Today’s biggest winner was Hong Kong based textiles factory operator Merchant House (ASX:MHI).

The stock nearly tripled in early trade after announcing it was selling its textiles factory in China for US$20 million ($25.8 million) – but trading was halted half way into the trading day pending a clarification about the announcement.

US focused copper explorer Eagle Mountain Mining (ASX:EM2) rose with its latest exploration results, which included rock samples grading 10.6 per cent copper and 29 grams per tonne gold.
