The Hang Seng Index opened 1 point higher at 25,435, then fluctuated, falling as much as 176 points to 25,257 before recovering in the afternoon to close at its intraday high of 25,540, up 106 points or 0.41%. The Technology Index rose 26 points or 0.47% to 5,581. Main board turnover was HK$193.3 billion.


HSBC Holdings rose 2%, driven by a combination of factors including market confidence in HSBC's internal reforms and positive analyst assessments. The target price is HK$138.


The Hang Seng Index has been declining recently, with turnover exceeding HK$200 billion, reflecting heavy selling pressure. Unless the Hang Seng Index can quickly recover its 50-DMA (26,134), the outlook is not optimistic. Investors should be cautious, lock in profits, protect principal, and avoid assuming that funds will engage in year-end window dressing.


European stocks traded mixed, with the UK FTSE 100 rising 0.14%, while French and German stocks fell 0.37% and 0.13% respectively.


The US Federal Reserve announced its interest rate decision at 3:00 AM Hong Kong time on Thursday, cutting interest rates for the third consecutive time by 0.25 percentage points, lowering the target range for the federal funds rate to between 3.5% and 3.75%, to prevent a sharp deterioration in the job market. The post-meeting statement indicated that the Fed would purchase $40 billion in Treasury bonds over the next 30 days. Chairman Powell told reporters after the meeting that the bond-buying program is likely to remain at a high level in the coming months, and added that if the Trump administration does not implement new tariffs, commodity inflation may peak in the first quarter of next year.


Ahead of the interest rate decision, U.S. stocks traded mixed on Wednesday. The Dow Jones Industrial Average opened 13 points higher, then fell as much as 97 points before rebounding more than 200 points. After the rate decision was released, the Dow's gains widened to over 300 points. Following Powell's remarks, the Dow further extended its gains, jumping as much as 637 points to a high of 48,197, with all three major indices approaching record highs. The S&P 500 briefly turned positive, rising 0.88%. The Nasdaq Composite fell as much as 0.6%, but rose as much as 0.54% after the rate decision.


At the close, the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 497 points, or 1.05%, to 48,057; the S&P 500 rebounded 46 points, or 0.68%, to 6,886; and the Nasdaq Composite gained 77 points, or 0.33%, to 23,654.

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 Hang Seng Index opened 64 points lower at 26,098, and the decline widened to 322 points at one point, reaching a low of 25,840. It closed down 248 points, or 0.94%, at 25,915. 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 ...
