Mainland China share market finished session lower on Wednesday, 10 August 2022, after weaker than expected inflation data and lingering concerns over heightened Sino-U.S. tensions over Taiwan. At close of trade, the benchmark Shanghai Composite Index declined 0.54%, or 17.41 points, to 3,230.02. The Shenzhen Composite Index, which tracks stocks on Chinas second exchange, dropped 0.35%, or 7.66 points, to 2,180.83. The blue-chip CSI300 index was down 1.12%, or 46.55 points, to 4,109.74. Data on Wednesday showed Chinas factory-gate inflation eased to a 17-month low in July while consumer prices picked up pace, but both figures came in lower than market expectations, adding to market worries that domestic activity remained subdued. The consumer price index rose an annual 2.7% in the month, up from a 2.5% increase in June, while producer price inflation slowed to 4.2% from 6.1% in June, data showed earlier in the day.
