Tiger Newspress06-25 16:11

I. Market Overview

The Hong Kong market ended lower on Jun 25. The Hang Seng Index (HSI) declined 1.43% to 23,076.91, pressured by losses in heavyweight technology and consumer names. The Hang Seng China Enterprises Index (HSCEI) fell 2.02% to 7,608.38, while the Hang Seng Tech Index (HSTECH) retreated 1.63% to 4,405.92. The Hang Seng Composite Index (HSCCI) slipped 1.58% to 3,797.03. Total market turnover reached HKD 325.78 billion, reflecting active trading despite the broad pull-back.

Weakness in large-cap internet and consumer discretionary stocks outweighed gains in selected industrial and materials counters. News flow highlighted earnings-driven declines in Trip.com, a sharp fall in Sunny Optical after guidance concerns, and upbeat sentiment in packaging and semiconductor names such as CNBM and GigaDevice.

V. Closing Summary

1. The three major Hong Kong benchmarks closed lower, led by the HSCEI –2.02% and HSTECH –1.63%, as selling in heavyweight internet and consumer names offset strength in selected industrial and materials counters. A robust HKD 325.78 billion turnover underscored brisk participation.

2. Among large-cap techs, sentiment was cautious. Alibaba –4.43%, Tencent –1.73%, and Baidu –3.45% dragged, while chip-related names such as SMIC +1.42% and Lenovo +4.62% found buyers amid supportive semiconductor headlines. The standout was Knowledge Atlas +8.10%, reflecting investor enthusiasm for AI-linked plays.

3. Outside mega-tech, earnings disappointment hit Trip.com –10.92%, making it one of the day’s sharpest decliners after weaker-than-expected profit guidance. Optical-lens maker Sunny Optical –11.73% also tumbled on demand concerns. Conversely, construction-materials group CNBM +14.53% and PCB producer KB Laminates +11.38% surged on strong order momentum, while leveraged products tracking South Korean chipmakers rallied on news of SK Hynix’s planned US listing.

4. Sector rotation was evident: Paper Packaging and Oil & Gas Refining & Marketing led advances, each rising over 10%, supported by supply-demand themes highlighted in intraday reports. At the other end, resource and retail niches such as Copper and Home Improvement Retail faced steep profit-taking. No major IPOs debuted today, but investor focus remained on semiconductor expansion stories and earnings updates.
