China International Capital Corp said in a report that a price bidding mechanism may be introduced and that will help electricity companies save costs.

Meanwhile, Shenyin and Wanguo Securities saw the rally as a technical rebound in the wake of continuous declines and said that high hopes for economic reforms also drove the benchmark index higher.
