Hong Kong canceled trading in the city’s $5.2 trillion stock market on Monday because of typhoon Talim.

Hong Kong Exchanges & Clearings Ltd. made the move as the No. 8 signal — the government’s third-highest warning on a scale of five — remained in force throughout trading hours. The local observatory lowered the signal by one level to No. 3 at 4:20 p.m.
