Chinese construction company jumps 2%

According to the latest Reuters report, China Vanke's Hong Kong shares increased by over 2% in early trading on 15 August after China's biggest home builder announced first-half profit rose by 10%. This increase came despite the company being hit by a high-profile battle for control.

Vanke's Shenzhen-listed shares gained 3.6%.

While net profit grew in the six months ended June, Vanke announced that some of its partners and customers have raised concerns about the company's prospects as a result of its dispute with its biggest shareholder, Baoneng Group.
