SHANGHAI(Reuters) - Hong Kong stocks hit a near 11-year low on Thursday, as another big U.S. interest rate hike dampened risk appetite, but bargain hunting helped Chinese shares limit losses.

** The Hang Seng Tech Index lost 2.1% to hit a six-month low. Electric car makers including Xpeng Inc , Nio and Li Auto also fell sharply.
