HK shares down nearly 2 pct after China CPI data

HONG KONG, March 11 (Reuters) - Hong Kong stocks fell further
on Tuesday after higher-than-expected inflation data from China
sparked worries that Beijing will use further measures to rein in
consumer prices.

The benchmark Hang Seng Index .HSI was down 1.8 percent at
22,295.95 at 0216 GMT but was being supported at around 22,300
points. The China Enterprises index of H shares .HSCE, or Hong
Kong-listed shares in mainland companies, fell 3 percent to
12,143.42.
