Hong Kong: Hong Kong stocks reversed early losses to chalk up a sixth successive gain Thursday as the US announced it would renegotiate the NAFTA deal, soothing fears after reports said Donald Trump was considering leaving it.

The Hang Seng Index rose 0.49 percent, or 120.05 points, to 24,698.48.

The benchmark Shanghai Composite Index ended up 0.36 percent, or 11.34 points, at 3,152.19 and the Shenzhen Composite Index, which tracks stocks on China's second exchange, rose 0.36 percent, or 10.24 points, to 1,900.03.
