Chinese stocks listed in Hong Kong rebounded on Monday after earlier trading had pushed a key gauge close to a bear market threshold, as investors returned from a holiday and weighed weak consumption data from China. The move followed a prior slide in the gauge that had brought cumulative losses near 20 percent from a recent peak, a level commonly used to define a bear market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
