People’s Financial News, March 25 — With two new stocks listing on the Hong Kong stock market on March 24, the scale of listed companies in Hong Kong has expanded again. Wind data shows that in less than three months since 2026, the financing amount in the Hong Kong IPO market has surpassed HKD 100 billion, a more than 500% increase compared to the same period last year. Looking at individual stocks, the number of “technology” companies among the 34 newly listed stocks has also significantly increased, with many targets from the semiconductor, software, and other industries. Notably, unlike the synchronized upward trend in both primary and secondary markets in 2025, the Hong Kong secondary market has experienced fluctuations and a pullback this year, and has not kept pace with the hot primary market. Industry insiders believe that the impact of Middle Eastern geopolitical conflicts on global risk assets has not been fully eliminated. In the short term, Hong Kong stocks are placing greater emphasis on risk prevention. Aside from the value dividend sectors, it is recommended to continue monitoring the new energy sector.
