Shanghai shares suffered their second largest daily fall this year, as worries about margin trading put an abrupt halt to the market’s 39% year-to-date rally, while an interest-rate cut in Australia failed to lift the market. The Shanghai Composite closed down 4% today to 4298.71, its biggest daily percentage loss since Jan. 19, when the market fell 7.7% on similar fears that Beijing was restricting use of borrowed money by retail investors to buy stocks. |
