 HONG KONG, March 20 (Reuters) - Hong Kong stocks tumbled on
Thursday, as Wall Street declines deflated confidence and
investors sold off resource stocks amid plunging gold and oil
prices.
 The benchmark Hang Seng Index .HSI opened down 3.2 percent
at 21,173.30. The China Enterprises Index of Hong Kong-listed
mainland companies .HSCE, or H shares, was down nearly 5
percent at 10,857.32 at 0202GMT.
