(Il Sole 24 Ore Radiocor) - Milano, 21 mag - Hong Kong share prices closed lower, reversing earlier session gains as sentiment deteriorated after a rebound in oil prices eclipsed Wall Street's rally.

Widespread profit-taking following recent advances and caution ahead of upcoming inflation data further dampened regional risk appetite, offsetting strong gains in electronic technology.

Losses in the financial and technology services sectors led the decline.

The Hang Seng index fell 1.03% to close at 25,386.52 points.
