HK stocks open lower, after losses on Wall Street
Hong Kong stocks fell at the open on Friday following a negative lead from Wall Street and a broadly healthy week fuelled by hopes the Federal Reserve will not hike interest rates further. The Hang Seng Index fell 1.1 percent to 19,418. The Shanghai Composite Index slipped 0.3 percent to 3,206, while the Shenzhen Composite Index on China's second exchange also shed 0.3 percent to 2,022. (AFP)
