5. Opening Summary
Hong Kong equities kicked off Thursday’s session on the front foot, with the Hang Seng adding over 250 points to reclaim the mid-24,000 zone. A broad risk-on mood, aided by steadier global markets, lifted 40 of the benchmark’s 50 constituents and kept sellers on the sidelines.
Chipmakers set the early tone: Hua Hong Semi surged 4.6%, and SMIC climbed more than 3%, propelling the Hang Seng Tech Index above 4,700. Tencent and Alibaba also contributed, rising about 2% and 1.5% respectively, while Meituan traded flat amid cautious consumer sentiment.
Among individual names, KB Laminates spiked over 9% after upbeat earnings guidance, and gold producers Lingbao and Laopu Gold rallied roughly 8% as bullion steadied. Conversely, dairy firm Youran slipped nearly 3% and PetroChina eased amid softer crude prices.
The morning’s leadership cluster included semiconductors, gold miners and industrial suppliers, hinting at a rotation toward cyclical and hard-asset plays. No major IPOs debuted today, but primary market chatter stayed active as investors positioned for upcoming tech listings.
