The Hong Kong stock market ended softer after a volatile ride on Tuesday, 04 August 2015, as appetite for risk assets dimmed after weak manufacturing data reignited concerns about the world's number two economy. The benchmark opened 47 points lower, but recovered all the lost ground and soared as many as 107 points early afternoon before giving up all the gains. The Hang Seng Index ended 5.30 points, or 0.02%, higher at 24406.12 points. The Hang Seng China Enterprises Index, benchmark measure of performance of mainland China enterprises, rebounded 64.96 points, or 0.59%, to 11074.92 points. Turnover increased to HK$79.5 billion from HK$77.7 billion on Friday.
