HONG KONG, Sept 10 (Reuters) - Hong Kong stocks are set to rise on Friday, set for a second successive weekly gain after better-than-expected employment nuumbers from the U.S. eased worries about a double-dip in the world's largest economy.
The benchmark Hang Seng Index <.HSI> was set to open 0.68 percent higher at 21,310.72, poised to fill the gap that opened up on the downside when the index snapped a five-day gaining streak on Wednesday.
Large caps such as HSBC Holdings Plc <0005.HK> and CNOOC Ltd <0883.HK> were expected to have the biggest positive impact on the Hang Seng Index. (Reporting by Vikram S Subhedar; Editing by Chris Lewis)
