Chinese stocks gained in volatile trading after the government suspended a controversial circuit breaker system and the central bank moved to stabilize the yuan with its reference rate

So the chinese government suspends trading when their market drops but they don't do the same when it's going up. It seems like market manipulation is the norm.

That's communism for you. Complete and utter cluelesness when it comes to economics. They think they can control the stock market the same way they control every other facet of Chinese society

It was not invented by China "On the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE), one type of trading curb is referred to as a "circuit breaker." These limits were put in place after Black Monday in order to reduce market volatility and massive panic sell-offs, giving traders time to reconsider their transactions"

Not talking about circuit breakers. Circuit breakers make perfect sense. Talking about how China constantly tries to control and manipulate their stock market and economy in general.

US Payrolls ..
The 292,000 gain exceeded the highest forecast in a Bloomberg survey and followed a 252,000 increase in November that was stronger than previously estimated, a Labor Department report showed Friday. The median forecast in a Bloomberg survey called for a 200,000 advance. The jobless rate held at 5 percent, and wage growth rose less than forecast from a year earlier.
