Hong Kong shares climb to 21-month high, China back at May peaks

Hong Kong shares climbed to their highest since end-April 2011 on Wednesday, helped by strength in China-related counters that pushed the Hang Seng Index above a chart level that had put a lid on gains for nearly two weeks.

The CSI300 Index of the top Shanghai and Shenzhen A-share listings rose 0.5 per cent, while the Shanghai Composite Index climbed 1 per cent in the fourth-highest volume this month. Both closed at their highest since May 2012.
