It offers subscription-based services based on a single information platform that integrates data and information from various sources with features and functions, such as data and information search, retrieval, delivery, storage, and analysis.
* According to Motley Fool, when 2007 wraps up, China Finance Online will be one of three stocks that will be standing atop the mountain as the equity that offered the year's best returns. China Finance is up 747%, respectively, year to date. Shares of JRJC gained $1.16 or 3.08% to $38.84 Tuesday.

This follows after shareholder lawsuits were filed in the U.S. against LDK Solar, which has been scrambling to protect its reputation since a former employee last month accused the Chinese solar-power company of accounting fraud. The lawsuits seek class-action status on behalf of investors who bought LDK's American depositary receipts during the company's initial public offering on the New York Stock Exchange earlier this year. Shares of LDK rose Tuesday by 2 cents or 0.05% to $43.30.
