HONG KONG, Dec 11, 2018 (BSS/AFP) – Hong Kong stocks slipped in the first
few minutes of trade Tuesday as investors brushed off a positive lead from
Wall Street, spooked by concerns over the global economy.
The Hang Seng Index eased 0.50 percent, or 128.98 points, to 25,623.40.
The benchmark Shanghai Composite Index edged up 0.09 percent, or 2.43
points, to 2,587.01 and the Shenzhen Composite Index, which tracks stocks on
China’s second exchange, added 0.21 percent, or 2.75 points, to 1,335.28.
