Hong Kong stocks turned to decline last Thursday, a day with large transactions. It was a reasonable correction after a sharp rise, and the upward trend was resumed on Friday (14th). Looking back, the Hang Seng Index broke through the 21,000-point resistance with a large white candlestick last week, and further approached the top of the large sideways zone at 22,700 points last week. This week, as long as the Hang Seng Index holds the 10-DMA (22,421), if it breaks through the high of 23,241 points in October last year and stabilizes, it will be confirmed that it has broken through the large sideways zone, and the mid-line measured increase can reach 30,000 points. However, if the Hong Kong stock market undergoes a short-term adjustment due to severe overbought conditions, the Hang Seng Index will have support at the low of 21,500 points. The market is gradually digesting the news related to tariffs, and coupled with the expectation that the two sessions in the mainland may introduce policies to support the economy, Hong Kong stocks are still expected to rise in February. However, once we enter the March earnings season, if economic data and policies are not as expected, the market may experience a correction.
