Hong Kong stocks finished Monday slightly lower as investors failed to maintain early momentum following a record performance on Wall Street, as weak US jobs data eased lingering concerns about an expected surge in inflation as the global economy recovers.
The Hang Seng Index dipped 0.05 percent, or 14.99 points, to 28,595.66.
The benchmark Shanghai Composite Index added 0.27 percent, or 9.12 points, to 3,427.99, while the Shenzhen Composite Index on China's second exchange edged up 0.19 percent, or 4.25 points, to 2,243.93.
