I bailed out of llen with a much smaller profit than i had before greenberg pointed out past securities violations by management on strategy sesssion. the final straw was the kabani certification letter attached to the fiscal '09 financial statements which contained enough cautionary comments to make me realize that the numbers from china could be anything and the auditors would be off the hook.
that coupled with principals less than sterling reputation was enough to get me scurrying for cover. The company could turn out to be great or a fraud I have no idea and here I choose not to stick around. Prior to selling I called investor relations but a
couple of days later and they have not returned my call about the accounting.

Just one more case where I failed to do enough due dilligence. I didnt read the accountants letter carefully and i didnt google the major players in the company. Fortunately it didnt cost me this time.

I thought this article was not bad either:

thestreet.com

I wonder if Chinese reverse merger small caps are now hugely oversold by indiscriminate short allegations of fraud and if a basket of them might be a good play going forward. Unfortunately, there is no proxy fund AFAIK, so one would have to construct such basket themselves.

Disclosure: I still hold a number of Chinese reverse merger small caps.
