, for the &#8220;wrong reason.&#8221; We saw a bigger decline in imports, which dropped by $3.1 billion or 1.69% to $180.0 billion, than we did in exports, which fell by $0.5 billion or 0.35%, to $142.7 billion. It is the wrong reason because both imports and exports fell. We want to see an expansion in world trade, not a contraction. With the dramatic increase in both imports and exports in China release yesterday (both up by more than 45% year over year), the relatively small declines do not mean that overall world trade is declining.

		<description><![CDATA[China Unicom (CHU), the second largest Chinese wireless carrier, is reportedly planning to launch iPhone with Wi-Fi (wireless broadband) function in mainland China. The carrier is currently working with Apple (AAPL) regarding this advancement. However, no specific timeline for the launch has been announced. This represents a major step by China Unicom, as lack of Wi-Fi support in the Chinese version of the iPhone has been a major hindrance in its wider market adoption. If the launch materializes, the company plans to compensate the current iPhone users (who lack Wi-Fi) by allowing greater use of its 3G network. China Unicom launched iPhones across 285 cities in mainland China in October 2009 under a three-year agreement. However, per the mandate by China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT), Apple and ]]></description>

Moreover, China Mobile has revealed its plans to build more than 80,000 3G base stations in 2010 to cover all Chinese regions with its 3G TDSCDMA network. The carrier exited 2009 with 5.51 million 3G subscribers and 87,000 3G base stations and currently has 100,000 base stations in aggregate.

The Spanish telecom giant expects to gradually increase its share in the Chinese company to further boost its foothold in the world’s largest mobile market. The companies concluded a $1 billion stake purchase in each other’s stock in October 2009. Per the agreement, Telefonica bought roughly 694 million shares in China Unicom while China Unicom purchased 40.7 million Telefonica shares. With the completion of this share-swap transaction, Telefonica’s stake in China Unicom increased to 8.06% from 5.38%. Telefonica plans to eventually expand its stake to 10%.

However, we are still doing better on the trade deficit front than a year ago, when the gap was $43.2 billion. Last year, though, the trade deficit was collapsing as both imports and exports were tumbling in response to the financial crisis. The trade imbalance had hit a peak of $64.9 billion in July of 2008, and it was on its way to a low of $25.8 billion in May of 2009, and it has been rebounding ever since. The Good News? The good news is that the trade deficit is increasing for the “right reason&#8221; &#8212; with imports increasing faster than imports &#8212; but both are still ]]></description>

(CHT) to Neutral following increased competition in the Taiwanese telecom market and a challenging economic environment. Chunghwa commands the majority share in the Taiwan market for traditional voice and dial-up services, VoIP, IPTV, broadband, and mobile segments. However, the Taiwanese telecom market is quickly approaching maturity and has become extremely competitive following telecom regulatory changes. Chunghwa competes in a tough environment with Taiwan Mobile Company and Far EasTone Telecommunications Co. Ltd., the two other major service providers. The market size is smaller than other regional markets, with approximately 23 million potential customers. We expect fierce competition going forward as the Chinese giant China Mobile Ltd.

The company is reportedly eliminating 5,992 jobs through an early retirement program, equating to 16% of its workforce (roughly 37,026 employees). This represents KT’s largest job cut ever. The early retirement program applies to the employees who have worked for more than 15 years and have applied for voluntary retirement. Approximately 65% of these employees are in their 50s. KT plans to fill the vacuum by expanding the recruitment of new entrants and reducing unemployment among young people. The job cut is expected to save KRW460 billion (US$393 million) annually in labor costs. However, the one-time cost for severance pay associated with the voluntary retirement program will halve KT’s operating profit for 2009 to ]]></description>

