Hong Kong stocks down at lunch

HONG KONG, Sept 24, 2018 (BSS/AFP) – Hong Kong shares sank more than one
percent on Monday morning as investors were spooked by China’s refusal to
meet US officials for talks to avert an all-out trade war.

The Hang Seng Index fell 1.25 percent, or 350.50 points, to 27,603.08 by
the break.
