Outlook for the Future
Huatai Securities believes that profit expectations for the Hang Seng Tech Index have recently shown signs of bottoming out. The upward revision trend in profit expectations is most prominent in the non-ferrous metals industry, with the power and new energy industries also seeing significant upward revisions. Regarding the future trend of Hong Kong stocks, Huatai Securities believes that there may be fluctuations in the market this week, but the probability of returning to previous lows is low.
China Merchants Securities (Hong Kong) believes that benefiting from easing geopolitical risks, a stronger Renminbi, and support from low valuations, sentiment in the Hong Kong stock market has improved, leading to a rebound. However, factors such as weak domestic demand and uneven investment structure in the macroeconomic fundamentals are unlikely to become the core drivers for sustained market upside in the short term. Currently, the structural differentiation between 'new' and 'old' industries is intensifying. The high growth momentum in hard tech sectors represented by AI commercialization and computing power infrastructure has become the main focus of the market. Additionally, upward revisions in earnings forecasts and large-scale buybacks by internet platforms have provided rebound potential for these sectors.
