Shanghai shares drop after hike in banks' reserve

The benchmark Shanghai Composite Index edged down 0.15 percent, or 4.2 points, to close at 2,884.4 points. Turnover rose to 165.3 billion yuan (US$24.9 billion) from last Friday's 155.8 billion yuan.
The Shenzhen Composite Index, which tracks the smaller domestic market in southern China, was up 1.2 percent to 1,313.6 points.
The central bank announced last Friday that reserve requirement ratio for banks will be raised 0.5 percentage points next Monday, the second raise in a month.
