Hong Kong stocks fell Tuesday, tracking an overnight tech selloff on the Wall Street, while persistent anti-monopoly fears also weighed on tech giants listed in the Asian financial hub.

The Hang Seng index dropped 2.2% to 27,982.21, while the Hong Kong China Enterprises Index lost 2.4%, to 10,398.45.

China stocks ended firmer Tuesday, underpinned by gains in consumer and healthcare firms, after data showed that factory-gate prices in the world’s 2nd-largest economy last month had reached the highest marks since October 2017.

The blue-chip CSI300 index was up 0.6% at 5,023.06, capping a 4-day losing streak, while the Shanghai Composite Index firmed 0.4% to finish at 3,441.85.
