H shares jump to 2-week high in HK

Chinese mainland stocks rose to the highest level in two weeks in Hong Kong, joining a global equity rebound as oil prices advanced.

In the mainland market, equities dropped for the first time in three days after the release of inflation data.

Hong Kong's Hang Seng China Enterprises Index climbed 3 percent to 8,166.47 at the close, led by financial and oil companies. The H-share gauge headed for its biggest weekly advance since April after valuations dropped to a record low last week.
