[HONG KONG] Hong Kong stocks put an end to three days of losses Friday but traders shifted cautiously on fears that the crisis enveloping Donald Trump's Presidency could throw his economy-boosting agenda off course.

The Hang Seng added 0.15 per cent, or 38.25 points, to 25,174.87.

The benchmark Shanghai Composite Index inched up 0.49 points to 3,090.63 but the Shenzhen Composite Index, which tracks stocks on China's second exchange, lost 0.12 per cent, or 2.28 points, to 1,853.71.
