Chinese shares sank 6.31 percent to close at 1,902 points today, in
reaction to falls on Wall Street and other regional markets.
The benchmark
Shanghai Composite Index, which covers both A and B shares, tumbled 6.31 percent
to 1,902 points. The Shenzhen Component Index lost 7.22 percent to 6,293
points.
The plunge was because of profit taking from rebounds on previous
trading days, analysts said.
