They played a crucial part in temporarily inflating the market capitalization of dot-coms such as Worldcom, energy traders such as Enron and Dynegy, fiber optics networkers such as Qwest and Global Crossing, digital communication companies such as AOL and WebEx, and computer hardware manufacturers such as Sun and Cisco.
- Round-tripping is clearly documented in WebEx's annual reports. See e.g. its 2003 report [1], acknowledging on p. 5 that 11% of its revenue comes from distribution partners that admittedly include portals. These portals account for a substantial fraction of WebEx's advertising costs documented on p. 50. WebEx expressly admits its round-tripping arrangement with "a Chinese reseller" on p. 17. In view of the company's history, the details of the loan arrangement appear to signal self-dealing by its Chinese-connected executives. Please see Sun's annual reports for similar corroboration.
