The Hang Seng Index opened 220 points higher at 26,995, then rose as much as 350 points to 27,126 before encountering resistance and falling back, dropping as much as 343 points to 26,431. It subsequently stabilized, closing up 59 points or 0.22% at 26,834. The Technology Index fell 59 points or 1.06% to 5,467. Main board turnover was HK$335.1 billion.


Yesterday, the Hang Seng Index closed just below the 20-day moving average (26,838), which will likely lead investors to wait for a gradual pullback to around 25,000 to 26,000 points before considering short-term rebound strategies. However, if it breaks back above the 10-day moving average (27,065), investors will likely remain on the sidelines. Therefore, the Hang Seng Index will likely remain in the middle or slightly higher of the 26,000-27,000 range for now. The risk is not significant, but there is also no clear upward momentum. At this stage, it is advisable to observe the situation and gradually build positions when a better entry point is found.