These handset models are being developed by nine vendors including industry leading cell phone manufacturers such as Motorola (MOT), Samsung, LG, Huawei and ZTE. The newly launched mobile handsets were developed under China Mobile’s “TD-SCDMA Terminal R&#38;D Incentive Fund&#8221; launched in March 2009. Out of the 11 models, 6 are positioned for the high-end customers under the &#8220;Flagship Broadband Internet Handset&#8221; project. Some of these handsets are designed for customers of China Mobile&#8217;s online application store “Mmarket.com&#8221;. The remaining 5 models, which are priced at about RMB1,000 (US$146) per set, were part of the company’s &#8220;Low Cost 3G Handset&#8221; project. These ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Long-Term Evolution (LTE), the most sought after next-generation (4G) super-fast wireless communications technology is quickly gaining momentum in the Asia regions. The 4G wireless networks are aiming to cope with substantial demand for high-speed wireless data services and mobile video. Asia, especially the south and south-east part of this continent, contains the two largest emerging economies of the world, namely, China and India. Additionally, developed nations like Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Singapore, and Philippines are also part of this subcontinent. As a result, the mobile services providers in this region often face increasing competition that forced them to upgrade their respective networks frequently. NTT DoCoMo (DCM), the largest wireless service provides in Japan is likely to become the first carrier in Asia to deploy LTE network. DoCoMo is all set ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The global economic downturn continues to weigh on the fortunes of companies in almost every industry Incorporatedluding telecommunications. Nevertheless, we see a silver lining for the telecommunication industry in this challenging environment as the valuation level now reflects remedial conditions in the economy. Depressed stock prices may make investment entry points more favorable at this juncture, should stimulus plans improve worldwide economics. The industry encompasses a lot of technology-related businesses. Besides the traditional local and long-distance wireline telephone services, telecommunications also include wireless communications, Internet services, fiber optics networks and satellites communications. According to our assessment, overall economic dynamics may shift in favor of the telecommunications industry, although at a very slow pace, primarily due to its basic nature of being a major infrastructure product for both the emerging and ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[China Mobile (CHL), the largest wireless carrier in the world, continues to deliver healthy operating results as demonstrated by strong subscriber retention in 2008. As we approach the end of 4th quarter 2009, our opinion remains firm that new competitive entities face unanticipated challenges deploying and advancing services to levels and coverage delivered by China Mobile. Accordingly, we assess that successful expansion into low-penetration rural regions of China, coupled with aggressive 3G TD-SCDMA service deployments in 2009, establish China Mobile as the dominant mobile provider, far ahead of its nearest competitors. Additionally, a strong balance sheet, strong free cash flow and sustainable dividends facilitate the company&#8217;s efforts to weather economic volatility. We maintain our Outperform rating even as we factor in potential resulting from competitive factors and a comparatively weaker ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[China Unicom (CHU), the second largest Chinese wireless carrier, has officially revealed that it has sold more than 100,000 iPhones since the device’s launch in late Oct 2009. The company had previously reported having signed only 5,000 iPhone customers in the first weekend after launch. China Unicom achieved a major milestone with the launch of Apple Inc’s (AAPL) iPhones (3G &#38; 3GS) across 285 cities in mainland China on Oct 30, 2009. The company inked a three-year agreement with Apple in Aug 2009 to distribute the popular handset in China. The reported sales number, although better than the device’s initial uptake, still remains unimpressive considering the booming Chinese mobile market (the world’s largest) with roughly 722 million subscribers. In comparison, iPhone sales had hit 270,000 units in the US in ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The two largest emerging markets of the world, China and India have become the major growth driver for Qualcomm Inc. (QCOM). Despite being the largest CDMA mobile chipset developer of the world, the company is facing reverses in its top-line growth during 2009. Ongoing global economic recession that resulted in significant reduction of demand for mobile handsets is the primary reason for this disappointing performance. At this juncture, China and India are a silver lining for Qualcomm. Explosive growth of China’s home grown 3G (TDS-CDMA) technology has enabled Qualcomm to make up its losses in the developed nations. The three Chinese giants, namely China Mobile Ltd. (CHL), China Unicom Ltd. (CHU), and China Telecom Corp. Ltd. (CHA) together serve a massive 730 million mobile customers. Nearly 10% of these are ]]></description>
