Mainland China stock market closed softer on Wednesday, 06 August 2014, as selling was kicked off on rising geopolitical tensions after warning from a Polish official about the potential for Russia to invade Ukraine. Meanwhile, downbeat reading of China's services industries also weighed down investor sentiment. The benchmark Shanghai Composite lost 0.11%, or 2.48 points, to close at 2217.46. Turnover decreased to 140.36 billion yuan from yesterday's 141.47 billion yuan.
