Mainland China stock market ended down in volatile trade on Wednesday, 27 January 2016, extending selling streak, amid lingering concern about capital outflows and bearish equity prediction from market experts. Risk sentiments dented further on deepening economic growth woes after declines in industrial profits for December 2015. The Shanghai Composite Index ended down 0.5%, or 13.65 points, at 2736.13, after tumbling as much as 4.1% earlier in the session. That followed the index's worst day on Tuesday since the suspension of the circuit breaker rule in early January, closing down 6.4%, hitting its lowest level since December 2014. The Shenzhen Composite dropped 0.83%, or 14.27 points, to 1,700.153 after trading down as much as 5.62% earlier in the session. The CSI 300 Index, measuring exchanges in Shanghai and Shenzhen, shed 10.16 points, or 0.35%, to 2839.29.
