# Zhitong Decision Reference | Hong Kong stocks will mainly focus on adjustments

**\[Editor’s Market View\]**

In December, the Federal Reserve is expected to lower interest rates by 25 basis points without any surprises; however, Powell unexpectedly made hawkish remarks. According to the latest dot plot, the number of interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve next year has been significantly reduced. The strengthening of the US dollar has put pressure on Hong Kong stocks. The Hang Seng Index fell below the short-term moving average last week.

This week, as we enter the Christmas holiday, overseas funds will generally be on vacation, so Hong Kong stocks will mainly focus on consolidation. Meanwhile, the tightening of domestic regulations will further suppress market sentiment.

Current market hotspots mainly revolve around self-controllable chips and AI applications, with actions from major companies like ByteDance and Tencent directly triggering market enthusiasm. Concepts such as WeChat mini-stores, computing power, AI glasses, etc., are gaining attention.

Looking ahead this week, the Ministry of Commerce stated that it will expedite the formulation of relevant policies for "two new" next year. The market has the highest expectations for mobile phone subsidy policies, so we will see when they can be implemented.

According to the latest report from Reference News, the President of Kyrgyzstan announced that the China-Kyrgyzstan-Uzbekistan railway will commence construction on December 27. Zaparov stated, "The China-Kyrgyzstan-Uzbekistan railway project, which has been on paper for decades, is finally going to be implemented," so we will observe the actions of related state-owned enterprises.

The annual meeting of the China Robotics Network will be held in Shanghai on December 26, during which GAC's humanoid robot new products will be heavily launched.

**【Editor's Remarks】**

Since November, the profit expectations for overseas Chinese-funded stocks for this year and next year have been revised downwards, with the EPS for the internet and pharmaceutical sectors in 2024 being revised down by 3% and 9% respectively from the peak in September, while the profit expectations for high-dividend sectors such as insurance, telecommunications, and transportation remain robust. Currently, until the two sessions next year, the market is entering a policy window period, and overseas liquidity may become the anchor point for the short-term market rhythm.
