Hong Kong stocks rose 153 points (0.6%) to 26,785, marking a third consecutive day of gains, supported by positive sentiment from U.S. economic data and President Trump's NATO announcement. The Hang Seng is set for a second weekly rise of about 0.3%, despite local inflation hitting a six-month high of 1.4%. Gains were broad-based, led by consumer, tech, and financial sectors, with notable increases from Pop Mart Intl. (6.5%) and Zijin Gold Intl. (4.0%). Investors are awaiting Q1 business sentiment data and December trade figures.
