After opening 56 points lower at 19,390 points, the Hang Seng Index once rose 36 points to 19,483 points. Later, the selling pressure reappeared and once fell 336 points to a low of 19,111 points. The decline narrowed in the afternoon and fell 167 points or 0.86% for the whole day to 19,279 points, falling for three days in a row; the technology index fell 47 points, or 1.09%, to 4,307 points.  Main board transaction volume was HK$168.3 billion.


 Since the Hong Kong stock market fell below 20,000 points, the technical trend has continued to be weak, and it is expected that there will be a chance to test the earlier low near 19,000 points.  Mainly because the market is worried that Sino-US relations will become tense after US President-elect Trump officially takes office in the White House on January 20; coupled with the recent sudden move of the Biden administration, Tencent and other companies were included in the "China "Military Enterprise List" made investors very cautious about entering the market, which in turn made the rebound of Hong Kong stocks weak.


 European stock markets developed individually, with British stocks rebounding 0.07%, French stocks and German stocks closing down 0.49% and 0.05%.


 Global bond interest rates first rose and then retreated on Wednesday, while U.S. stocks also performed mixedly and closed with mixed results.  The minutes of the U.S. Federal Reserve's interest rate meeting last month showed that most officials expressed concerns about inflation and the possible impact of President-elect Trump's policies. In view of the increased risk of rising inflation, the Fed will slow down its pace of interest rate cuts.  After the Dow opened 13 points higher, it turned around and fell as much as 200 points, reaching a low of 42,327 points. It then rose 127 points and reached a high of 42,656 points. The S&P 500 fell 0.58%, and the Nasdaq, which is dominated by technology stocks, fell as much as 0.93%. .


 At the close of the U.S. market, investors' concerns about inflation were downplayed. The Dow Jones Industrial Average still rose 106 points, or 0.25%, to 42,635 points; the S&P Index rose 9 points, or 0.16%, to 5,918 points; the Nasdaq Composite fell slightly, 10 points, or 0.06%. It was quoted at 19,478 points.


 The U.S. dollar index rose up to 0.77% to 109.38; the euro retreated 0.65% to $1.0273; the yen fell 0.32% to 158.55 per dollar.

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. European stocks traded mixed, with the UK FTSE 100 rising slightly by 0.11%, whil...

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%. With the Middle East situation unresolved and investors awaiting the implementation of peace talks, international oil prices remained high, putting pressure on US stocks on Thursday. The Dow Jo...

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. It closed the day up 62 points, or 0.24%, at 25,978; the Tech Index rose 36 points, or 0.75%, to 4,902. Total market turnover was HK$236.7 billion. 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 ...
