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.

Genius Group Limited G experienced a significant boost in its stock value, climbing 20% in pre-market trading on Wednesday, as per Benzinga Pro. This surge followed the company’s announcement to adopt Bitcoin as its main treasury asset. As per a press release, Genius Group plans to allocate 90% of its current and future reserves to Bitcoin.
The Singapore-based company’s shares initially soared by 50% before stabilizing at a 10% increase from Monday’s close, trading at $0.70 per share. Genius Group intends to acquire $120 million worth of Bitcoin, which is approximately 1,380 BTC at current market prices, for long-term holding. Additionally, the company will introduce Bitcoin payment options on its Edtech platform.
This strategic decision follows a recent restructuring of the company’s board to include experts in crypto and Web3 technologies. Genius Group is following in the footsteps of MicroStrategy , which has amassed 279,420 BTC as a hedge against inflation. Other companies, such as Semler Scientific and Tokyo-based Metaplanet, have also adopted similar strategies.
Thomas Power, a director at Genius Group, stated, “We see Bitcoin as being the primary store of value that will power these exponential technologies,” endorsing the strategy pioneered by Michael Saylor and MicroStrategy.
Bitcoin has recently seen a surge, with the market predicting it to reach $90,000 mark. At the time of writing, it was trading around $87,753.08.

The S&P 500 Index Wednesday closed up +2.53%, the Dow Jones Industrials Index closed up +3.57%, and the Nasdaq 100 Index closed up +2.74%.
Stocks on Wednesday closed sharply higher, with the S&P 500, the Dow Jones Industrials, and the Nasdaq 100 posting new all-time highs. Stocks soared after Republican candidate Trump won the presidential election. Republicans also gained control of the Senate, but control of the House was still undecided, with many races too close to call. Bank stocks climbed based on expectations of reduced regulations from the Trump administration. Also, health insurers focused on the Medicare market rallied on the view that the Trump administration will pay higher rates to insurers that provide private versions of the US health program for seniors.
The dollar rallied to a 4-month high on the election news, and the 10-year T-note yield jumped to a 4-month high on the prospects of higher inflation due to Trump's policies of tax cuts and increased tariffs.
Bitcoin U Wednesday closed down -27.5 ticks. The 10-year T-note yield rose +15.5 bp to 4.426%. Dec T-notes Wednesday sank to a 4-month low, and the 10-year T-note yield surged to a 4-month high of 4.477%. T-notes plunged Wednesday as President-elect Trump's policies of low taxes and high tariffs are expected to boost growth and inflation, which are hawkish factors for Fed policy. An increase in inflation expectations also hammered T-notes after the 10-year breakeven inflation rate climbed +10 bp and posted a 6-1/4 month high of 2.430%. Wednesday's rally in the S&P 500 to a new record high also reduced safe-haven demand for T-notes.
T-notes recovered from their worst levels Wednesday on strong demand for the Treasury's $25 billion auction of 30-year T-bonds that had a bid-to-cover ratio of 2.64, well above the 10-auction average of 2.40 and the highest in more than 6 years.
European government bond yields on Wednesday were mixed. The 10-year German bund yield fell -2.0 bp to 2.405%. The 10-year UK gilt yield climbed to a 1-year high of 4.594% and finished up +3.3 bp at 4.563%.
The Eurozone Oct composite PMI was revised upward by +0.3 to 50.0 from the previously reported 49.7.
Eurozone Sep PPI eased to -3.4% y/y from -2.3% y/y in Aug, right on expectations.
German Sep factory orders rose +4.2% m/m, stronger than expectations of +1.5% m/m.
ECB Vice President Guindos said global economic output would be weaker, price pressure would be stronger, and established trade flows would be disrupted if US President-elect Trump implemented the kinds of import tariffs he threatened during his campaign.
Swaps are discounting the chances at 100% for a -25 bp rate cut by the ECB at its December 12 policy meeting and at 22% for a -50 bp rate cut at the same meeting.
US Stock Movers
Bank stocks soared on expectations that the Trump administration will loosen regulations for the industry. Discover Financial Services soared by +21%, Synchrony Financial rallied +19%, Capital One Financial rallied +15%, and Wells Fargo rallied +14%. Goldman Sachs rallied more than +13% to lead gainers in the Dow Jones Industrials. Morgan Stanley and JPMorgan Chase rallied +12%. Bank of America and Citigroup rallied +9%.
Cryptocurrency-related stocks rallied sharply with the price of Bitcoin up more than +9% at a record high. Coinbase Global soared by +32%. Riot Platforms rallied +27%, Marathon Digital rallied +20%, and MicroStrategy rallied +14%.
Chip stocks climbed Wednesday. GlobalFoundries rallied +14%. Intel rallied +8%. Texas Instruments and Micron Technology rallied +7%. ON Semiconductor , Analog Devices , Nvidia , Marvell Technology , Qualcomm , and NXP Semiconductors NV all rallied by at least +3%.
Tesla rallied by +14.8% to lead gainers in the Nasdaq 100 on speculation the company will be a major beneficiary of Trump's return to the White House.
US health insurers focused on the Medicare market rallied on expectations that the Trump administration will pay higher rates to companies that provide private versions of the US health program for seniors. Humana and CVS Health rallied by about +12%. UnitedHealth Group rallied +6%.
Qualys Inc rallied +25% after reporting Q3 adjusted EPS of $1.56, stronger than the consensus of $1.33, and raising its full-year adjusted EPS forecast to $5.81-$5.91 from a previous forecast of $5.46-$5.62, above the consensus of $5.59.
Charles River Laboratories International rallied +14% after reporting Q3 revenue of $1.01 billion, better than the consensus of $976.7 million.
Globus Medical rallied +10% after reporting Q3 net sales of $625.7 million, stronger than the consensus of $603.9 million, and raising its full-year net sales forecast to $2.49 billion-$2.50 billion from a previous forecast of $2.47 billion-$2.49 billion, better than the consensus of $2.48 billion.
Super Micro Computer fell -17% to lead losers in the S&P 500 and Nasdaq 100 after reporting preliminary Q1 net sales of $5.9 billion-$6.0 billion, weaker than the consensus of $6.47 billion and forecast Q2 net sales of $5.5 billion-$6.1 billion, well below the consensus of $6.79 billion.
Home builders sank as the jump in the 10-year T-note yield to a 4-month high pushed mortgage rates higher and is likely to dampen housing demand. As a result, Lennar fell -4.19%, DR Horton fell -3.13%, PulteGroup fell -2.40%, and Toll Brothers fell -0.78%.
US health insurers that sell private versions of Medicaid were under pressure because of the expectation that the Trump administration will pull back on funding. As a result, Centene , HCA Healthcare , and Molina Healthcare showed losses of between -1% and -4%.
Exact Sciences fell -23% after reporting Q3 revenue of $708.1 million, below the consensus of $716.9 million, and cutting its full-year revenue forecast to $2.73 billion-$2.75 billion from a previous forecast of $2.81 billion-$2.85 billion, weaker than the consensus of $2.83 billion.
Coupang fell -10% after reporting Q3 retail net sales of $6.14 billion, below the consensus of $6.24 billion.
Five Below fell -9% after Bank of America Global Research downgraded the stock to underperform from neutral with a price target of $75.
