Locked-up shares worth about 130.6 billion yuan (around 19.5 billion U.S. dollars) will become eligible for trade on the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock exchanges in the coming week.
About 3.89 billion shares from 35 companies will become tradable on the exchanges from Oct. 31 to Nov. 4, according to RoyalFlush Information, a financial information service provider.
Guangdong Wen's Foodstuff Group Co. will see the unlocking of 3.07 billion shares worth nearly 111.9 billion yuan, the largest group of locked-up shares to hit the market.
