Dr. Alan Li, General Manager of Yangzhou Longyao commented, “The order was placed with AIXTRON as they will be continuing to help with our forthcoming capacity increase. In only a couple of years we have seen great acceptance for our range of HB GaN LED epiwafer products, so now we quickly have to ramp up more production in order to meet demand. We will surely have one of the largest and most capable GaN high brightness LED capacity facilities in China when these new tools are up and running.”

Shares of AIXG are up fractionally with the stock closing in on significant support in the 23 -25 area.  This is a mighty compelling area to scale in to a long term position in a top LED lighting play, but I’m waiting a bit longer to see if it can get closer to $23 level.
