Stocks in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (SAR) opened 2026 on a strong note, climbing to a one-month high amid sustained optimism around China's domestic artificial intelligence sector. Hong Kong also closed 2025 with a powerful signal to global markets, with the city ranking number one worldwide in IPO fundraising, surpassing the NYSE and NASDAQ combined, backed by strong international capital inflows.

Hong Kong SAR Financial Secretary Paul Chan Mo-po breaks down the drivers behind the optimism in an interview with CGTN. He outlines plans to support national technology development, deepen integration with the Greater Bay Area, and further diversify the city's investor base.
