NEW YORK, July 7 (Xinhua) -- U.S.-listed Chinese companies traded mostly lower on Tuesday, with six of the top 10 stocks by weight in the S&P U.S. Listed China 50 index ending the day on a downbeat note.

Shares of Pinduoduo and ZTO Express rose 4.6 percent and 3.22 percent, respectively, leading the gainers in the top 10 stocks.
