Hong Kong stocks finish lower
Hong Kong shares closed with another loss on Tuesday as investors failed to maintain strong early momentum as worries over the Chinese economic outlook trumped optimism for US interest rate cuts. The Hang Seng Index dipped 0.21 percent, or 34.43 points, to 16,190.02. The Shanghai Composite Index added 0.20 percent, or 5.71 points, to 2,893.25, and the Shenzhen Composite Index on China's second exchange edged up 0.34 percent, or 5.95 points, to 1,746.03. (AFP)
