Secondary home prices in Hong Kong retreated from a two-week climb.

The Centaline Property Agency's price tracking Centa-City Leading Index fell by 1.46 percent from a week ago to 178.48 points. CCL for small and medium units fell by 1.65 percent, from the previous week. The index tracking large-scale real estate was also down by 0.4 percent week-on-week.

The agency said that the index fell significantly, reflecting the market's general concern that social events may escalate, and some small owners took advantage of high property prices to sell.
