Despite repeated CSRC warnings that stock trading is risky, Chinese investors are flocking to the equity market for quick returns, with new trading accounts soaring by 433 percent year on year in the first quarter to reach almost 8 million.
Ha Jiming, chief investment strategist for the investment management division of China at Goldman Sachs, said stocks were one of few ways left for investors to make money as the lackluster real economy provides few opportunities.

"These are the fundamentals of a sound market," he said.
