[HONG KONG] Hong Kong stocks edged up at the start of trade Tuesday after tumbling more than two per cent over the previous two days on worries about the impact of a Donald Trump presidency on world trade and interest rates

The Hang Seng index rose 0.22 per cent, or 48.68 points, to 22,270.90. But the benchmark Shanghai Composite Index was flat, edging down 0.01 per cent to 3,209.95 points, while the Shenzhen Composite Index, which tracks stocks on China's second exchange, was also barely moved, dipping 0.14 points to 2,114.16.
