Tiananmen Date Match Bars Searches for China Stock Index - Bloomberg

Hahaha. The great firewall is such a stupid anachronistic idea....
The benchmark Shanghai Composite Index dropped by 64.89 (SHCOMP) points yesterday, matching the date on which Chinese authorities crushed student-led protests on June 4, 1989. Queries for “Shanghai Composite” on Sina Corp.’s Twitter-like Weibo service returned a message that said results can’t be displayed “in accordance with relevant laws, regulations and policies.”
The market was down 64.89 in the 13th anniversary of the Tiananmin massacre and the Chinese block references to the Shanghai index on June 4 because the decline looks like the date. God is great and has such a sense of humor!
