Hong Kong's catering and hotel sectors anticipate a boost during the Labour Day "golden week" from May 1 to 5, driven by an influx of mainland Chinese tourists engaging in hiking and yacht sailing. Industry leaders expect a 5% year-on-year business increase, with restaurants diversifying menus to cater to these visitors. Despite rising fuel costs due to Middle East tensions, Hong Kong is becoming a preferred regional destination. Hotel bookings are strong, with expectations of 90% occupancy in tourist areas, while retail spending may see modest growth due to the volume of visitors.

China's $1.2 trillion trade surplus is significantly flowing into the Hong Kong stock market, as highlighted by a Caixin analysis. This trend coincides with the passing of investor Mark Mobius, signaling a decline in Western bullish sentiment towards China. While some surplus funds are used for overseas expansion, a substantial amount is still directed to equities. The shift raises concerns about the implications for the Chinese economy and whether these offshore flows are sanctioned by the government. Meanwhile, Western investors remain cautious, fearing regulatory uncertainties despite recent market rallies.

Hong Kong's financial chief revised the city's fiscal surplus for the previous year to HK$11 billion (US$1.91 billion), nearly four times the original estimate. Financial Secretary Paul Chan Mo-po stated that the ongoing Middle East conflict had a limited impact on the economy, with strong GDP growth in the first quarter. He dismissed concerns about increased bond issuance for the Northern Metropolis megaproject as "overly alarmist." The government’s consolidated account is expected to return to surplus in the 2025-26 financial year after three years of deficits.

Asian markets opened unevenly on Wednesday, with the Hang Seng index gaining 1.2% while South Korea's Kospi fell 0.39% and Australia's ASX 200 slipped 0.28%. Investor sentiment was cautious following a tech selloff in the U.S. and concerns over AI spending sustainability. The MSCI Asia-Pacific index eased 0.2%, with Japan closed for a holiday. The divergence in market performance suggests selective buying rather than broad conviction, as traders await the Federal Reserve's policy decision and major earnings reports.

$Hang Seng Index(00HSI.HK)has evolved into a hybrid market that reflects China’s economic cycle more than Hong Kong’s domestic fundamentals. Its performance is increasingly driven by mainland policy follow-through, earnings durability in platform and financial stocks, and cross-border capital flows via Stock Connect. Valuation alone is no longer a catalyst; sustained upside depends on whether policy support translates into real profit recovery and renewed confidence from long-term global investors.

The exchange rate of HKD against USD is rising rapidly. Will there still be big opportunities in Hong Kong stocks? $Hang Seng Index(00HSI.HK) $Hang Seng TECH Index(STECH.HK)

While the US stock market hovers under the shadow of tariffs, the Hong Kong stock market is experiencing a liquidity-driven structural frenzy. But is this 'Hong Kong stocks feast' the beginning of a trend revaluation, or a short-lived bubble induced by capital?From a macro perspective, the weak dollar cycle and the abundance of Hong Kong dollar liquidity are the core drivers of the Hong Kong stock market. In May, US tariff revenue surged to a peak of $22 billion, yet the CPI remained stable, coupled with the potential impact of immigration policies on the job market, the probability of a Fed rate cut in June-July is extremely low. The US stock market remains in a tug-of-war between 'chicken ribs market and downside risk.' In contrast, the Hong Kong dollar exchange rate has quickly slid from the strong-side guarantee to the weak-side edge, HIBOR rates are nearly zero, and the abundant liquidity is flooding into new consumption, innovative drugs, and A/H premium targets, driving both blue-chip dividend stocks and growth assets higher.However, the sustainability of the structural revaluation of Hong Kong stocks is highly dependent on the liquidity environment. The current extremely low level of HIBOR has deviated from the US benchmark interest rate. If the Fed's policy shifts or there are changes in the supply and demand of funds, a liquidity retreat could trigger a valuation correction. More critically, the structural premium of the same asset in Hong Kong stocks compared to A-shares lacks fundamental support. In a market dominated by southbound funds, caution is needed against the risk of valuation overshoot under 'capital frenzy.'In the short term, as long as the cost of borrowing in Hong Kong dollars remains low, there is still room for liquidity-driven revaluation to continue. However, in the long term, whether Hong Kong stocks can escape the 'capital market' dilemma depends on whether corporate earnings can take over liquidity as the anchor of valuation. Investors need to closely monitor changes in HIBOR rates and maintain sensitivity to risks amid the liquidity feast. $Hang Seng Index(00HSI.HK)

$Hang Seng Index(00HSI.HK)When the Hong Kong dollar triggers the strong-side convertibility undertaking, the Hong Kong government will be forced to issue Hong Kong dollars to buy US dollars (unless Hong Kong abandons the linked exchange rate system due to another crisis caused by excessive base money).Short-term may benefit the Hong Kong stock market.

On a weekly basis, the southbound capital flow in Hong Kong stocks was a net outflow in the past week. This is unusual, as it's the first time this has happened in at least over a year. $HSTECH ETF(03032.HK) $Hang Seng Index(00HSI.HK) $XIAOMI-W(01810.HK)

At 13:30 in the afternoon, the southbound capital suddenly surged, and the intraday chart skyrocketed after a 10-minute delay (did you day trade during these 10 minutes? 😂).Unlike yesterday, the southbound capital first rose and then fell in the morning, showing overall weakness. By 13:30, the net purchase was only 1.5 billion. After the surge, the cumulative net purchase for the day reached 5.15 billion.
