China Com Inc

China.com, which went public last month amid criticism that its name was far catchier than its track record, said an inadvertent stock sale helped the Internet portal generate a $1.9-million second-quarter profit despite a loss from its operations. China.com said it pocketed $5.1 million when it bought back some shares in 24/7 Media Inc. that its brokers had inadvertently sold, giving it a net profit of $1.9 million for the quarter. But its operating loss widened to $3.
