Chinese equities inched up Thursday as the newly-released January consumer price index, a main gauge to measure inflation, was lower than market expectation, sparking speculation that the central bank would delay interest rate increases.
Combined turnover shrank to 112.52 billion yuan ($16.47 billion) from 115.46 billion yuan on the previous trading day.
Losers outnumbered gainers by 540 to 311 in Shanghai and 484 to 373 in Shenzhen.
