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.

Hyzon Motors Inc. HYZN, a supplier of zero-emission hydrogen fuel cell-powered heavy vehicles, has announced the start of production (SOP) for its advanced Class 8 200kW Fuel Cell Electric Truck (FCET). This milestone marks the company’s ability to commence production of the 200kW FCET through its partnership with North Carolina-based Fontaine Modification.
Per Parker Meeks, CEO of Hyzon, the Class 8 200kW FCET represents the culmination of years of engineering, which has evolved from a prototype into a fully production-ready vehicle that enables fleet operators to cut emissions without compromising power, range, or reliability.
With the completion of its first 200kW Class 8 truck using production-grade components and processes, Hyzon is transitioning its truck platform from prototype to series production. This achievement coincides with HYZN’s anticipation of declaring SOP for its 200kW single-stack Fuel Cell System at its Bolingbrook facility, one of the largest integrated fuel cell system production plants in the United States and the only facility launching a 200kW+ single-stack fuel system into serial production, in the coming weeks.
As part of the FCET’s development, Fontaine Modification will handle vehicle assembly and production in Charlotte, NC. The company provides kits to Fontaine for the fuel cell system, battery packs and hydrogen storage systems. Fontaine integrates these components into vehicle chassis to ensure each truck is road-ready. Fontaine has confirmed that all equipment, documentation and processes required for series production are in place as part of the SOP.
The Class 8 200kW FCET boasts a single-stack 200kW fuel cell system that is 30% lighter and smaller, and 25% more cost-effective than the dual 110kW systems. This breakthrough design delivers a compact, high-performance vehicle tailored for heavy-duty road transport. Hyzon also expects to achieve ISO 9001 certification, the globally recognized quality management standard, by the fourth quarter of 2024.

Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. NSANY has informed its dealers that it is set to reduce production of the Rogue and Frontier by up to 40,000 units in September and October. This decision aims to address inventory and oversupply issues, as dealers face challenges in boosting sales and profits, even though the Rogue remains Nissan's top-selling model.
Rogue sales have declined 4.5% in the first half of the year compared with the same period last year. Although Frontier sales are up 17.1%, both models still have supply levels higher than the industry average.
Per Automotive News, Nissan notified suppliers last month about the output cuts at its Smyrna, TN and Canton, MS, plants. Production of the Rogue has been scaled back from five days a week to four, a change set to continue until the end of October. Frontier production has also been reduced by a day and will last until March 31, 2025.
Nissan advised dealers in May to sell vehicles at a loss to reduce growing inventories, which reached a near 100-day supply. While this strategy has helped lower inventory levels closer to industry standards, it hasn't fully solved the problem, and dealer profitability has taken a hit.
Along the same lines, Honda Motor Co., Ltd. HMC temporarily suspended production at its three factories in Wuhan, operated with Dongfeng Motor Corp, due to high inventories. The halt began on Aug. 26, 2024, and lasted two weeks. In August, Honda's sales in China fell 44.3% year over year amid rising competition from EV makers. The automaker will also halt production later this year at a Dongfeng Honda factory and one plant of GAC Honda Automobile Co.

The flagship stations will be tactically placed in metropolitan areas in states like Arizona, California, Florida, Georgia, Michigan, New York and Texas. Each station will typically have up to 20 stalls, with some sites offering more to support the increasing number of EVs on the road.
Co-branded by EVgo and GM Energy, these stations will be located near amenities, such as shopping centers, restaurants, coffee shops and other services for drivers’ convenience while they charge their vehicles. The goal is to create a user-friendly and accessible charging experience.
The first flagship station is estimated to open in 2025.

In addition to these flagship stations, EVgo and GM are aiming to install 2,850 DC fast-charging stalls in total. Additional funding has been allocated to enhance the premium experience at these new sites.
By opening their 1,000th fast-charging stall in August 2023, the companies achieved a milestone. They plan to reach 2,000 stalls by the end of 2024. This achievement represents a major step toward their goal to deliver broad access to fast-charging infrastructure for EV drivers.
