Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index dropped nearly 2% following a Wall Street decline. Despite thin trading, consumer-related stocks rose due to expected holiday spending, and chipmakers gained on AI optimism. The yuan is on a winning streak, supported by a weak dollar and strong exports. However, sentiment in Hong Kong was affected by U.S. market declines and falling commodity prices. China stocks drifted lower in thin trading on Friday ahead of a week-long holiday, while Hong Kong shares sank as an overnight slide on Wall Street soured the sentiment. \*\* China's blue-chip CSI300 Index lost 0.8% by the lunch break, while the Shanghai Composite Index fell 0.7%. \*\* In Hong Kong, Hang Seng dropped nearly 2% to a one-week low. \*\* Many have left trading rooms for the nine-day Chinese Lunar New Year festival that starts on February 15. Mainland markets will be shut next week, while Hong Kong will be closed from Tuesday. \*\* Trading typically thins ahead of the Spring Festival holiday, but the stock market has held "at a relatively high level" without pulling back, Topsperity Securities said in a report, concluding that a strengthening yuan is lending support. \*\* The yuan is set for its longest weekly winning streak in 13 years, aided by a weak dollar and resilient Chinese exports. \*\* China's consumer-related stocks (.CSI930622) (.CSIH30205) rose as investors bet they will likely benefit from holiday spending. \*\* Chipmakers (.CSI950125) also gained as investors expect more Chinese breakthroughs in artificial intelligence. \*\* The mainland market was also anchored by signs of improvement in Sino-U.S. relations after the Trump administration shelved several key tech security measures aimed at Beijing ahead of an April meeting between the two countries' presidents. \*\* But sentiment in Hong Kong was spoiled after major U.S. stock indexes fell sharply on Thursday as technology shares slid and investors were cautious ahead of U.S. inflation data on Friday. \*\* Most sectors fell in Hong Kong. \*\* Material stocks (.HSCIM) tumbled as gold and silver prices slumped again. \*\* Energy stocks (.HSCIE) also dropped sharply as oil prices sank. ### Related Stocks - [03192.HK - A BOS RMB MM](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/03192.HK.md) - [00HSI.HK - Hang Seng Index](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/00HSI.HK.md) - [399300.CN - CSI 300](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/399300.CN.md) - [000300.CN - CSI 300](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/000300.CN.md) - [83192.HK - A BOS RMB MM-R](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/83192.HK.md) - [83122.HK - A CSOP RMB MM-R](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/83122.HK.md) - [03122.HK - A CSOP RMB MM](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/03122.HK.md) - [000001.CN - SSE Index](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/000001.CN.md) - [03161.HK - A CAM RMB MM](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/03161.HK.md) - [03420.HK - A VP RMB MM](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/03420.HK.md) ## Related News & Research | Title | Description | URL | |-------|-------------|-----| | 亚洲经济体在权衡特朗普新关税举措的影响时感到困惑 | 亚洲经济体正在评估特朗普总统宣布在最高法院裁定无效之前的关税后，实施新的 10% 全球进口关税的影响。日本和台湾等国正在密切关注这一情况，分析师预测可能会有进一步的关税措施。该裁决显著降低了美国的平均关税，但各国在准备应对潜在新征税时仍感到 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276506619.md) | | 百勤油服以比例担保支持人民币 6300 万元的再融资 | 百勤油服有限公司宣布通过其关联公司百勤能源达成 6300 万元人民币的再融资安排，获得 HRC 银行的新循环贷款。该贷款的担保仅限于百勤能源的按比例股权，由主要股东和百勤科技的抵押品提供支持。根据香港上市规则，此次再融资属于可披露交易，但符 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/275915188.md) | | 香港的失业率在过去三个月中微升至 3.9% | 香港的失业率在过去三个月上升了 0.1 个百分点，达到 3.9%，保险、建筑和金融行业的失业人数有所增加。尽管如此，劳工部门对就业市场仍持乐观态度，认为经济增长将带来积极影响。隐性失业率保持在 1.7%。劳工及福利局局长陈思进指出，尽管某些 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/276437674.md) | | 人民币汇率创下 33 个月来的新高 | 人民币兑美元触及 6.90，为 2023 年 5 月以来的最高点。在过去的 4 周内，美元兑人民币下跌了 0.97%，而在过去 12 个月中，人民币贬值了 5.03% | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/275679726.md) | | 中国人民银行今日将美元兑人民币的中间价设定为 6.9457（市场预期为 6.9153） | 中国人民银行允许人民币在此基准汇率上下波动 +/- 2% 的范围内。前一交易日收盘价为 6.9106，后续信息敬请期待 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/275682396.md) | --- > **Disclaimer**: This article is for reference only and does not constitute any investment advice.
