　　在美国指数供应商MSCI(摩根士丹利明晟指数)暂不将在华上市的股票列入关键基准指数后，中国大陆股市周三低收。

　　Even though MSCI said the decision around China-listed shares would remain on its 2016 review list, the delay shows that global asset managers still have reservations about Beijing's willingness to fully open up its capital markets, according to analysts.

　　分析家称，尽管MSCI表示将在2016年重新考虑是否纳入A股的决定，但此次搁置表现出全球资产管理者们仍然对中国是否愿意完全开放资本市场持保留态度。
