They link viewers with content publishers and distributors, and monetize those interactions through advertising. Founded in 2004 in San Francisco, the company was floated on London Stock Exchange in 2007. I have already written an article about this stock, so I'm not going into greater detail. This is one of those situations, where the fundamentals and technicals are well aligned and warrant a very aggressive position. If your analysis points to a great profit potential, you have to bet big. Financials and Fundamentals

6. Hutchison China MediTech (HCM.L)
Chi-Med is the holding company of a pharmaceutical and healthcare group based primarily in China. Chi-Med is a subsidiary of Hutchison Whampoa Ltd. ("HWL"), one of the largest conglomerates based in Hong Kong. Chi-Med focuses on researching, developing, manufacturing and selling pharmaceuticals, and health oriented consumer products primarily in China. Chi-Med was established in 2000 as a wholly-owned subsidiary of HWL. It's global licensing deal with AstraZeneca on Volitinib, represents the first deal of this type to progress a China discovered targeted oncology drug towards the global market. The company earned a $20 million upfront payment with up to $120 million contingent upon the successful achievement of clinical development and later double-digit percentage royalties on net sales. The company has 5 additional drugs in development, they have turned profitable only recently and finally started generating free cash flow. A director has bought shares in October with trade value of £100k. The pharmaceutical industry in China is booming, the country represents 20% of world population but only 1.5% of the total drug market. I believe that if the company executes it's strategy well, it will offer incredible profit potential in the future. Financials and Fundamentals
