Hong Kong stocks finished a rollercoaster week on a positive note on Friday as traders cheered moves to support troubled banks following the collapse of two US lenders last weekend.

The Hang Seng Index rallied 1.6 percent, or 314 points, to 19,518.

The Shanghai Composite Index climbed 0.7 percent, or 23 points, to 3,250, while the Shenzhen Composite Index added 0.5 percent, or 10 points, to 2,060. (AFP)
