Since late October 2021, a number of new shares on the scientific innovation board and gem have broken on the first day of listing. Northeast Securities Co.Ltd(000686) according to the recent research report, the main reason for the breaking of A-Shares is that the change of inquiry rules has increased the issuance price. At the same time, the similar stagflation environment and the weakening of market sentiment have formed a catalytic effect on the breaking.
