Hong Kong stocks fell for the fourth session in a row on Tuesday as a months-long rally showed further signs of fatigue, and as investors awaited a speech by US President Donald Trump for details on tax reform and infrastructure spending. The Hang Seng index fell 0.8 percent to 23,740.73 points, while the China Enterprises Index lost 0.3 percent to 10,297.96. The Hang Seng has gained around 8 percent so far this year, while the HSCE has climbed nearly 10 percent. Most sectors fell on Tuesday, with telecom and energy shares among the biggest losers.
