Hong Kong stocks tumble in morning session

HONG KONG, Aug 13, 2018 (AFP) – Hong Kong shares plunged Monday morning in
line with a worldwide rout fuelled by fears that a financial crisis in Turkey
could filter through to the global economy.

The Hang Seng Index sank 1.83 percent, or 519.30 points, to 27,847.32.
