Hong Kong shares fell 94 points, or 0.4%, to 23,431 in early trading on Monday, reversing gains from the previous session amid a sharp decline in U.S. stock futures as tensions in the Middle East escalated. The U.S. State Department issued a "global caution" warning after Tehran vowed retaliation in response to President Donald Trump's attack on an Iranian nuclear power site. Investors were also cautious as they digested China's FDI data, which showed a 13.2% year-on-year decline in the first five months of the year, despite a surge in high-tech investment. (alg)
