▍原文

Investors were left in the dark after troubled property giant Evergrande missed a deadline for a $83.5m (£61m) interest payment.

The Chinese firm is yet to make an announcement regarding the payment, which was due on Thursday. Earlier in the week, the company said it had struck a deal over another interest payment worth $35.9m.

Global markets have been rocked by concerns over the firm's ability to support its more than $300bn of debts.
