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.

Have you been paying attention to shares of StoneX Group Inc. (SNEX)? Shares have been on the move with the stock up 4.6% over the past month. The stock hit a new 52-week high of $84.47 in the previous session. StoneX Group Inc. has gained 12% since the start of the year compared to the 16.6% move for the Zacks Finance sector and the 11.2% return for the Zacks Financial - Miscellaneous Services industry.
What's Driving the Outperformance?
The stock has an impressive record of positive earnings surprises, as it hasn't missed our earnings consensus estimate in any of the last four quarters. In its last earnings report on August 6, 2024, StoneX Group reported EPS of $1.91 versus consensus estimate of $1.78.
For the current fiscal year, StoneX Group is expected to post earnings of $7.39 per share on $3.33 billion in revenues. This represents a -0.81% change in EPS on a 27.52% change in revenues. For the next fiscal year, the company is expected to earn $7.40 per share on $3.27 billion in revenues. This represents a year-over-year change of 0.14% and -1.81%, respectively.
Valuation Metrics
StoneX Group may be at a 52-week high right now, but what might the future hold for the stock? A key aspect of this question is taking a look at valuation metrics in order to determine if the company is due for a pullback from this level.
On this front, we can look at the Zacks Style Scores, as these give investors a variety of ways to comb through stocks (beyond looking at the Zacks Rank of a security). These styles are represented by grades running from A to F in the categories of Value, Growth, and Momentum, while there is a combined VGM Score as well. Investors should consider the style scores a valuable tool that can help you to pick the most appropriate Zacks Rank stocks based on their individual investment style.
StoneX Group has a Value Score of A. The stock's Growth and Momentum Scores are A and F, respectively, giving the company a VGM Score of B.
In terms of its value breakdown, the stock currently trades at 11.2X current fiscal year EPS estimates, which is not in-line with the peer industry average of 11.6X. On a trailing cash flow basis, the stock currently trades at 8X versus its peer group's average of 8.7X. This isn't enough to put the company in the top echelon of all stocks we cover from a value perspective.
Zacks Rank
We also need to consider the stock's Zacks Rank, as this supersedes any trend on the style score front. Fortunately, StoneX Group currently has a Zacks Rank of #2 (Buy) thanks to rising earnings estimates.
Since we recommend that investors select stocks carrying Zacks Rank of 1 (Strong Buy) or 2 (Buy) and Style Scores of A or B, it looks as if StoneX Group fits the bill. Thus, it seems as though StoneX Group shares could have a bit more room to run in the near term.
How Does SNEX Stack Up to the Competition?
Shares of SNEX have been soaring, and the company still appears to be a decent choice, but what about the rest of the industry? One industry peer that looks good is PJT Partners Inc. (PJT). PJT has a Zacks Rank of # 2 (Buy) and a Value Score of B, a Growth Score of A, and a Momentum Score of D.
Earnings were strong last quarter. PJT Partners Inc. beat our consensus estimate by 45.12%, and for the current fiscal year, PJT is expected to post earnings of $4.35 per share on revenue of $1.39 billion.
Shares of PJT Partners Inc. have gained 6.9% over the past month, and currently trade at a forward P/E of 29.91X and a P/CF of 18.19X.
The Financial - Miscellaneous Services industry is in the top 27% of all the industries we have in our universe, so it looks like there are some nice tailwinds for SNEX and PJT, even beyond their own solid fundamental situation.
Zacks Investment Research
DUBAI, Sept 18 (Reuters) - PJT Partners PJT.N, a boutique investment bank, has entered into an agreement to buy Dubai-based advisory firm deNovo Partners, which is led by ex-Morgan Stanley Banker May Nasrallah, deNovo said in a statement on Wednesday.
"This acquisition builds upon the highly successful strategic alliance PJT Partners and deNovo entered into in 2020," deNovo said without disclosing the value of the deal, which is expected to close next month.
Nasrallah will keep her existing leadership role in the Middle East and also become part of PJT's senior team.
Founded in 2010, deNovo has a team of over 20 professionals. Its clients include corporates, government-related entities, and investors.
