The RMB exchange rate is weak, and the mainland's economic recovery is not as fast as expected. The Chinese and Hong Kong stock markets have continued to decline recently. Although the People's Bank of China has made repeated moves in the hope of stabilizing economic growth, their stimulating effect on the stock market has been limited, and the market's trading volume has been muted, reflecting a conservative trend in capital and sending a bearish signal. In addition, the U.S. presidential election has entered a straight line, and the market is concerned that the relationship between China and the United States will become tense again, which will be detrimental to the economy and even the stock market.
