Hong Kong's morning trading session has been cancelled due to a typhoon alert issued by the government.
"There will be no morning trading sessions in the Hong Kong securities and derivatives markets due to the issuance of typhoon signal No. 8," Hong Kong Exchanges & Clearing said on its twitter account on Tuesday.
This also applies to Hong Kong-China stock connect trading, the bourse said.
HKEX had said earlier that if the signal or any announcement of extreme conditions is canceled before noon, the securities and derivatives markets will resume trading in the afternoon.
All trading sessions will be canceled if typhoon signal No. 8 or any announcement of extreme conditions remains in place at noon, the bourse had said.
According to the latest weather update from the Hong Kong Observatory, the typhoon signal is expected to remain in force for most of the day.
