Govt moves to shore up market

Continuing plunge pushes Beijing to inject more liquidity

China's equities market has suffered the worst three-week loss since 1992 as the government keeps rolling out measures to stabilize a seemingly unstoppable slide.

The dramatic fall, wiping out $2.8 trillion in three weeks, further extended on Friday, with the benchmark Shanghai Composite Index dropping 5.7 percent, or 225.85 points, to close at 3,686.91.
