However, the downswing was capped by strong performance of Japanese stocks and Friday's encouraging US numbers. The Hang Seng Index lost 0.16% to end the session at 23,685.01. Five out of nine industries included in the index finished higher. The top-performers were consumer goods. Belle International, Tingyi Cayman Islands Holding and Want Want China Holdings jumped 1.84%, 1.13% and 2.54%, respectively. Among top laggards were basic materials and oil and gas industries. Aluminum Corp of China (Chalco) dropped 2.14%, while PetroChina and CNOOC sagged 1.44% and 0.13%. Meanwhile, Ping An declined the most in the index after approval of HSBC's sales of its stake in the Ping An. Ping An slumped 2.75% but remained above HKD59 per share, the level HSBC had priced its stake sale.
