Hong Kong: Stocks end week with a loss

The Hang Seng Index fell 0.12 per cent, or 39.13 points, to close at 31,501.97.
The benchmark Shanghai Composite Index lost 0.65 per cent, or 21.23 points, to close at 3,269.88, and the Shenzhen Composite Index, which tracks stocks on China's second exchange, fell 0.61 per cent, or 11.38 points, to 1,863.03.
