SHANGHAI'S key stock index continued to rise, closing 3 percent higher yesterday and staying above 1,900 points with blue chips and the financial sector leading the gains.
The benchmark Shanghai Composite Index rose 56.43 points to close at 1,937.14. Turnover was 69 billion yuan (US$10.1 billion), up from Monday's 46.1 billion yuan. A total of 863 shares rose and 33 remained unchanged. Only 12 fell.
"The index is not affected by the weak performance of the United States stock market and Hong Kong's market and turnover continues to expand," according to a research note by GF Securities. "We think the (Shanghai) index may go through slight fluctuations after two days of gains in the new year and investors will remain cautious."
