The US stock market adjusted significantly overnight, mainly because the market was worried that US President Trump's tax cut policy would aggravate the fiscal deficit. However, the recent correlation between Hong Kong stocks and US stock trends is low, and the impact is not expected to be significant. The Hong Kong stock market has continued to be strong recently, mainly due to the interest rate cuts in the Mainland stimulating Chinese stocks and driven by corporate performance. The current low interbank interest rate reflects ample funds, and coupled with the expectation of policy support from the Mainland, the market remains relatively optimistic. The Hang Seng Index may face resistance at the 24,000 mark, but has strong support at the 23,000 mark, and is expected to fluctuate and improve in the future.
European stock markets fell across the board, with UK, French and German stocks falling 0.54%, 0.58% and 0.51% respectively.
