China's stock exchange had a bad third quarter.
Over the past three month, the country's fragile economy has shown few signs of improvement. A property slump continues to bite and the Government is reluctant to spend large amounts to turn the situation around. This sparked a drop in China's stocks.
Markets are closed for the long holiday of Monday, October 9; this means that it has ended its third quarter one day earlier than other markets around the world.
