Gambling companies suffered losses after Hong Kong stocks closed 0.91 percent lower on Monday.

Wynn Macau dropped 4.6 percent to $1.97 (HK$15.28), while SJM Holdings and Galaxy Entertainment tumbled by 2.8 percent to $1.13 (HK$8.75) and $4.48 (HK$34.70), respectively.

The Hong Kong Stock Exchange (HKEx) attributed the fall to investors reacting to data that showed a manufacturing decline in China. According to the Wall Street Journal, China’s final measure of factory activity slumped to a two-year low on Monday, which added to the investors’ faltering faith in Beijing’s commitment to rescue the stock market.
