Hong Kong Stocks Give Back Gains

2026-06-30 02:03 By Nicole Aliyah 1 min. read

The Hang Seng Index slipped 0.9%, or 206 points, to 22,819 on Tuesday, giving back part of the previous session’s gains as investors turned cautious despite continued policy support from Beijing.

Sentiment remained subdued after China’s central bank conducted overnight reverse repo operations to maintain ample liquidity in the financial system, with the move providing limited support to equities.

Investors also weighed concerns that Chinese stocks continue to lag the global artificial intelligence-driven rally despite strong advances in overseas markets, reflecting lingering uncertainty over China’s economic recovery.

Losses were led by InSilico Medicine (-10.2%), Trip.com (-2.5%), Pop Mart (-2.0%), Kuaishou Technology (-1.8%), and Techtronic Industries (-1.3%).

Meanwhile, market participants monitored Nexchip Semiconductor’s planned Hong Kong initial public offering, which could raise up to US$890.3 million, as they looked for further policy measures to support growth.

Hong Kong Stocks Rise on Tech Rebound
The Hang Seng Index climbed 1.6%, or 355 points, to close at 23,027 on Monday, rebounding after back-to-back declines in the previous two sessions as bargain hunting emerged in beaten-down technology shares. Gains were led by health technology and retail trade stocks, while sentiment was further supported by firmer global risk appetite after reports that the US and Iran had stepped back from escalating hostilities, boosting US equity futures and encouraging buying across Asian markets. Investor confidence also drew support from stronger-than-expected profits at China's industrial firms in the first five months of the year, confidence in the country's manufacturing sector. However, investors took caution ahead of this week's release of China's official PMI data. Among the top gainers were Tencent (+2.0%), Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (+6.0%), Meituan (+5.3%), Xiaomi (+2.1%), and AIA (+2.0%).

Hong Kong Stocks Drop on Tech Weakness
The Hang Seng Index fell 1.8%, or 405 points, to close at 22,672 on Friday, extending its losses as a broad selloff in artificial intelligence and semiconductor-related stocks weighed on sentiment across regional markets. The cautious mood followed renewed weakness in global technology shares after overnight declines on Wall Street. Investors remained cautious despite the Hong Kong debut of Apple supplier Lingyi iTech, whose HK$8.3 billion IPO underscored continued interest in AI-related listings but failed to improve broader market sentiment. Technology stocks led the decline, while financial and producer manufacturing shares also came under pressure. Among the notable laggards were Tencent (-2.0%), AIA (-1.8%), Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (-6.8%), Meituan (-3.0%), and Kingboard Laminates (-5.2%).
