Hong Kong stocks down in morning session

HONG KONG, July 6, 2018 (BSS/AFP) – Hong Kong shares edged down in the
morning session Friday as punishing US tariffs on Chinese imports took
effect, marking the start of President Donald Trump’s trade war with China.

The Hang Seng Index shed 0.48 percent, or 135.20 points, to 28,046.89.
