Stock market indexes in China and Hong Kong advanced on Friday and trimmed weekly losses as investors reassessed the domestic economic growth outlook.
The Hang Seng index increased 0.6%, and the CSI 300 index advanced 0.9% as investors speculated that the U.S. Federal Reserve is more likely to raise rates after its next policy meeting on September 18.
Private businesses added a net of 55,000 jobs in August, sharply lower than 104,000 in the previous month, according to a survey released by ADP.
The ADP's data series is volatile and widely perceived as less reliable than the nonfarm payroll report released by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
The August month's nonfarm payroll data are scheduled to be released on Friday.
The U.S. labor market has been resilient, but payroll expansion has been rapidly cooling in the face of tariff uncertainty and trade policy flip-flops by the Trump administration.
China Indexes and Stocks
The Hang Seng Index rose 0.6% to 25,203.87, and the mainland-focused CSI 300 index advanced 0.9% to 4,402.75.
Alibaba Group Holding edged down 0.2% to HK$129.80, Tencent Holdings increased 1.1% to HK$599.0, and Meituan advanced 1% to HK$102.50.
Li Auto increased 1% to HK$93.75, BYD advanced 0.3% to HK$104.80, and Xpeng Inc. decreased 0.3% to HK$76.80.
