Among them, natural resource mergers and acquisitions accounted for 31% of total transactions. Financial institutions accounted for more than 20% of related transactions.　　Technology, media, telecommunications related transactions accounted for 11%.　　Guohong, head of mergers and acquisitions at JPMorgan's Greater China region, said mergers and acquisitions in the Asia-Pacific region, especially in China, are expected to be more active in the second half of 2009.

Mergers and acquisitions are a reflection of confidence in the economy and the stock market, and if confidence is strong, companies will go out, or make larger and very strategic deals.　　If the economy is not good or the stock price is low or the stock price is weak, the general business and policymakers will sweep the snow from the front and rarely make large acquisitions.
