Risk Warning on Trading HK Stocks
Despite Hong Kong's robust legal and regulatory framework, its stock market still faces unique risks and challenges, such as currency fluctuations due to the Hong Kong dollar's peg to the US dollar and the impact of mainland China's policy changes and economic conditions on Hong Kong stocks.
HK Stock Trading Fees and Taxation
Trading costs in the Hong Kong stock market include transaction fees, stamp duty, settlement charges, and currency conversion fees for foreign investors. Additionally, taxes may apply based on local regulations.
HK Non-Essential Consumer Goods Industry
The Hong Kong stock market encompasses non-essential consumption sectors like automotive, education, tourism, catering, and apparel. Of the 643 listed companies, 35% are mainland Chinese, making up 65% of the total market capitalization. Thus, it's heavily influenced by the Chinese economy.
HK Real Estate Industry
In recent years, the real estate and construction sector's share in the Hong Kong stock index has notably decreased. Nevertheless, as of 2022, it retains around 10% market share, covering real estate development, construction engineering, investment, and property management.

Markets have continued to unwind USD longs as US Treasuries had another strong session, and a delay in tariff announcements is fuelling some tentative optimism. That said, we could start to see growing pressure on CAD and MXN, which are facing the most tangible tariff threat at the moment. Today, expect more of the same from ECB speakers in Davos.
The USD/CHF pair struggles to capitalize on the previous day's modest bounce from the 0.9035-0.9030 area, or over a two-week low and oscillates in a narrow range during the Asian session on Thursday. Spot prices currently trade around the 0.9060 region, nearly unchanged for the day amid subdued US Dollar (USD) price action.
The USD Index (DXY), which tracks the Greenback against a basket of currencies, struggles to capitalize on the overnight bounce from the monthly low amid bets that the Federal Reserve (Fed) will cut interest rates twice this year. That said, an uptick in the US Treasury bond yields acts as a tailwind for the buck, which, in turn, is seen lending support to the USD/CHF pair.
Meanwhile, Swiss National Bank (SNB) Chairman Martin Schlegel's ultra-dovish comments, opening doors for negative interest rates, might continue to weigh on the Swiss Franc. Apart from this, the underlying bullish tone around the equity markets could undermine the safe-haven CHF and further contribute to limiting any meaningful downside for the USD/CHF pair.
Traders also seem reluctant and might opt to wait on the sidelines ahead of US President Donald Trump's speech at the World Economic Forum for more concrete announcements on tariffs. This, in turn, could infuse volatility in the global financial markets and influence the USD price dynamics, which, in turn, should provide some meaningful impetus to the USD/CHF pair.
Traders on Thursday will further take cues from the release of the US Weekly Initial Jobless Claims data, due later during the early North American session. Nevertheless, the aforementioned fundamental backdrop warrants caution before positioning for an extension of the recent pullback from the 0.9200 mark, or the highest level since May 2024 touched earlier this month.
India’s government is evaluating options ranging from a trade deal, cutting tariffs and importing more goods from the US if US President Donald Trump follows through with threatened trade action.
Officials in the Narendra Modi-led administration have sketched out various scenarios to counter any steps a new Trump administration may take to narrow India’s trade surplus with the US which was US$35.3 billion (RM156.6 billion) for the year ended March 31, people familiar with the matter said. The US was India’s largest trading partner for the period, data from India’s Commerce Ministry showed.
Among the options discussed, the government could buy more whiskey, steel and oil from the US, the people said, asking not to be identified as the talks are private. It could also reduce some import tariffs, with officials drawing up a list of likely products, such as bourbon whiskey and farm goods like pecan nuts, they said.
One of the proposals being considered is to reduce duties on good imported from US states that are politically important for the Republican party, one of the people said.
The plans under discussion are part of India’s larger strategy to avoid any confrontation with Trump, and also benefit from any potential US-China trade war, the people said. Bloomberg News reported on Tuesday that New Delhi is set to take back at least 18,000 illegal Indian immigrants from the US to help placate the Trump administration.
An email seeking comments from the Trade Ministry spokesperson was not immediately answered. The plans have not been finalised and are still under discussions, the people said.
On his first day in office on Monday, Trump said he would slap a 25% tariff on Mexico and Canada by Feb 1 while holding off on unveiling China-specific tariffs. He also threatened countries in the BRICS group of developing countries with increased tariffs.
Indian officials are also considering a limited trade deal with the US under one of its scenarios, people familiar with the matter said. New Delhi had tried unsuccessfully to implement this during the first Trump administration.
The plan under discussion would include reducing some “most-favoured nation” tariffs, which are imposed on countries with which India doesn’t have a bilateral trade deal.
Here are more details of the scenarios being discussed, according to people familiar with the matter:
India could consider buying more goods from the US in sectors including soybean, dairy, vehicles, medical instruments, and aircraft
Electronics, high-tech machinery, textiles, footwear and chemicals are among sectors to benefit if China is slapped with higher tariffs by the US and curbs on access to advanced technology
India expects the new Trump administration to pressure the country on issues including data regulations, intellectual property rules and e-commerce
Across the board tariffs of 10%-20% on all countries would help boost India’s exports of auto components and metals
The European natural gas market surged higher yesterday with TTF settling more than 4.5% higher on the day and above EUR50/MWh – the highest level since the first trading day of 2025, ING’s commodity analysts Warren Patterson and Ewa Manthey note.
Germany looks to subsidize the refill of gas storage
“The catalyst for the move appears to be an outage at the Freeport LNG export terminal in the US, which has been dealing with power issues which coincide with the freezing weather conditions the region is currently experiencing. Freeport, which has a capacity of a little more than 20bcm, said the plant will remain shut until power to the plant stabilizes.”
“Europe needs to pull in more LNG this winter with the loss of Russian pipeline flows through Ukraine, along with also stronger demand. EU gas storage has now fallen to 59% and the region will need to try to make sure it stays above the European Commission’s target of 50% full by 1 February.”
“In addition, Germany is potentially looking at subsidizing the refill of gas storage ahead of the 2025/26 winter, a discussion we are likely to see more of across the EU with the TTF forward curve providing little incentive for players to store gas for the next winter with summer 2025 prices trading at a premium to 2025/26 winter prices.”
