The approach of China New Year has slowed down business in most Shanghai markets. The buying' of stock lote during the past week was at a low ebb, because, owing to uncertain political conditions In the North, dealers were hesitant in making commitments.
The reason why investors' and operaters refuse to enter the market is the lack of a rising profit curva, although admitting the financial strength of major corporations. Not until actual earnings begin to mount will these groups enter the market.
