The Technology and State-Owned Enterprises indices saw slight pullbacks, indicating an increase in market wait-and-see sentiment.

Trading activity was relatively high, with notable movements in individual stocks such as GaoKeQiao, highlighting significant short-term speculative trading.

# Hong Kong stock market closing | The Hang Seng Index ultimately rose by 0.12%, with the declines of the Hang Seng Tech Index and the China Enterprises Index narrowing, while the retail and technology sectors were generally under pressure

**Market Overview**

▪ The three major indices of the Hong Kong stock market closed with mixed performances today, with increasing market caution.

▪ The Hang Seng Index closed at 25,498.13 points, up 0.12%, marking two consecutive days of midday gains, closing in the green, and remaining above 25,000 points since Tuesday's low.

▪ The Hang Seng Tech Index closed at 5,418.29 points, down 0.73%, facing short-term pressure.

▪ The China Enterprises Index closed at 8,841.51 points, slightly down 0.02%, maintaining a narrow fluctuation pattern.

**Sector Performance**

▪ The retail sector overall faced pressure, with leading stocks generally declining. Alibaba-W closed down 1.30%, and the weakness of the leaders led to a cautious atmosphere in the sector. JD-SW closed down 0.09%, and MNSO fell sharply by 3.65%. There was evident short-term selling pressure, reflecting that the recovery process of consumer demand still has fluctuations.

▪ The internet sector showed significant volatility, with internal differentiation. Tencent closed flat, with a strong atmosphere of investor caution. KUAISHOU-W rose slightly by 0.23%, while BIDU-SW fell by 0.84%. Overall, there was frequent switching of market hotspots, with some stocks experiencing fluctuations due to news and short-term capital rotation.

▪ The hardware, storage, and peripherals sector generally declined, with Xiaomi Group-W closing down 2.47% and LENOVO GROUP down 1.88%. The sector lacks growth drivers, with reduced risk appetite from funds, and adjustments in leading stocks suppressing industry activity.

**Macroeconomic Background**

▪ The short-term performance of the Hong Kong stock market is positively driven by the retail sales year-on-year increase to 5.3%, indicating that the improvement in domestic demand has become the main bullish logic and source of confidence in the current market. Investors are focusing on the fluctuations in consumption and export data, as well as expectations for macro policies and changes in the RMB exchange rate.

▪ The macro environment boosts the domestic demand concept, but there is a clear rotation between high and low sectors, with capital converging, making short-term market performance susceptible to fluctuations in macro data.
