The Hang Seng Index opened 422 points higher at 26,982 and maintained its upward trend, reaching a high of 27,111, a gain of 551 points. It closed the day up 467 points, or 1.75%, at 27,027. The Technology Index rose 71 points, or 1.33%, to 5,417. Main board turnover was HK$255.1 billion.


As expected, Hong Kong stocks performed well. If it can quickly fill the gap from last Monday's (January 2nd) drop from 27,100 to 27,384, the Hang Seng Index has a chance to reach 27,500 this week, and could then challenge the recent high of 28,056 reached on January 29th. However, whether it can stabilize for two days is crucial to determine its future momentum; for now, the Hang Seng Index is expected to trade within a range. Furthermore, due to the Lunar New Year holiday next week, Hong Kong stocks will only be open for one and a half days, so turnover is expected to gradually decrease in the middle of this week.


European stocks performed well, with UK, French, and German stocks rising 0.16%, 0.6%, and 1.19%, respectively.


After a strong rebound on Friday, US stocks rallied on Monday in the absence of new catalysts. The Dow Jones Industrial Average opened 67 points lower and briefly dipped below the 50,000 mark, falling as much as 278 points to a low of 49,837. It then broke through resistance, rising to 50,219, a gain of 103 points, before closing at a slightly new all-time high. The S&P 500 briefly rose 0.69%, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite jumped as much as 1.23%.


At the close, the Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 20 points, or 0.03%, to 50,135; the S&P 500 gained 32 points, or 0.47%, to 6,964; and the Nasdaq Composite gained 207 points, or 0.9%, to 23,238.


The US dollar index fell as much as 0.86% to 96.79. Following the Japanese House of Representatives election, Japanese officials stated they were monitoring the currency market, causing the yen to rise 1.08% to 155.52 against the dollar. The euro rose 0.96% to $1.193. Bitcoin continued to fluctuate, having fallen as much as 3.4% to a low of $68,263 yesterday, before slightly recovering to above $71,000. Spot gold prices rebounded above $5,000 per ounce, rising as much as 2.51% to $5,085.92.


Following the ruling coalition's landslide victory in the House of Representatives election, Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi is now more likely to push through her aggressive fiscal stimulus policies. Katsuya Okada, a heavyweight member of the Constitutional Democratic Party and considered a pro-China figure, failed to retain his long-serving seat in Mie Prefecture's 3rd constituency in this House of Representatives election. Japanese stocks rebounded on Monday, with the Nikkei index surging as much as 3,083 points (5.68%) to a high of 57,337, before closing up 3.89% at 56,363, a record high. JPMorgan Securities predicts the Nikkei will reach 61,000 by the end of the year.

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 ...
