Shares of Chinese tech giant Alibaba in Hong Kong were in the spotlight once again on Monday. That came after Chinese regulators ordered Alibaba-affiliate Ant Group to rectify its businesses.

By afternoon in Hong Kong, shares of Alibaba listed in the city plunged 7.01%, adding to losses for the firm. The stock had also dived last Thursday following reports that Chinese regulators will probe the tech behemoth for suspected monopolistic behavior.

Shares of other Hong Kong-listed Chinese tech firms also declined: Tencent fell 4.77% while Meituan slipped 5.3%. The broader Hang Seng Tech index shed 3.27%.

Asia markets higher

Meanwhile, stocks in Asia edged higher on Monday as the final trading week of 2020 kicked off.

In Japan, the Nikkei 225 gained 0.56% while the Topix index advanced 0.38%. South Korea’s Kospi rose 0.36%.

Mainland Chinese stocks edged higher by the afternoon, with the Shanghai composite up 0.3% while the Shenzhen component rose 0.435%. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng index hovered above the flatline.

MSCI’s broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan rose 0.28%.
