Hong Kong, Shanghai end morning with losses

HONG KONG, Nov 5, 2018 (BSS/AFP) – Shares tumbled in Hong Kong and
Shanghai Monday, reversing a surge at the end of last week after Donald
Trump’s top economics advisor downplayed the chances of a quick deal to end
the China-US trade war.

The Hang Seng Index sank 2.65 percent, or 701.15 points, to 25,785.20.

The Shanghai Composite Index fell 1.00 percent, or 26.64 points, to
2,649.84.
