Erstens, wenn Du Aktionär seit erster Stunde bist, verstehe ich Deine Zweifel nicht, warum bist Du sonst solange drinn ? Aber unwichtig, folgendes:
Lassen wir die Gewinnmitnahmen von gestern mal ganz ausser Acht, das war ohnehin abzusehen und wird in den kommenden Wochen häufiger passieren. Endlich, denn der Kurs ist in Bewegung geraten und wird auch seinen Weg fortsetzen. Ich habe noch einmal alles durchsucht, um ganz sicher zu gehen.
Meine Recherchen haben folgendes ergeben:
So ihr lieben, wenn ihr die beiden Links mal anklickt, die HRCT-Spezifischen Infos dort durchlest und dies auch dann mit dem Bericht zu Myweb in Sachen „Broadband in China“ vergleicht, dann wißt ihr, daß sich Hartcourt in diesm Jahr zu einer Hammer-Aktie hochgearbeitet hat. Der letzte Auslöser dürfte die Internetkonferenz am 21.9. sein, in der Allan Phan die neue Firmenstruktur bekanntgibt. Ein Kursziel zwischen 40 und 50 Euro innerhalb der nächsten 6 Monate ist somit programmiert.

06Sep2000 USA: MYWEB INC COM - Chinese Internet Goes Broadband.
New York, New York, Sep. 06, 2000 (Market News Publishing via COMTEX) - The Chinese Internet market continues to develop by leaps and bounds. The number of China`s Internet users has doubled every six months for the past three years. By 2005, over 200 million Chinese are expected to be online. The demand for high-speed Internet access will grow as well, as both the corporate China and high-end residential users start demanding increased speed.
To-day, one of the leading communications hubs in Asia Pacific`s emerging Internet markets, San Francisco-based MyWeb Inc.com (AMEX: MWB), announced that it has begun providing broadband Internet access for China`s residential users. Through its agreement with Guanghuan System Integration Co., MyWeb will supply broadband set-top boxes to Donghuan Plaza, marking its official entrance to the Chinese residential broadband market.
"We believe that set-top based broadband Internet access is the fastest way to penetrate the Chinese marketplace. The majority of the country`s Internet hungry population surf the net from home, but can not afford to buy PCs, which are still far too expensive. However, almost all families in major Chinese cities have a TV-set. As a matter of fact, there are over 300 million TV sets in China. MyWeb gives them the opportunity to buy - or even lease - one of our set-top boxes and enjoy Internet access with just a low monthly payment," says Nin Contreras, CEO of MyWeb Inc.com.
According to Contreras, many in China foresee extremely high growth potential in the broadband market over the next few years as more and more people realize the benefits of high speed access at lower prices. This is evident in the fact that systems integrators have already begun installing LANs in Chinese cities even before they are generating revenues.
Just like in the United States, the supply will drive adoption in China. According to a study published by Forrester Research last Friday, U.S. broadband adoption has been highest in cities served by broadband leaders Pacific Bell (NYSE: SBC), Cox Communications (NYSE: COX), Broadwing (NYSE: BRW) and MediaOne (NYSE: UMX), (NYSE: XVF). MyWeb hopes to position itself in China much the same way these broadband pioneers have in America.
"We believe the same type of growth will take place in China, making it potentially the largest broadband market in the world. Our broadband set-top boxes enable users to surf the Internet at speeds ranging from 2M BPS up to 10M BPS, dozens of times faster than through a traditional dial-up connection. However, residential customers will actually save money. Since accessing the Internet takes place through their cable-TV connection, Chinese consumers can avoid paying the huge fees that telecommunications companies usually charge for dial-up access," adds Contreras.
Local governments are beginning to recognize the opportunities as well. For example, Shanghai`s municipal government is committed to installing broadband cables into four million homes and Beijing is currently in the process of bringing broadband to over two million households. That`s why we are taking such a proactively stance, wanting to be first-to-market and establishing MyWeb as a leader in the residential broadband Internet access market," explains Contreras.
In many ways, MyWeb is in a similar situation in China as Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) is with its new MSN Explorer in the U.S. In the U.S., America Online has become the market leader for dial-up Internet access, and it is generally believed to be too late and too expensive for Microsoft to lure large numbers of AOL users into switching their accounts to MSN. However, according to The Forrester Brief, issued on Friday, the real battleground will be on the broadband front. Similarly, MyWeb doesn`t want to compete with government telecoms in the Internet Service Provider market. Instead, by providing a cost-effective way to access the net, it aims at grabbing a significant market share in higher-margin markets.
And, just like MSN Explorer will be a blend of Internet Explorer, MSN and Web content and Internet access, MyWeb offers high-speed Internet access through its MyWeb-branded set-top boxes and then directs customers instantly to its content rich communications hub.
In addition, MyWeb`s hub can be customized and localized to provide both off-line and online services for business and residential customers. For example, busy executives can access various business applications through MyWeb`s TV-based Internet access. Residential users, in turn, enjoy a wide variety of local services from car maintenance or health care services to apartment locators or dating services.
