CICC Analysis of Hong Kong Stocks’ “Smart Money”: Southbound Investors Prefer Adding Positions at Lower Levels, While Active Foreign Capital Is a Lagging Indicator; Structural Opportunities Warrant Greater Attention at Present

Source: CICC Insights Since 2026, Hong Kong equities have continued to diverge in performance from neighboring markets, including A-shares, exhibiting a typical "seesaw" effect. In the first half of the year, as South Korean equities and the technology sector of A-shares strengthened continuously, Hong Kong stocks underperformed and experienced capital outflows. Following the correction in technology stocks in late June, Hong Kong equities rebounded and saw capital inflows. This phenomenon is not unique to this year; similar patterns were observed in 2025 and even earlier. Domestically, strong momentum in Hong Kong stocks during the first half of 2025 coincided with sustained southbound capital inflows, which slowed in the second half as A-shares gained strength. Internationally, overseas investors also adjust their allocations in response to changing market attractiveness in countries such as Japan, India, and South Korea.
