On May 1, 2025, the Hong Kong stock market remained closed in observance of Labour Day, a public holiday celebrated across many countries. Consequently, there were no trading activities on the Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited (HKEX) for the day.
Recent Market Performance
Prior to the holiday, the Hang Seng Index (HSI) had experienced a notable upward trend. Since the beginning of 2025, the HSI has increased by approximately 10.27%, reflecting investor optimism and positive market sentiment . This growth has been supported by factors such as China’s economic recovery and hopes for policy support.
Looking Ahead
Market analysts suggest that the HSI may encounter a multi-week corrective decline within its major bullish trend, especially if it fails to surpass key resistance levels . Investors are advised to monitor global economic indicators and geopolitical developments that could influence market dynamics in the coming weeks.
Trading on the Hong Kong stock market is expected to resume on May 2, 2025.
