滬深300指數(CSI 300)包含了滬深兩市交易的300支主要A股,其於2016年交易首日下跌7%，根據新推行的市場熔斷機制，意味着當日股市交易已結束。

去年12月初，中國有關部門宣佈將於今年1月1日起實施股市熔斷機制，以限制股市再出現去年6月夏季大拋售時的波動。當股票、期權和期貨下跌逾5%，將觸發熔斷機制，交易將暫停15分鐘。今天是熔斷機制啓用的第一天，下午剛一開盤，於當地時間下午1:14分，A股市場就突破了第一道閾值，觸發停盤15分鐘。當交易恢復後，5分鐘內大盤繼續下跌了2%，二度觸發熔斷機制。
But the declines continued, and now it’s all over, red rover.
