Which index fell 8.48% on July 27, 2015, during China's stock-market crash?

The Shanghai Composite fell 8.48% on July 27, 2015, during China's stock-market crash.

The Shanghai Composite tracks many stocks listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange and is a widely followed gauge of mainland Chinese equities. In mid-2015, rapid share-price gains reversed sharply after concerns about valuations, leveraged buying, economic growth, and government intervention.

The index's July 27 plunge was one of the most severe sessions in the sell-off. Turbulence continued into August, when a major devaluation of China's renminbi added to global market anxiety and contributed to international equity declines.

The Shenzhen Component is a different mainland index, while the Hang Seng Index represents Hong Kong-listed shares. Those distinctions matter when identifying the exact measure reported for a daily percentage move.
