Other Chinese shipping firms also hit as US considers port fees of up to $1.34 million
Shares of mainboard-listed Yangzijiang Shipbuilding tumbled for a second straight day after the United States Trade Representative's (USTR) office proposed imposing a fee on Chinese-built vessels entering US ports.
The stock closed down 9.7 per cent, or 29 cents, to $2.70 on Feb 25, with a hefty 79.7 million shares traded. A day earlier, the counter slumped 7.1 per cent.
Other Chinese shipbuilders and shipping companies were also hit. Hong Kong-listed Cosco Shipping Holdings dropped 1.4 per cent, extending a 4.6 per cent fall a day earlier, while Orient Overseas (International) declined 0.8 per cent, after a 3 per cent loss the previous day.
The USTR in a notice published on Feb 21 laid out its proposed fees and other shipping restrictions on Chinese vessels.
