TREE NEWS reports: The ChiNext Index fell 2.77% by the midday close on October 22, while the Shanghai Composite dropped 0.89% and the Shenzhen Component lost 1.78%. Robot-concept stocks moved against the trend, with Daye Co. hitting a fifth straight limit-up, while computing hardware names slid and New Easyway fell nearly 10%. More than 4,000 stocks declined across the three exchanges, with morning turnover at 928 billion yuan.
China’s ChiNext falls 2.77% at midday as robot stocks buck the trend
The divergence is the story: a broad selloff across more than 4,000 decliners, yet robot-concept names like Daye Co. are still locking limit-up, suggesting speculative capital is concentrating in a narrow theme rather than rotating out of equities. The weakness in computing hardware, with New Easyway down nearly 10%, points to profit-taking in the very sectors that have led. Whether that concentration holds or unwinds alongside the broader index is the open question, and the turnover level is worth watching as a gauge of conviction.
