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.

EU Warns of 'Big Gap' as Trump Amps up Threats on EU, Canada, Mexico
Summary:
"There will be a huge impact on trade,” the EU's chief negotiator said Monday. "It will be almost impossible to continue trading as we are used to in a transatlantic relationship."
President Trump is pushing through with his tariff agenda, unveiling a new batch of letters to country leaders outlining tariffs on goods imported from their countries beginning in August.
Trump on Thursday announced a 35% tariff on Canadian goods. He followed that up this weekend with promises of 30% duties on Mexico and the European Union. In an interview with NBC News published late Thursday, Trump also floated 15% to 20% blanket tariffs on most trading partners, higher than the 10% level currently in effect.
The fresh tariff salvos capped a week in which Trump sent a barrage of tariff letters to over 20 trade partners, setting levels of 20% to 40% — except for a 50% levy on goods from Brazil in a move that waded into the country's domestic politics.
The EU is now scrambling to avoid the tariffs in just over two weeks, with leaders both pledging to negotiate but also warning of a "big gap" and the need to prepare countermeasures in case talks fail.
"There will be a huge impact on trade,” the EU's chief negotiator said Monday. "It will be almost impossible to continue trading as we are used to in a transatlantic relationship."
As markets focus on US talks, here is where things stand with other key partners:
Vietnam: Trump said a deal with Vietnam will see the country's imports face a 20% tariff — lower than the 46% Trump had threatened in April. He also said Vietnamese goods would face a higher 40% tariff "on any transshipping" — when goods shipped from Vietnam originate from another country, like China. According to reports, Vietnam's leadership was caught off guard by Trump's announcement last week that it agreed to a 20% tariff and is now seeking to lower the rate.
India: Trump's tariffs on Brazil have raised the stakes for India, another member of the BRICS coalition. Bloomberg reported that the countries are working toward a framework deal that could see US tariffs on goods from India drop below 20%.
Russia: Trump threatened "secondary" tariffs on Russia of up to 100% as he attempts to pressure the country into negotiating an end to the war in Ukraine.
