SMIC bucks trend, surges up to 7.7% as HSTECH sinks 1.35%%; 7x Long and Short DLCs in focus
$SMIC(00981)$ surged as much as 7.7% in early trading on Monday (22 June), lifting the SMIC 5x Long DLC nearly 39%, while the SMIC 5x Short DLC fell by a similar magnitude, before the stock trimmed gains to trade up 2.9% by the morning session close.
The rally came as AI-related counters continued to outperform across Asia, even as broader Hong Kong equities opened mostly weaker amid continued softness in non-AI themes.
Meanwhile, the tech-heavy $HSTECH(HSTECH)$ closed 1.35% lower in the morning session, slipping below its key resistance level of around 4,600 and remains under its 50-, 100-, and 200-day moving averages.
Tracking the underlying index, the $HSTECH 7xShortSG270309(9B2W.SI)$ gained about 9.5%, while the $HSTECH 7xLongSG271216(SYHW.SI)$ declined by a similar magnitude.
For investors expecting continued weakness in Hong Kong markets, Short DLCs may offer an opportunity to benefit from declining prices with magnified exposure.
Conversely, investors anticipating a rebound may consider Long DLCs to potentially amplify gains from any upside move.
