Shareholders look at computer screens on April 28, 2011, at a stock exchange in Buyang, Anhui province. China's main stock index fell for the fifth day in a row on Thursday amid vague market talks of a policy change ahead of a long weekend, pushing down property and cement issues.

The benchmark Shanghai Composite Index fell 0.5 percent to 2,887 points, breaking through the 2,900 point to a two-month low. And 31 stock prices dropped by 10 percent, the daily limit, on April 28, 2011. [Photo/Xinhua]
