Hong Kong stocks lose almost 1% in morning

HONG KONG, Sept 3, 2018 (BSS/AFP) – Hong Kong stocks ended Monday morning
sharply lower after trade war fears resurfaced with Donald Trump looking to
impose fresh sanctions on China this week and NAFTA talks with Canada ending
without agreement.

The Hang Seng Index eased 0.95 percent, or 264.63 points, to 27,623.92 by
the break.
