Gains in telcos and industrial stocks were offset by losses in energy and financial shares. The Hang Seng China Enterprises Index, which tracks the performance of China companies listed in Hong Kong, was 0.6 percent, or 59.70 points, lower at 10,787.13. AAC Technologies, which closed at a record high on Thursday, was the biggest drag on the index with a sizable 12.1 percent loss. A near 11 percent ascent in Power Assets Holdings shares ensured that utilities took the honours for the best performing sector in percentage terms.
