Dân Tàu mất niềm tin vào nhà cầm quyền Tàu Cộng:

Chinese investors were disappointed when the government’s initial measures failed to work, eliciting a loss of confidence in its ability to steer the economy and markets smoothly. Many were also resentful after they followed the advice of the Communist Party’s mouthpiece People’s Daily to buy shares when the Shanghai Composite surpassed 4,000 and then watched it fall. Regulators may be less willing to push forward much-needed reforms such as new initial public offerings (IPO) regulations, for fear that easier IPO rules may mean more supply which could derail the fragile market.
