HONG KONG, April 2 (Reuters) – Hong Kong shares were set to
start the week higher on Monday, lifted by strength in Chinese
banking and energy issues after better-than-expected China
manufacturing data alleviated some jitters over the slowdown in
the world’s second-largest economy.
The Hang Seng Index was set to open up 0.52 percent
at 20,662.97. The China Enterprises Index of top
mainland listings in Hong Kong was indicated to start up 0.56
percent at 10,699.36.
