original title is "Evergrande teeters on edge of default as $148 mln payment falls due". not exactly "defaults"

This post was in direct response to: http://dmsa-agentur.de/download/20211110_DMSA_EVG_PM_en.pdf . I just thought the reuters article contained more relevant information.

Edit: that link seems to justify the title but it doesn’t fit the main article.

Seriously misleading title though. A default is a well-defined event. “Defaults” implies that it has happened. “Teetering” is something else. Needs fixing.

> Exactly what time the grace period expires on Wednesday is unclear, but the two sources with knowledge of the matter said some bondholders had not been paid by the end of the Asian business day.

It's ambiguous, but the title is a fair conclusion.

"Evergrande officially defaulted - DMSA is preparing bankruptcy proceedings against Evergrande Group", see: http://dmsa-agentur.de/download/20211110_DMSA_EVG_PM_en.pdf . Will fix the title though if more people view it as misleading.
