TREE NEWS reports: The Shanghai Composite closed at 3,648.30 on Thursday, down 1.33%, as Chinese equities sold off across the board. The tech-heavy ChiNext Index dropped 3.41% to 2,548.15 and the STAR 50 fell 4.81% to 1,252.28, while the Shenzhen Component lost 2.50% to 11,245.73. The CSI 300 declined 1.32% to 4,049.55.
China A-shares Close Lower; Shanghai Composite Falls 1.33%
The dispersion within the selloff is the real story: the growth-heavy ChiNext and STAR 50 fell far harder than the broad CSI 300, pointing to a concentrated retreat from tech and small-cap exposure rather than uniform risk-off. That matters for anyone tracking China's equity risk appetite, since these indices carry the heaviest sentiment beta. Whether the underperformance of STAR 50 and ChiNext persists or mean-reverts is the open question, and it will signal whether this is positioning-driven rotation or a broader de-risking.
