Hong Kong's Financial Secretary, Paul Chan, announced that there will be no further withdrawals from the Exchange Fund in the next five years. This follows a previous proposal to withdraw HK$150 billion (US$19 billion), the first since 1984. The Exchange Fund is vital for maintaining the Hong Kong dollar's peg to the U.S. dollar, and Chan stressed that future withdrawals should not become routine, as the fund is essential for financial stability and investor confidence.

Fines and penalties contributed HK$2.1 billion (US$268.39 million) to Hong Kong's government revenue in 2025-26, exceeding forecasts by 26%. This income, accounting for 0.3% of total revenue, stemmed from court fines, traffic penalties, and forfeitures. The increase was attributed to higher fines and a surge in forfeiture cases, particularly following amendments to the Dutiable Commodities Ordinance. Looking ahead, the government anticipates further revenue growth from traffic-related penalties despite an expected overall decline in fine income for 2026-27.

Former President of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, Norman Chan, proposed four major recommendations to promote the internationalization of the Renminbi during an interview, including "capital connectivity," dual-currency trading of Hong Kong stocks, establishing a "cross-currency trading" mechanism, and setting up a "Renminbi Internationalization Fund." He believes that these measures can not only facilitate the internationalization of the Renminbi but also strengthen Hong Kong's position as an international financial center. Chan emphasized that Hong Kong can still play an important role in the country's financial development

The CICC report pointed out that Hong Kong stocks have performed poorly overall since February, with the Hang Seng TECH Index experiencing a significant decline, dragging down the performance of Hong Kong stocks. It is expected that the funding environment for Hong Kong stocks in 2026 will be difficult to exceed that of 2025 and may be worse than that of A-shares. Although the Federal Reserve may cut interest rates, the impact on Hong Kong stocks remains uncertain. The IPO and refinancing activities in Hong Kong are active, with an expected scale reaching 1.1 trillion yuan, far exceeding the funding needs of 2025

The United States and Israel have launched military actions against Iran. Financial Secretary Paul Chan stated that this will have a significant impact on the financial markets, and market fluctuations are inevitable. However, he believes that funds in Hong Kong can flow freely in and out, and with a stable exchange rate, Hong Kong can serve as a "safe haven." Paul Chan mentioned that Hong Kong must work hard to do its job well and assist good companies in coming to Hong Kong. Additionally, Saudi Arabia is increasingly interested in diversifying its asset allocation, which presents development opportunities for local consulting and construction companies

Hong Kong stocks are affected by the Middle East conflict, with increased volatility in the short term. After rebounding last week, the Hang Seng Index has once again fallen below multiple moving averages, showing a weakened overall performance. It is expected that Hong Kong stocks will open lower this morning, possibly retreating to the 26,300 level. Market risk aversion is high, and attention should be paid to the impact of the National People's Congress on economic policy. Multiple uncertainties may lead Hong Kong stocks to continue to search for support

The Financial Secretary Paul Chan recently stated on a television program that there is not much direct trade and investment between Hong Kong and Iran, but the ongoing conflict has created significant uncertainty globally, which is expected to lead to greater volatility in the financial markets. He emphasized that the government has sufficient contingency plans in place to respond. Chan estimated that due to the impact of the Middle East conflict, financial market volatility is relatively high, capital flows may shift more rapidly, and there is uncertainty, with local funds possibly seeking a "safe haven" in Hong Kong. The Hong Kong SAR government must be well-prepared and handle financial risks carefully, as it already has adequate contingency plans

$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)

Another day protected by southbound capital! 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.
