Hong Kong stocks flat at open

HONG KONG, June 28, 2018 (BSS/AFP) – Hong Kong stocks were marginally
higher in the first few minutes of trade Thursday morning but investors
remain on edge over a brewing trade war between China and the United States.

The Hang Seng Index inched up 11.75 points to 28,368.01.

But the benchmark Shanghai Composite Index lost 0.47 percent, or 13.28
points, to 2,799.90, while the Shenzhen Composite Index, which tracks stocks
on China’s second exchange, gave up 0.34 percent, or 5.42 points, to
1,570.15.
