Today, Tuesday, December 1, 2009, I bought CGA, for both client and my personal accounts.

China Green Agriculture, Inc., through its subsidiaries, researches, develops, manufactures, and distributes humic acid based compound fertilizers in China. The company sells approximately 130 fertilizer products.

Here's why I bought this stock:

+ Technical: After a major heavy volume breakout back on November 18, the stock is making a follow-through move up today on heavy volume.

+ Excellent recent sales growth. Here are the quarterly year-to-year sales growth rates from the last four quarters, in chronological order: +86%, +99%, +45%, and, most recently, for the quarter ended Sep 30, +27% to $11.3 million.

+ Excellent recent earnings-per-share growth. Here are the quarterly EPS figures for the last eight quarters:

Dec 08 vs Dec 07: 14c vs  6c
Mar 09 vs Mar 08: 21c vs  9c
Jun 09 vs Jun 08: 24c vs  7c
Sep 09 vs Sep 08: 24c vs 19c

+ Strong and rising earnings-per-share estimates: According to recent data from First Call, the consensus earnings estimate for FY 10 is 91c, revised upward from 83c 90 days ago (and up from FY 09 actual earnings of 78c); and the consensus estimate for FY 11 is $1.51, revised upward from $1.33 90 days ago.

+ Valuation: At 11 times next year's estimated earnings and a projected 5-year annualized earnings growth rate of 24%, the stock is very attractively priced.

+ History of earnings surprises: This company has reported earnings-per-share at least 3c above estimates in each of the past four quarters. Most recently, for the quarter ended Sep 30, they "beat the Street" by 4c.

+ The company's industry group ("Chemicals - Fertilizers") is ranked #168 for relative strength out of 197 industry groups tracked by Investor's Business Daily. This ranking changes daily, and it has been generally rising over recent weeks and months.

+ The stock's 200-day moving average is rising, indicating a long-term uptrend.
