One of China's most prominent and outspoken market analysts has quietly left the state-owned brokerage he was employed at, days after his Chinese social media accounts were suspended, according to a Reuters report.

The Hong Kong-based Hong Hao was the managing director and head of research at Bocom International Holdings, the securities unit of the government-owned Bank of Communications Company.
