HONG KONG, Jan 28, 2019 (BSS/AFP) – Hong Kong stocks finished flat Monday

key week that includes China-US trade talks, another Brexit vote and a
Federal Reserve policy meeting.

The Hang Seng Index inched up 7.77 points to 27,576.96.

The benchmark Shanghai Composite Index sank 0.18 percent, or 4.75 points,
to 2,596.98, while the Shenzhen Composite Index, which tracks stocks on
China’s second exchange, slipped 0.38 percent, or 4.98 points, to 1,314.99.
