Investment 4/10/2024
Hong Kong stocks retreated after six consecutive gains. The Hang Seng Index opened 40 points higher at 22,484 points and then came under pressure. It fell 1,001 points to 21,442 points at one point. The decline narrowed in the afternoon, falling 330 points or 1.47% for the whole day to 22,113 points. The Technology Index fell 178 points or 3.46% to 4,978 points. Main board transaction volume was HK$310.3 billion.
The index has risen by more than 4,000 points in just a few days, and capital profits have been taken. It is normal for the market to undergo technical adjustments. I believe there will be some support for the drop to 21,000 points, and 20,400 will be even more supportive. The overall sentiment of the market has improved. The market is looking forward to further policy news from the mainland, as well as whether the consumption and investment markets will pick up. The market outlook is still improving repeatedly. Those with heavy goods can consider taking profits in stages, while investors without goods can wait for the price to fall. Consider entering the market at 21,000 points. The uptrend may last until around the end of this month, before the U.S. election, which is also the year-end date for most funds. In the best case scenario, the Hang Seng Index may reach 24,500 points.
European stock markets fell across the board, with British, French and German stocks closing down 0.1%, 1.32% and 0.78% respectively.
Although the U.S. service industry data performed satisfactorily, tensions in the Middle East still plagued the market. U.S. stocks came under pressure on Thursday. After the Dow opened 96 points lower, the decline once expanded to a maximum of 348 points and reached a low of 41,847 points; the S&P 500 fell 0.56% at one point. The performance of the Nasdaq, which is dominated by technology stocks, has been volatile, once falling 0.55%, and international oil prices soared by more than half.
At the close of U.S. stocks, the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 184 points, or 0.44%, to 42,011 points; the S&P Index fell 9 points, or 0.17%, to 5,699 points; and the Nasdaq Composite fell 6 points, or 0.04%, to 17,918 points.
