The Hang Seng Index opened 170 points lower at 17,845 points and then the selling pressure continued. It closed at the lowest level of the day, falling 287 points or 1.59% to 17,727 points. The Technology Index fell 49 points or 1.35% to 3,622 points. Main board turnover was HK$94.2 billion.


 Yesterday, the Hang Seng Index completely covered the rising gap last Friday (17,864 to 18,020), fell below the 20-DMA (17,915), and even fell below the 10-DMA (17,820). The support of the 100-DMA (17,536) is extremely critical, and there is an opportunity for further upward movement in the market outlook, 17,000 points is the support below. Although the Hang Seng Index once rose above the 18,000 level earlier, it later turned back and fell, and there was no matching transaction, indicating that this may be a false breakthrough. 


If the Federal Reserve is expected to cut interest rates, the US exchange rate index may weaken, which will support the stabilization of the RMB exchange rate, which will be beneficial to Hong Kong stocks. However, the mainland's economic growth is not as good as expected, and the market is hoping that more policies may be introduced. However, there is still no news for the time being, and the momentum of Hong Kong stocks is limited.
