Annual trading value of A-shares on Shanghai Stock Exchange China 2012-2022
In 2022, the trading value on the Shanghai Stock Exchange was 84 trillion Chinese yuan. Since 2016, the annual turnover fluctuated between 40 and 103 trillion yuan. The relatively low trading value of 2018 reflected the bad performance of the Chinese stock market in that year as indexes in Shanghai and Shenzhen lost more than 24 percent. It was the worst performance of the decade and the result of the rising tensions between the United States and China. The high trading value of 2015, on the other hand, was caused by heavy stock market turbulence after a market bubble popped around June. Within a couple of weeks, the SSE fell by 30 percent and over 1,400 companies applied for a trading halt.
