SHANGHAI stocks edged down this morning on the news that China is making plans to deal with Greece's possible exit from the eurozone, raising concern Europe's debt crisis may deepen the nation's economic slowdown.
The benchmark Shanghai Composite Index fell 0.08 percent, or 1.87 points to 2,306.68 points. Turnover stood at 36.8 billion yuan (US$5.8 billion) in the morning session.
The Chinese government has convened relevant authorities to discuss plans in responding to Greece's possible exit from the single currency union, Reuters reported yesterday, citing three unnamed sources familiar with the matter.
The plans include measures to keep the stability of the yuan, increase supervision on cross-border capital flow and further introduce policies to maintain domestic economic growth, a source said.
