  By some measures, Chinese solar manufacturers are improving. Yesterday, Canadian Solar (NASDAQ: CSIQ &! nbsp;) reported higher-than-expected revenue, a lower loss, and a respectable gross margin of 9.7%. But by others, the market is deteriorating, like Trina Solar's (NYSE: TSL  ) first quarter, when net loss more than doubled from a year ago to $63.7 million.
