Reviewing the performance of popular Hang Seng Index-related warrants and bull certificates, UBS Group’s call warrant (23091) rose by 20% two days later on January 12, 2026, while Bank of China's call warrant (23128) surged by 23% during the same period. Regarding bull certificates, Bank of China’s bull certificate (64016) and bull certificate (63488) increased by 36% and 35%, respectively, compared to the Hang Seng Index's cumulative rise of only 1.47% during the same period. It is evident that under the backdrop of a minor rebound in the Hang Seng Index, related call warrants and bull certificates leveraged their high gearing characteristics to amplify elasticity, providing investors with higher phased returns.

Based on the current market environment and product data, the following high-value Hang Seng Index-related derivatives have been selected.

In terms of call warrants, UBS Group's call warrant (23091) and Bank of China’s call warrant (23128) both have the advantage of the lowest implied volatility, with leverage ratios of 11.9 and an exercise price of 28,341 points. For investors optimistic about the Hang Seng Index breaking through upper resistance levels, these products offer both cost efficiency and flexibility advantages.

For put warrants, Bank of China’s put warrant (21317) stood out with the lowest premium and implied volatility among similar products, featuring a leverage ratio of 15.4 and an exercise price of 25,671 points, making it suitable for strategies aiming to hedge against potential Hang Seng Index pullbacks while maintaining cost stability. UBS Group’s put warrant (21347), with relatively higher leverage at 14.9 and an exercise price of 25,671 points, suits investors preferring high elasticity and willing to bear corresponding risks.

For bull certificates, Bank of China’s bull certificate (69532) has a relatively higher leverage ratio of 24.1 with a recovery price of 26,005 points, while Bank of China’s bull certificate (64765) has a leverage ratio of 22.7 and a recovery price of 25,895 points. Both possess strong elastic potential and suit investors optimistic about the Hang Seng Index holding support levels and continuing its rebound.

For bear certificates, Bank of China’s bear certificate (60102) has a leverage ratio of 24.8 with a recovery price of 27,988 points, while Bank of China’s bear certificate (60164) has a leverage ratio of 23.9 and a recovery price of 28,000 points. These bear certificates have relatively high leverage and suit investors expecting the Hang Seng Index to test upper resistance unsuccessfully and face pullback pressures.

Risk warning: Two key points require attention: Firstly, the Hang Seng Index's RSI has reached 66, approaching the overbought region, and technical indicators show divergence, which may increase short-term volatility. Investors choosing highly leveraged instruments (such as bull/bear certificates with leverage exceeding 20) must closely monitor market trend changes to avoid blindly chasing highs. Secondly, some Hang Seng Index-related derivatives have recovery prices close to the current index level (e.g., bull certificate 64765 with a recovery price of 25,895 points, just below the current Hang Seng Index at 26,999.81 points). If the market reverses, it might trigger mandatory redemption risks. Investors are advised to set strict stop-loss strategies and reasonably control positions.

The Hang Seng Index shows diverging technical signals. Would you choose low-premium call warrants to follow the rebound driven by tech stocks, or position high-leverage put warrants to hedge against market pullbacks? Share your thoughts in the comments!
