The ChiNext Index fell by more than 1%, while the fluorine chemical industry strengthened. The semiconductor sector dropped, with Heng Technology declining by over 1% and Huahong Semiconductor plunging significantly.

The three major indices of the A-share market collectively turned green, with the STAR 50 Index's decline widening to 2%, and the ChiNext Index falling by more than 1%. The fluorine chemical sector surged ahead strongly, driven by expectations of a significant increase in electronic-grade hydrofluoric acid prices in South Korea during June and July, acting as a core catalyst. CPO and short-form gaming stocks experienced an intraday rally. Power stocks suffered heavy losses, with several stocks nearing the daily limit-down. In Hong Kong, Huahong Semiconductor's stock price went on a roller-coaster ride following its earnings report, while Bilibili fell more than 4%.
