Hong Kong stocks opened on the back foot on Friday morning following a retreat on Wall Street, with tech firms taking a hit from worries over the prospect of more US interest rate hikes. The Hang Seng Index fell 0.33 percent to 20,330. The Shanghai Composite Index eased 0.09 percent, or 3.03 points, to 3,364, while the Shenzhen Composite Index was barely moved, inching down 0.07 points to 2,118. (AFP)
