[HONG KONG] Hong Kong stocks ended up 0.43 per cent on Thursday, after China reassured markets it would not allow the yuan to plummet in the wake of a surprise devaluation this week.

The benchmark Hang Seng Index added 102.78 points to end the day at 24,018.8 on turnover of HK$86.81 billion (S$15.6 billion).
