Hong Kong stocks plunged 536 points, or 2.5%, to 20,934 around midday on Wednesday, ending a six-session winning streak as traders locked in profits after the Hang Seng hit a two-month high earlier this week. U.S. stock futures also fell sharply, tracking overnight losses on Wall Street, as Nvidia shares slumped following fresh U.S. government restrictions on sales of its H20 AI chips to China and other regions. The Hang Seng Tech Index plunged more than 4%, with Meituan down 7.0%, while Tencent Holdings and Alibaba Group dropped 2.4% and 1.5%, respectively. (Newsmaker23)
