Hong Kong trading opened with positive momentum on Thursday, as global sentiment lifted by strong earnings from Nvidia boosted demand for risk assets.
The benchmark Hang Seng Index jumped at the opening, rising roughly 0.95 % to around 27,019 points, and broad China-linked shares were higher in early trade. Gains were supported by improved tech sentiment and a weaker yen aiding export-linked equities, although geopolitical tensions remained a headwind for energy and commodity sectors.
Mainland market proxies in Hong Kong also edged higher, with financial and property shares modestly outperforming rivals as regional liquidity conditions remained supportive. Investors appear to be positioning for continued AI-led tech demand while monitoring U.S. macro signals and currency flows.
