The Hang Seng rose by 87 points, or 0.4%, to close at 23,207 on Tuesday, following a weak session the day before, as it moved away from a four-week low, lifted by expansion in the Chinese manufacturing sector.
A private survey showed that factory activity in the mainland grew the most in four months, following Monday's official data that revealed the manufacturing sector expanded at the fastest pace in a year. However, capping the gains, traders anticipated the unveiling of Trump's tariffs on Wednesday.
Tech, commercial services, energy minerals, and miscellaneous sectors mainly drove the index, with the top gainers including Wharf Real Estate (4.9%), Netease Inc. (4.1%), Kuaishou Technology (3.3%), China Shenhua Energy (2.5%), and Shenzhou International Group (2.4%).
