The key Shanghai Composite Index added 0.31 percent, or 6.41 points, to 2,044.93. Half-day turnover was 35 billion yuan (US$5.7 billion).

“However, the market is expected to trade in a narrow range as investors are less willing to buy and sell before the week-long Spring Festival holiday,” Hou added.
IT shares advanced. Dr.Peng Telecom & Media Group Co Ltd rose 4 percent to 15.97 yuan. Shenzhen Kingdom Technology Co Ltd surged by the daily limit of 10 percent to 24.22 yuan.
