Hong Kong stocks finish slightly lower
Hong Kong stocks finished with a loss on Tuesday, in line with a sell-off across most of Asia and Wall Street, as strong US economic data raised bets on the Federal Reserve pushing interest rates higher than expected. The Hang Seng Index slipped 0.4 percent, or 77 points, to 19,441. The Shanghai Composite Index was flat, inching up 0.7 points to 3,212, while the Shenzhen Composite Index added 0.3 percent, or 5 points, to 2,067. (AFP)
