SHANGHAI'S key stock index advanced more than 3 percent yesterday in the last trading day of the week, led by strong performances in the financial and property sectors.
The benchmark Shanghai Composite Index rose 3.23 percent to close at 2,320.79, a four-month high. Turnover was 164.5 billion yuan (US$24.1 billion).
The index gained a total of 6.4 percent from a week earlier and the combined weekly turnover reached a 12-month high to 758.1 billion yuan.
Banks recovered from Thursday's loss. Industrial & Commercial Bank of China added 2.06 percent to 3.97 yuan. China Construction Bank was up 2.32 percent to 4.41 yuan. Bank of China rose 3.06 percent to 3.37 yuan. Bank of Communications edged up 1.87 percent to 6 yuan.
"It is a fairly good opportunity for investors since the index will not fluctuate in a very wide range as rising turnover suggest institutional investors are also more confident than before," Wan Bing, a GF Securities analyst, said.
