$CAAS On the last chart I only posted the three year triangle but this pattern actually goes back six years for those not watching. Today for the first time we peaked above this wedge and it held. This should hopefully catch the attention of some technical traders. The measured move for this is just stupid on the log scale and projects to $50+. Fundamentals already more than speak for themselves.

$CAAS just a reminder. We had $1.42 EPS this past year, trading well under net cash, growth well into double digits and book value over $13 per share.

$CAAS Just under two years ago, my largest position was China engine maker CYD, which I held for many of the same reasons I now hold CAAS. I had a healthy seven figures tied up as dead money for a while after loading CYD around $7.5 to 8. I posted all my major buys online in real time and, at that point, I was basically the only person posting on the CYD board. Most investors had completely given up on the stock, despite the obvious value. I was looking through my old notes today and noticed that, about a year ago, I posted a very similar wedge pattern on CYD, shown below. Fingers crossed that CAAS eventually plays out the same way. My biggest mistake was selling CYD in the $20S. I do not plan to make that same mistake twice. For those who did not follow CYD, it eventually hit $58 just over a year after I posted this chart - 8 bagger from the point where most investors had given up, despite the company trading at a very low P/E, holding massive cash, and still showing growth.

$CAAS So the major reason this is so cheap is because of a lack of capital returns. In about 2 months there will almost definately be a capital return announcement. Yet the stock has barely reacted.

$CAAS This is pretty insane to me. Trading at .75 net cash and 3.1PE while the business is growing globally, higher margin products are becoming larger percentage of sales and management has stated buybacks will be recommended to the board. I could maybe understand this valuation for a company with stagnant revenue, but will most likely see revenue increase another 10-20% this year. They aren’t just a China growth story. They are taking market share in Europe, North America and South America. Oh, not to mention that book value is currently $13.30 and will most likely be around $15 be year end.

$CAAS time for this climbed the ladder to high 5s or low 6s. I believe this was catch some eyes and we could see push higher with a catalyst (buyback/div announcement). If they actually set a decent buyback ceiling ($6-7) and execute it…I think we push toward book value within a year.

$CAAS For me, the most important takeaway from this release by far is the jump in gross margin to 23.1%, up from 15.6% in Q4 2024. That is a massive shift even from the past two quarters. It likely reflects the company’s move into higher margin tech segments, which tend to scale more efficiently than traditional areas. My sense is that this part of the story is being overlooked. Most attention seems focused on the $810 million growth figure, but the margin expansion is the far more meaningful signal.

$CAAS Historically, this group has tended to underestimate its projections. Last year, it forecast $700.0 million in revenue for 2025 but ultimately delivered $765.7 million. For 2026, it is projecting $810 million. Given a stated target of $2.9 billion in sales by 2030 and their large expansion out of China, new partnerships and new EV lines I will bet we easily see 900+ million for 2026. That said, at current margins and cost structure, just the $810 million in revenue would translate to roughly $70 million in net earnings, implying a P/E of about 1.9. This is with the stock trading at 29% of book value and 50% cash. I just see this as a waiting game at this point and looking for that a double+ down the road. The biggest issue right now is no coverage and nobody knows this story. If they did this would be $10+ right now.
