More great news coming out of the Chinese small and mid-cap space.  This via ChinaSecurities.com

Congratulations to our friends over at ROTH Capital on completing yet another great transaction.  I’ve seen a steadily increasing frequency of these announcements coming out of ROTH, which tells me that things are getting much better.  Adding to this, a prominent attorney recently told me that M&A and Financing work has significantly increased over the last 3 months.

With respect to this deal, Harbin Electric sounds like yet another excellent Chinese company.  You can read the details below but  here is the excerpt I liked:

Through its U.S. and China-based subsidiaries, the Company operates three manufacturing facilities in China located in Harbin, Weihai, and Shanghai with a total of approximately 1,800 employees.
