Hong Kong stocks extend gains by break

HONG KONG, Sept 19, 2018 (BSS/AFP) – Hong Kong stocks rallied in the
morning session Wednesday, building on the previous day’s gains as investors
were cheered by the latest relatively light tit-for-tat tariffs from China
and the US.

The Hang Seng Index jumped 0.97 percent, or 263.48 points, to 27,348.14 by
the break.
