Both American and Chinese manufacturers appeared to be affected by the sell-off, which came amid the second-straight day of losses for the Dow, S&P, and Nasdaq. It also comes after news last night that a bankruptcy trustee for Energy Conversion Devices, Inc. would be suing three Chinese panel makers, Trina Solar, Ltd. ( TSL ), Yingli Green Energy, and SunTech Power Holdings ( STP ). The lawsuit alleges that the three companies conspired to export more than 95 percent of their product in a price-dumping scheme that resulted in the bankruptcy of Energy Conversion Devices. Trustee John Madden, who filed the suit, is seeking the equivalent of Energy Conversion's book value, some $950 million.
