Shanghai, Shenzhen Margin Balances Rise 2.064 Billion Yuan Combined

The divergence is the story: leverage expanded on the Shanghai exchange while Shenzhen saw a net reduction, so the combined gain masks offsetting moves rather than a broad build-up. That split suggests the marginal risk appetite is concentrated in Shanghai-listed names, which matters for anyone tracking where leveraged positioning is accumulating. Whether the two exchanges continue to move in opposite directions is the open question worth watching.
