Chinese shares fall sharply

Mainland Chinese shares fell on Monday after economic data released on Sunday underlined fears growth is slackening.

Growth in both fixed-asset investment, up 10.9% in August from a year ago, and factory output, at 6.1%, came in below expectations.

The Shanghai Composite index closed down 2.67% at 3,114.80, while Hong Kong's Hang Seng was flat, up just 0.16% at 21,538.97.

The Shanghai index has lost nearly 40% since its peak in mid-June.
