Today is another uneasy day for global investors. The domestic market continues to be sluggish, with A-shares defending the 3000-point mark yesterday and dropping below 2900 points in a flash. Tomorrow, they will fight to defend the 2800-point mark. The market is still trapped in a spiral of pessimistic expectations and unable to break free, so caution should continue in the short term.
