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.

Equities in Hong Kong dropped 79 points or 0.4% to 20,017 on Friday morning, breaking a two-session winning streak as trading resumed after the Christmas holidays.
The holiday mood dominated the markets, with many traders experiencing a lack of direction between the year-end and next March when China's parliament begins its annual session in the first week of the month.
Meanwhile, fresh data revealed that China's industrial profits fell by 4.7% yoy from January to November, impacted by further declines in profits from state-owned companies and the private sector.
Still, the Hang Seng is on track for weekly gains, up around 1.5% so far, buoyed by recent support measures on the mainland and Beijing's consideration of issuing a record CNY 3 trillion in special treasury bonds in 2025 to boost an economic turnaround.
The Shanghai Composite fell 0.1% to 3,393, while the Shenzhen Component rose 0.3% to 10,700 on Friday, as mainland stocks struggled to find clear direction amid investor uncertainty over the government’s stimulus policies.
Earlier in the week, the People’s Bank of China chose not to cut interest rates, instead opting to issue CNY 300 billion in one-year medium-term lending facility loans to financial institutions at an unchanged rate of 2%.
The decision was seen by many as underwhelming, with speculation that the central bank may be reserving its policy tools for later action to mitigate economic challenges.
On the economic front, profits at China’s industrial firms fell 4.7% year-on-year to CNY 6,667.48 billion in the first 11 months of 2024, a sharper decline than the 4.3% drop recorded in the prior period.
In corporate news, CATL, the leading EV battery manufacturer, saw its shares fall 0.8% following its plans for a secondary listing in Hong Kong.
JP225 increased to a 10-week high of 40094.00 Index Points.
Over the past 4 weeks, Japan Stock Market Index (JP225) gained 4.51%, and in the last 12 months, it increased 19.49%.
South Korea's inflation is likely to remain below the central bank's target of 2.0% for a fourth consecutive month in December. The median forecast from The Wall Street Journal's poll of nine economists is for a 1.7% on-year rise in the benchmark consumer-price index, compared with the 1.5% increase in November. Higher gasoline prices amid rising USD/KRW rates may result in an uptick in price growth, while sluggish domestic demand for services in an economic slowdown is likely to limit inflationary pressures, iM Securities chief economist Park Sang-hyun says. The December inflation data are due on Dec. 31. (kwanwoo.jun@wsj.com)
