HONG KONG, May 14 — Shares in Hong Kong sank today, in line with a sell-off across Asia and following a hammering on Wall Street as China’s retaliation against US tariff hikes fanned fears of an all-out trade war between the economic titans.
The Hang Seng Index fell 1.50 per cent, or 428.22 points, to 28,122.02.
