China Evergrande shares and bonds slide amid debt deadline fears

Country's largest developer said to seek state help for restructuring plan

S&P on Friday said it had changed its outlook on the company's rating to negative, citing increasing liquidity pressure on the company over the next six months and likely weaker profit margins.
