Risk Warning on Trading HK Stocks
Despite Hong Kong's robust legal and regulatory framework, its stock market still faces unique risks and challenges, such as currency fluctuations due to the Hong Kong dollar's peg to the US dollar and the impact of mainland China's policy changes and economic conditions on Hong Kong stocks.
HK Stock Trading Fees and Taxation
Trading costs in the Hong Kong stock market include transaction fees, stamp duty, settlement charges, and currency conversion fees for foreign investors. Additionally, taxes may apply based on local regulations.
HK Non-Essential Consumer Goods Industry
The Hong Kong stock market encompasses non-essential consumption sectors like automotive, education, tourism, catering, and apparel. Of the 643 listed companies, 35% are mainland Chinese, making up 65% of the total market capitalization. Thus, it's heavily influenced by the Chinese economy.
HK Real Estate Industry
In recent years, the real estate and construction sector's share in the Hong Kong stock index has notably decreased. Nevertheless, as of 2022, it retains around 10% market share, covering real estate development, construction engineering, investment, and property management.

Policy Rates
Benchmark interest rates (also known as the reference rate) is the minimum interest rate required by investors when investing in non-Treasury securities. It represents the cost of borrowing.
Plainly speaking, it is the interest charged by the lender to the borrower. Any contract involving borrowers and lenders, such as all car loans, home loans, consumer loans, credit card interest, and mortgages, is influenced by benchmark interest rates. Some major benchmark interest rates are Hong Kong Prime Rate, London Interbank Offered Rate (Libor), and Fed Funds Rate. From a macro perspective, it can be understood as one of the tools used by central banks to interfere with the demand and supply for reserves, which can directly impact liquidity.
A high benchmark interest rate will boost demand for reserves; a low benchmark interest rate will cause banks to increase money supply, catalyzing lending activities in the market and driving borrowing costs lower.
