Alibaba -W fell 1.15%, with a transaction volume of HKD 8.112 billion. The company held an emergency all-hands meeting on March 4, discussing team adjustments and strategic direction, with management answering questions about organizational expansion and resource allocation; this may raise market concerns about organizational stability in the short term, but the company emphasized allocation for business expansion, which is expected to enhance strategic execution clarity (source: Wall Street Insight). JD.com -SW fell 0.71%, with a transaction volume of HKD 642 million; the market reminded that it will release earnings after the Hong Kong stock market closes, and earnings report windows usually come with guidance updates and business structure interpretations, which may cause fluctuations in stock prices and transaction activity around the announcement (source: Wall Street Insight).

Tencent Holdings rose 0.49%, with a transaction volume of HKD 6.384 billion; it was disclosed that on March 4, 2026, several Chinese concept stocks strengthened, and the recovery of overseas sentiment positively transmitted to the Hong Kong internet sector (source: Wall Street Insight).
