JP Morgan is surprised by the Hong Kong government's increase of over HKD 100 million in luxury property stamp duty, but it is not concerned, believing that this policy will only affect 0.3% of transactions, primarily taxing super-rich individuals to subsidize low-income groups. The additional costs may be offset by rising property prices and could trigger a "fear of missing out" sentiment among buyers. The bank is optimistic about developers such as New World Development, Henderson Land, and Sino Land, as well as rental stocks like Hang Lung Properties and Swire Properties

HSBC's research report indicates that Hong Kong's property market policies will continue to support the real estate market, and real estate investment trusts may welcome new opportunities. HSBC prefers New World Development, Henderson Land, and Sino Land, all of which are given a "Buy" rating, with target prices remaining unchanged. Although some developers' stock prices have fallen due to the increase in stamp duty, the bank believes this pullback is healthy, with limited impact, primarily aimed at increasing fiscal revenue. Overall policies still support the residential market, improving developers' profit outlook

HSBC Research: The budget proposal has a positive stance on the property market, favoring New World Development, Henderson Land, and SINO LAND

The recent rebound in the property market has raised doubts. Despite a good trend in property prices over the past year and a recovery in buyer confidence, the Centaline City Leading Index (CCL) recently reported 149.4 points, an increase of 1.5% in a single week, marking the largest weekly increase in three years. There are still concerns about the future trend of the property market, and historical experience suggests that this may be a signal of the market hitting bottom. Although property prices are still significantly lower than historical highs, the current level is relatively affordable
