Hong Kong faces limited impact if Fed curbs access to US dollar funding facility: analysts (SCMP)
|
|
|
A US lawmaker's call for a review of Hong Kong's access to a Federal Reserve facility that provides short-term US dollar funding would have limited impact on the city as it is not a regular source of financing, according to analysts, who said any restriction could instead weaken the US dollar's global dominance.
John Moolenaar, chairman of the House China Committee, has written to US Federal Reserve chairman Kevin Warsh urging a review of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority's (HKMA) access to the......

Mainland Chinese, Hong Kong stocks face bumpy fourth quarter as risks mount: analysts (SCMP)
|
|
|
Mainland Chinese and Hong Kong stocks may face a challenging fourth quarter as investors contend with underwhelming stimulus measures from Beijing, tighter financial conditions in the US and a shift in the narrative around the artificial intelligence trade, according to analysts.
The two markets were likely to consolidate throughout the rest of the year to digest the negatives before settling on a clearer direction, according to brokerages including Zheshang Securities and CCB International.
CCB......

Looming interest rate rises will not hit Hong Kong as hard as 2022: analysts (SCMP)
|
|
|
Hong Kong looks set to be hit by a wave of interest rate rises in the coming months, but the city's property market is unlikely to suffer the same level of damage as during the last rate cycle in 2022-2023, according to analysts.
Though major Hong Kong banks have so far held rates steady despite the US Federal Reserve raising its benchmark rate earlier this month, they are widely expected to increase them if the Fed follows through with further tightening later this year.
The combination of......

Tighter scrutiny of Hong Kong IPOs could slow deal flow, analysts say (SCMP)
|
|
|
Securities regulators in Hong Kong and mainland China are doubling down on efforts to raise the quality of Hong Kong initial public offerings (IPOs), which could slow the flow of new listings but would not reduce underlying demand, according to analysts.
In an unusual move, the China Securities Regulatory Commission recently asked nine mainland companies, which had already been pre-approved for listings, to provide supplementary materials detailing fund usage, shareholding structures and pending......

Hong Kong home price rally set to cool after strongest first half in 7 years: analysts (SCMP)
|
|
|
The rally in Hong Kong's housing market is expected to slow in the coming months, after a stellar first half of the year that saw home prices post their strongest gains for the period in seven years.
Despite the market's strong recent recovery, analysts warned that weaker stock-market sentiment and Beijing's introduction of tighter capital controls were likely to curb further gains in the second half.
Private home prices in the city rose by 0.3 per cent in June from a month earlier, extending......

Caution on land tenders key to Hong Kong′s property recovery: analysts (SCMP)
|
|
|
As Hong Kong moves forward with its huge new Northern Metropolis development zone, analysts argue the government should take a cautious approach to land sales to help sustain the recent recovery in the residential property market.
The large-scale project near the border with the Chinese mainland continues to progress, as the government set a tender deadline for midday on Friday for several plots in the Hung Shui Kiu/Ha Tsuen New Development Area.
The parcels of land – which comprise three......

Hong Kong commercial landlords may bet on investment to curb tenant loss from AI: analysts (SCMP)
|
|
|
Hong Kong's older office assets and their struggling landlords could face more challenges as the wider adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) by firms in the city leads companies to relocate to newer buildings that better support their requirements, according to real estate consultancy Knight Frank.
AI is poised to usher in more changes in Hong Kong's commercial office space, and landlords may have to act fast to either refurbish their assets or convert them for new uses, said Lee Elliott,......

Chinese economist Fu Peng, whose candid remarks about the country's economic ills went viral, has joined a Hong Kong cryptocurrency firm as chief scientist, hailing the “historical” leap of digital assets into mainstream finance despite their current slump.

Hong Kong′s 6.5% stamp duty will not stop luxury homebuyers from mainland China: analysts (SCMP)
|
|
|
The increase in stamp duty on ultra-luxury homes above HK$100 million (US$12.8 million) is unlikely to change buying behaviour, analysts said, as the structural forces underpinning demand from mainland Chinese buyers could outweigh the impact of the rise in transaction costs.
The Hong Kong government, in the annual budget on Wednesday, increased the tax rate on residential transactions above HK$100 million to 6.5 per cent from 4.25 per cent amid a surge in demand for high-end property from......

A director of Hong Kong-based Prince Jewellery and Watch has sold a flat in Kowloon and upgraded to a two-storey unit in the same neighbourhood, with an analyst saying that wealthy homeowners are taking advantage of improving sentiment to swap their dwellings.
Tang Yick-ki, a director at Prince Jewellery and Sky Regal Properties, completed both deals in just over a month. Tang also serves as a director in many other companies including Just Gold, Peonia Diamond and Peonia Holdings, according to......

All signs point to a rebound in Hong Kong′s housing market: Morgan Stanley analyst (SCMP)
|
|
|
Hong Kong's housing market may be on the verge of a sharp rebound and a new upcycle after four years of decline, according to Praveen Choudhary, head of Asia gaming, Hong Kong and India property research at Morgan Stanley.
Choudhary expects home prices to rise about 10 per cent in 2026 – among the most bullish forecasts for a market that has fallen roughly 30 per cent from a peak in 2021. For him, the call is less about a single year's gain and more about a shift in the cycle after years of......

Hong Kong, China stocks to outpace US equities all year after quick start, analysts say (SCMP)
|
|
|
Hong Kong and mainland Chinese stocks outpaced their US peers for the first two weeks of 2026 and should continue to do so for the rest of the year on the back of relatively cheaper valuations, a firmer yuan and policy tailwinds, as geopolitics drives more global investors to look to China as a hedge against rising risks in US assets, according to analysts.
The CSI 300 Index has gained 2.4 per cent so far this year, while the Hang Seng Index has climbed 5.3 per cent, both outpacing a 1.7 per......

Hong Kong′s prime office market poised for better year ahead, analysts say (SCMP)

An increase in office leasing activity in Hong Kong, coupled with a moderate amount of new space coming onto the market, translates to improved prospects for the battered commercial property sector next year, according to analysts.
The supply of new grade A office space in 2026 and 2027 was likely to be less than the amount completed in the last two years, according to forecasts by property consultants.
CBRE estimated that a net of 3.5 million sq ft of new premium office space would be completed......

Stronger Hong Kong residential property market whets investor appetite: analysts (SCMP)
|

Hong Kong's residential property market is gradually mending investor sentiment, according to analysts, who are nonetheless cautious about a full recovery amid geopolitical tensions and economic uncertainties.
Investors accounted for 20 per cent of the market's total transactions so far in 2025, according to UBS property analyst Mark Leung, who added that some districts with residential projects near universities might have a higher proportion.
The average gross rental yield for mass residential......
