China Stocks Move Between Gains, Losses; China Life Falls

China’s stocks fell for a third day, the longest losing streak in almost two months, on concern a global slowdown will hurt earnings.

Jiangxi Copper Co. paced losses by raw materials producers after commodity prices slid the most this year. China Life Insurance Co. slipped to a two-month low after the nation’s biggest insurer said profit may have fallen as much as 50 percent in 2011. China Eastern Airlines Corp., the nation’s second-largest carrier, sank 0.7 percent after Chairman Liu Shaoyong said he expects a “big” drop in travel-demand growth.
