The Hang Seng Index is regaining momentum after months of lackluster expansion. It’s getting close to the psychological 25000 mark. Much of this optimism stems from Beijing’s new stimulus package, which is intended to promote consumer spending and support the real estate market. On July 8, Chinese officials unveiled a series of pro-growth steps, including making it simpler for private enterprises to obtain funding and lowering mortgage restrictions. These measures are being implemented as China battles deflationary pressures and a decrease in investor confidence.
IT and property companies climbed substantially, sending the Hang Seng Index above 18000 for the first time in several weeks. The 25000 level is now on the investors’ radar, but it has not been tested since 2022.

Heavyweight Chinese firms such as Tencent and Alibaba are regaining traction, thanks to domestic support and increased international interest.
The Hang Seng may climb again, since China’s leaders have demonstrated their commitment to reviving the economy. Global investors will be watching closely.
