The Hang Seng Index opened 449 points higher at 21,363 points, and then rose 602 points to 21,517 points at one point. It rose 502 points or 2.4% for the day to 21,417 points; the Technology Index rose 114 points or 2.34% to 5,015 points. The main board traded HK$253.3 billion .
The Hong Kong stock market rose for five consecutive days, with a cumulative increase of 1,589 points. Adjustments are expected. If the Hang Seng Index can hold the 100-DMA (21,210), it is expected to test the resistance of the 50-DMA (22,716) after the adjustment. Although the weakening of the US dollar is also beneficial to the Hong Kong stock market, the ongoing Sino-US struggle is unlikely to be resolved in a short period of time. It is expected that the market will have a greater chance of fluctuating between the 50-DMA and 100-DMA.
The United States recently said it remains optimistic about reaching a trade agreement with China and will exempt some products from reciprocal tariffs, but its policy toward China changes every day. As the outlook for Sino-US trade remains unclear, investors may take advantage of the rebound to reduce their holdings or shift their positions, hindering the rise of US stocks. Investors should avoid stocks that are at the center of the trade war, while retail domestic demand stocks, high-dividend stocks, and some technology stocks such as robot or driverless concept stocks are worth paying attention to.
European stock markets performed well across the board, with UK, French and German stocks rising 2.14%, 2.37% and 2.85% respectively.

The S&P 500 rose 1.79% at one point, and the Nasdaq rose 2.46%.
