Stock Market Predictions

(Global Markets) - Harbin Electric (HRBN.O) said a research report that pulled its shares down by more than 50 percent on Thursday, was factually incorrect.

A Citron Research report had raised concerns about a $750 million go-private offer by Harbin CEO Tianfu Yang.

The CEO and the company reserve the right to bring legal actions against Citron Research for these erroneous allegations, Harbin said in a statement.

Harbin could not be immediately reached for comment.

Harbin's shares were up 17 percent in pre-market trade on Friday. They closed at $6.9 on Thursday on Nasdaq.
