Hong Kong share market finished sharply lower on Monday, 15 September 2014, as risk aversion selloff flared after slew of weaker-than-expected China's activity data (industrial production, retail sales, and fixed asset investment) in August and on caution ahead of the United States Federal Reserve two-day policy meeting starting tomorrow. The Hang Seng Index ended 238.33 points, or 0.97%, down at 24356.99. The benchmark index has fallen for seven consecutive trading days, losing a total of 962 points during the period. Market turnover rose to HK$66.64 billion from HK$61.17 billion on last Friday.
