ZTE shares hover at over three-year low after FBI probe report Jul 13th 2012, 01:52 HONG KONG | Thu Jul 12, 2012 9:52pm EDT HONG KONG (Reuters) - Shares of ZTE Corp 000063.SZ(0763.HK), the world's No.5 telecommunications equipment maker, hovered at lowest in more than three years on Friday after a report said the U.S. Federal Investigation Bureau was investigating its sale of banned U.S. computer equipment to Iran. ZTE's Hong Kong-listed shares traded roughly flat at the open. Its shares have been trading at lows not seen since about March 2009. The FBI has opened a criminal investigation into ZTE Corp over the Chinese company's sale of banned U.S. computer equipment to Iran and its alleged subsequent attempts to cover it up and obstruct a Department of Commerce probe, the Smoking Gun website said in a report seen by Reuters on Thursday. The federal investigation stems from a Reuters report in March that Shenzhen, China-based ZTE, a telecommunications equipment maker, had sold Iran's largest telecoms company a powerful surveillance system capable of monitoring landline, mobile and Internet communications, according to interviews and contract documents.
