The Hang Seng Index opened 111 points lower at 25,814 and continued its downward trend, falling as much as 316 points in the afternoon to a low of 25,609. It closed down 245 points, or 0.94%, at 25,679. The Technology Index fell 112 points, or 2.28%, to 4,827. Total market turnover was HK$262.3 billion. It is anticipated that the US and Iran will not reach a negotiation agreement soon; furthermore, the liquidity drain and the upcoming May Day holiday have contributed to the two consecutive days of decline in Hong Kong stocks. The Hang Seng Index may test the support level of the 250-day moving average (25,404), while the 100-day moving average (26,098) will turn from support to resistance. Investors should not rush into the market now but should adopt a risk-averse strategy, waiting for the Hang Seng Index to potentially fall to the 24,409 level before considering buying on dips to position for a rebound.

The Technology Index fell 98 points, or 1.98%, to 4,865. Total market turnover was HK$255.3 billion. The Hang Seng Index broke below the 16,000-point mark. However, due to the relatively lagging performance of Hong Kong stocks and stable market sentiment, a significant correction has not yet occurred. It is believed that the Hang Seng Index can hold the 250-day moving average (25,349), a key level for bull and bear markets, while facing strong resistance at 27,000 points. European stock markets showed mixed performance, with British and German stocks falling 0.19% and 0.16% respectively, while French stocks rose 0.87%.

The Hang Seng Index opened 181 points lower at 25,733, and once plunged 275 points to a low of 25,639, before recovering its losses, rising as much as 89 points to 26,004.

For the week, the Hang Seng Index fell 182 points, or 0.69%. Hong Kong stocks rebounded on Friday but failed to recover the 26,000-point mark. The Hang Seng Index broke through the descending channel earlier this month with an upward gap (25,254 to 25,668). Last week's short-term correction to this gap followed by a sharp rebound reflects the strong support at this level. Recent geopolitical tensions have fluctuated, causing Hong Kong stocks to trade in a volatile range. Without significant positive or negative news, they are expected to fluctuate between 25,500 and 26,300 points this week. If the market can break through and hold above 26,300 points, it may test the ...
