Alibaba -W fell 3.49%, with a transaction volume of HKD 7.897 billion; changes in the management of its core AI business have caused short-term execution uncertainty, suppressing sentiment, but user engagement data remains strong. JD.com -SW fell 3.14%, with a transaction volume of HKD 709 million; the market is focused on its upcoming Q4 2025 earnings report, with broker expectations of profit pressure, and investors are paying attention to retail and logistics margin guidance. Miniso fell 2.46%, with a transaction volume of HKD 54.2117 million; the company's continued buybacks convey management confidence, providing some support for the stock price in a volatile market, but the scale is relatively moderate. Overall, trading activity in the sector is concentrated among leaders, with weaker capital participation in non-core targets. ▪ Internet Content and Information: Currently, the sector is weakening, with regulatory uncertainties and potential spin-off expectations intertwining, leading to a decline in risk appetite. Tencent Holdings fell 0.88%, with a transaction volume of HKD 5.101 billion; if overseas regulators require it to divest some gaming investments, it may affect asset composition and valuation, putting short-term pressure on sentiment. Kuaishou -W fell 2.16%, with a transaction volume of HKD 744 million; stricter governance on "AI-modified" videos may raise content review costs and suppress some supply, but it helps reduce regulatory risks. Baidu -SW fell 1.79%, with a transaction volume of HKD 491 million; sellers are focusing on the potential spin-off of Kunlun Chip and valuation premium expectations, which could become a potential catalyst for mid-term valuation reassessment. On the capital side, the sector leans towards high liquidity leaders, with event-driven impacts influencing short-term trading themes. ▪ Oil and Gas Exploration and Production: Currently, the sector has generally retreated, with oil price fluctuations resonating with corporate governance events, putting pressure on risk appetite. CNOOC fell 2.46%, with a transaction volume of HKD 3.526 billion; the stock price has increased elasticity due to oil price fluctuations caused by geopolitical factors and overseas policy statements. United Energy Group fell 5.68%, with a transaction volume of HKD 347 million; small-cap upstream companies are more sensitive to oil prices and capital flows, amplifying volatility. Zhonggang Petroleum fell 35.96%, with a transaction volume of HKD 427.924 billion; due to public condemnation by the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and improper disclosure related to the termination of significant asset leases, market trust has been damaged. Overall, risk aversion sentiment is rising, and sector allocation is becoming more conservative. **Macroeconomic Background** ▪ As of the time of writing, the market focus is on macro and policy variables over the past month: expectations for Federal Reserve interest rate cuts, HIBOR and Hong Kong dollar exchange rate, RMB trends, net inflow from the north, policies from the Two Sessions, performance of leading tech companies, mainland PMI and real estate relief, Hong Kong CPI and retail, etc. These factors collectively influence risk appetite and capital flows, pushing the index into a correction and rebalancing near previous high levels. **Top 10 Market Turnover** ▪ Alibaba -W (09988.HK) Latest transaction price 129.2 HKD, down 3.49%, turnover 7.897 billion ▪ Tencent Holdings (00700.HK) Latest transaction price 503.0 HKD, down 1.57%, turnover 6.101 billion ▪ China National Offshore Oil Corporation (00883.HK) Latest transaction price 26.62 HKD, down 3.47%, turnover 3.778 billion ▪ Xiaomi Group -W (01810.HK) Latest transaction price 31.90 HKD, up 1.01%, turnover 3.215 billion ▪ Yangtze Optical Fibre and Cable Joint Stock Limited Company (06869.HK) Latest transaction price 145.5 HKD, down 6.14%, turnover 2.269 billion ▪ Meituan-W (03690.HK) Latest transaction price 73.9 HKD, down 2.25%, turnover 1.969 billion ▪ HSBC Holdings (00005.HK) Latest transaction price 130.5 HKD, down 3.54%, turnover 1.938 billion ▪ Ping An Insurance (02318.HK) Latest transaction price 63.2 HKD, down 4.14%, turnover 1.683 billion ▪ Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (00981.HK) Latest transaction price 61.8 HKD, down 2.54%, turnover 1.523 billion ▪ PetroChina Company Limited (00857.HK) Latest transaction price 9.97 HKD, down 4.22%, turnover 1.494 billion ### Related Stocks - [BABA-W (09988.HK)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/09988.HK.md) - [JD-SW (09618.HK)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/09618.HK.md) - [MNSO (09896.HK)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/09896.HK.md) - [TENCENT (00700.HK)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/00700.HK.md) - [KUAISHOU-W (01024.HK)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/01024.HK.md) - [BIDU-SW (09888.HK)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/09888.HK.md) - [CNOOC (00883.HK)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/00883.HK.md) - [UNITEDENERGY GP (00467.HK)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/00467.HK.md) - [CHK OIL (00632.HK)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/00632.HK.md) - [XIAOMI-W (01810.HK)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/01810.HK.md) - [YOFC (06869.HK)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/06869.HK.md) - [Hang Seng TECH Index (STECH.HK)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/STECH.HK.md) - [Hang Seng China Enterprises Index (HSCEI.HK)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/HSCEI.HK.md) - [Hang Seng Index (00HSI.HK)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/00HSI.HK.md) - [TRACKER FUND (02800.HK)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/02800.HK.md) - [HSTECH ETF (03032.HK)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/03032.HK.md) - [CSOP HS TECH (03033.HK)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/03033.HK.md) - [HSCEI ETF (02828.HK)](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/02828.HK.md) ## Related News & Research - [Xiaomi 17 is a small(ish) phone with a big(ish) battery](https://longbridge.com/en/news/277311828.md) - [Phone makers of all sizes are feeling the RAM crunch](https://longbridge.com/en/news/277665709.md) - [China's Search Giant Baidu Struggles With Weak Ad Spending Despite AI Push](https://longbridge.com/en/news/277056050.md) - [Hohimer Wealth Management LLC Sells 14,451 Shares of Alibaba Group Holding Limited $BABA](https://longbridge.com/en/news/277189076.md) - [Head of Alibaba's Qwen AI division resigns](https://longbridge.com/en/news/277711975.md)
