Hong Kong: Shares finish with fresh gains

[HONG KONG] Hong Kong shares finished with fresh gains on Wednesday as investors built on a recent rally supported by bargain-buying of tech firms, which have been hit for weeks by China's regulatory crackdown on a range of industries.

The Hang Seng Index added 0.58 per cent, or 149.30 points, to 26,028.29.

The Shanghai Composite Index rose 0.65 per cent, or 23.16 points, to 3,567.10, though the Shenzhen Composite Index on China's second exchange shed 0.49 per cent, or 11.97 points, to 2,417.89.
