Hong Kong Stocks Flat Despite Softer US Inflation
The Hang Seng Index edged down to 0.2%, or 44 points, to close at 25,397 on Thursday, as investors remained cautious following the previous session’s decline despite softer US inflation data that reinforced expectations for a more accommodative Federal Reserve policy. Asian markets were generally firmer after US consumer price data eased inflation concerns and supported expectations for a more accommodative monetary-policy outlook. However, gains in Hong Kong were limited as investors continued to assess weakness in technology shares and geopolitical risks. Technology stocks remained a major focus as investors digested Tencent’s second-quarter results and continued to assess developments in China’s artificial-intelligence sector. Tech performance was mixed, with Lenovo (20.2%), Z.AI Co. (9.0%), and MiniMax (5.4%) gaining, while Tencent (-4.5%) and Xiaomi (-1.8%) declined. Investors also monitored upcoming corporate earnings and developments in China's technology sector.

Hong Kong Stocks Slip as Investors Turn Cautious
The Hang Seng Index slipped 0.8%, to close at 25,440 on Wednesday, as fading hopes for a US-Iran deal and caution ahead of the latest US inflation data weighed on investor sentiment. Oil prices climbed to a one-week high amid tensions surrounding the Strait of Hormuz, raising concerns over inflation and global growth. The decline also followed losses on Wall Street. In the region, Hong Kong technology stocks remained under pressure, with investors closely watching Tencent’s second-quarter earnings for signs of growth in gaming, advertising and AI investments. Meanwhile, plans to expand the Hang Seng Tech Index from 30 to 50 constituents could increase exposure to emerging sectors such as AI and robotics. Hong Kong’s IPO market also remained in focus, with Shein reportedly preparing to launch its Hong Kong IPO, supporting optimism over the city’s capital-market activity. Notable laggards included Tencent (-2.0%), Meituan (-1.5%), Xiaomi (-1.1%), AIA (-0.3%), and Kuaishou (-2.6%).
