Chinese shares fell Tuesday to a seven-week low, led by real estate stocks amid fears the government will take steps to slow other sectors of the economy after vowing to control rising property prices. The benchmark Shanghai Composite Index dropped by 72.45 points, or 2.3 percent, to close at 3,050.52, the lowest since Oct 30.
