HK shares fall despite US tech shares rally
Hong Kong stocks opened lower on Tuesday as an overnight rally in US tech shares failed to offset concerns about China's property sector and the wider economy. The Hang Seng Index slipped 0.93 percent to 18,599. The Shanghai Composite Index inched up 0.07 percent to 3,180.56, while the Shenzhen Composite Index on China's second exchange added 0.03 percent to 2,000.
