Hong Kong stocks retreat on weak China data
SINGAPORE, Sept 16 (Reuters) -Hong Kong shares slipped in holiday-thinned trade on Monday, weighed by another batch of underwhelming Chinese economic data.
** At the midday break, Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index .HSI was down 0.29% at 17,318.16. Chinese H-shares listed in Hong Kong .HSCE fell 0.35% to 6,049.99.
** Mainland stock, bond and foreign exchange markets were closed for the mid-autumn festival break and will resume trading on Wednesday Sept. 18. Hong Kong markets will remain closed on Sept. 18. CN/HOLIDAY, HK/HOLIDAY
** The top gainer on the Hang Seng was New World Development 0017.HK, which added 2.49%, while the biggest loser, car dealer Zhongsheng Group Holdings 0881.HK, shed 5.21%.
** The three biggest H-shares percentage decliners were J&T Global Express 1519.HK, which was down 7.67%, China Resources Land 1109.HK, which fell 3.98%, and Longfor Group Holdings 0960.HK, which slipped 3.74%.
** Home builders' shares were sold as data over the weekend showed China's new home prices fell 5.3% from a year earlier in August, with supportive measures failing to spur a meaningful recovery.
** China industrial output also slowed to a five-month low, increasing market speculation that extra stimulus will be needed to achieve China's annual growth target.
** About 483.54 million Hang Seng index shares were traded, roughly 19.1% of the market's 30-day moving average.
** Interbank rates in Hong Kong HIBOR= slid to their lowest in years, partly in anticipation of falling U.S. interest rates but also reflecting high cash balances and little confidence to invest in Hong Kong equities.
** Around the region, MSCI's Asia ex-Japan stock index .MIAPJ0000PUS gained 0.33%, though thinned by holidays around Asia, while the Japan market was closed for a holiday.
