China stocks rise at open after cuts to interest rates, reserve requirements
SHANGHAI (Aug 26): China's major stock indexes opened up on Wednesday after aggressive monetary easings announced by the central bank on Tuesday evening following a massive market slide.
The CSI300 index rose 0.7% to 3,062.57 points at 1:26 GMT, while the Shanghai Composite Index gained 0.5% to 2,980.79 points.

China's Financial Futures Exchanges announced Wednesday morning that they will raise transaction fees and margin requirements for index futures to curb speculation.
Benchmark mainland indexes gave up all the gains made from Beijing's unprecedented stock market rescue in July, in which hundreds of billions of dollars were directed into the market, and this week entered negative territory for the year-to-date.
