According to Zhitong Finance APP, Hong Kong stocks fluctuated higher this morning, but all three major indices collectively plunged in the afternoon, with the Hang Seng Index briefly rising into the green at the end of trading. By the close, the Hang Seng Index fell 0.24% or 63.45 points, closing at 26,282.69 points, with a total turnover of HKD 35.3804 billion; the Hang Seng China Enterprises Index fell 0.31%, closing at 9,346.86 points; the Hang Seng Tech Index fell 0.68%, closing at 6,051.76 points.
Everbright Securities believes that with the Federal Reserve entering a rate-cutting cycle, Hong Kong stocks may continue to fluctuate upward in the future. The overall profitability of Hong Kong stocks is relatively strong, and assets in sectors such as the internet, new consumption, and innovative pharmaceuticals are relatively scarce. Additionally, despite the continuous rise of Hong Kong stocks for several months, the overall valuation remains low, and the long-term cost-effectiveness of allocation is still high. With the ongoing development of the AI industry and the backdrop of the Federal Reserve's rate-cutting cycle, the Hong Kong stock market may continue to fluctuate upward in the future.
<h2>Blue Chip Performance</h2>
CHINAHONGQIAO (01378) hit a new high. By the close, it rose 8.17%, closing at HKD 29.92, with a turnover of HKD 1.53 billion, contributing 9.9 points to the Hang Seng Index. Tianfeng Securities stated that under the backdrop of a tightening supply-demand pattern, the profitability per ton of aluminum in the electrolytic aluminum industry has significantly improved, and high profits are expected to continue, with the profitability of electrolytic aluminum companies improving simultaneously; at the same time, under the limitation of domestic supply ceilings, the peak of capital expenditure for electrolytic aluminum companies has ended, and leading companies represented by CHINAHONGQIAO have gradually implemented stable dividends, with a clear trend of overall increased dividends in the electrolytic plate industry this year.
In other blue chip stocks, Zijin Mining (02899) rose 4.57%, closing at HKD 32.5, contributing 12.64 points to the Hang Seng Index; Xinyi Solar (00968) rose 3.01%, closing at HKD 3.77, contributing 0.79 points to the Hang Seng Index; Budweiser APAC (01876) fell 4.76%, closing at HKD 8, dragging down the Hang Seng Index by 1.25 points; Techtronic Industries (00669) fell 4.74%, closing at HKD 94.5, dragging down the Hang Seng Index by 10.86 points.
<h2>Popular Sectors</h2>
On the market, technology stocks showed mixed performance today, with Meituan rising over 2%, Tencent rising nearly 1%, and Xiaomi continuing to fall by 1.69%. Ganfeng Lithium surged nearly 15% after turning a profit in the third quarter, while Tianqi Lithium rose over 9%; with macro factors improving, non-ferrous metals such as copper, aluminum, and gold saw significant gains; photovoltaic and energy storage stocks performed well, with Zhongxin Innovation rising over 10%; the export value of construction machinery in September continued to grow year-on-year, with most construction machinery stocks rising; coal, shipping, and power stocks also rose. On the other hand, domestic property stocks, pharmaceutical stocks, and cryptocurrency concept stocks faced pressure.
1. Non-ferrous metals led the gains. By the close, Ganfeng Lithium (01772) rose 14.94%, closing at HKD 54.25; Aluminum Corporation of China (02600) rose 10.23%, closing at HKD 10.13; Jiangxi Copper (00358) rose 5.12%, closing at HKD 34.5; Luoyang Molybdenum (03993) rose 4.68%, closing at HKD 17.43; Zijin Mining (02899) rose 4.57%, closing at HKD 32.5.
The lithium mining giants have successively disclosed their third-quarter performance. Tianqi Lithium's third-quarter report for 2025 shows that the net profit attributable to shareholders of the listed company for the first three quarters was RMB 180 million, turning from a loss to a profit year-on-year, with a net profit attributable to shareholders of the listed company of RMB 95.4855 million in the third quarter
Ganfeng Lithium achieved revenue of 6.249 billion yuan in the third quarter, a year-on-year increase of 44.10%; the net profit for the single quarter reached 557 million yuan, a substantial year-on-year growth of 364.02%. CITIC Securities pointed out that looking ahead to Q4 2025, the bank expects supply tightness to drive prices of commodities such as copper and cobalt to continue rising, while lithium prices are expected to benefit from higher-than-expected energy storage demand.
In addition, favorable macro factors support non-ferrous metals, with overnight LME copper prices fluctuating strongly, reaching a historical high during the session; international gold prices rebounded after previously falling to a three-week low. Everbright Futures believes that the meeting between the leaders of China and the United States boosted market sentiment. Although Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell's stance on interest rate cuts is hawkish, the end of balance sheet reduction is still understood by the market as maintaining a relatively loose liquidity environment, which remains optimistic overall and has a certain uplifting effect on non-ferrous metals.
2. Photovoltaic and energy storage concept stocks rose throughout the day. By the close, Xinte Energy (01799) rose 6.72% to HKD 8.42; GCL-Poly Energy (03800) rose 4.55% to HKD 1.38; Zhongxin Innovation (03931) rose 10.48% to HKD 34.38; Ruipu Lanjun (00666) rose 6.56% to HKD 15.11.

Our 17 leading enterprises have basically all signed.&#34; In addition, according to statistics from CITIC Construction Investment, from January to September this year, the newly tendered domestic energy storage projects totaled 255.8 GWh, a year-on-year increase of 97.7%. Considering that Q4 is often the peak season for tenders, the total annual tendering could reach at least 361.6 GWh.
3. Most engineering machinery stocks rose.

Guoyuan Securities stated that at this point in time, we believe that from both the supply and demand sides, domestic leading enterprises still have strong competitive advantages in exports. The bank is optimistic that the engineering machinery industry will continue to maintain a steady growth trend.

Although the market briefly stabilized in the first quarter of this year, new home sales and prices have both fallen back into a declining range since April, with the decline further expanding in June. The month-on-month drop in second-hand home prices has also continued to widen, with first-tier cities not being an exception. Looking ahead to 2026, real estate market sales may continue to decline.
