These symptoms are combined with the system of partition of shares. Many endogenous variables of speculations, including the unreasonable structure of share equity,the circulating share market dominated by scattered stockholders, and scarcity of indispensable institutional investors, lead to the unguaranteed interest of investors. With this tendency uncontrolled, the function of resource allocation of stock market will die out, undoubtedly imperilling the future of the whole stock market of China.Creating requirements for and fostering institutional investors are not only the necessary step to internationalization of Chinese stock market, but also the key to every problems existed.
