Hong Kong stocks end flat after two days of gains

HONG KONG, July 10, 2018 (BSS/AFP) – Hong Kong stocks ended marginally lower
Tuesday after a two-day advance as early gains were wiped out by profit-
taking, while investors look ahead to the corporate reporting season.

The Hang Seng Index was flat, inching down 6.25 points to finish at
28,682.25.

The benchmark Shanghai Composite Index closed 0.44 percent higher, or 12.52
points, to 2,827.63 and the Shenzhen Composite Index, which tracks stocks on
China’s second exchange, rose 0.71 percent, or 11.24 points, to 1,585.78.
