Hong Kong stocks down at lunch

HONG KONG, Feb 3, 2021 (BSS/AFP) – Shares in Hong Kong fell in the morning session Wednesday, capping a two-day rally from last week’s sell-off, with buying hit by a decision by China’s central bank to tighten liquidity in mainland financial markets.

The Hang Seng Index eased 0.47 percent, or 137.95 points, to 29,110.75.
