The Hang Seng Index closed with a bullish candlestick resembling a "spinning top," indicating relatively long lower shadows and some support around the 200 SMA and 250 SMA levels (approximately 19,300). When considering the trend of the previous trading day, it forms a potential "pregnant with possibilities" pattern. There were 752 advancing stocks and 877 declining stocks throughout the day, suggesting a slightly weak overall market condition.

The Federal Reserve, as expected, raised interest rates by 0.25 basis points, increasing the target range for the federal funds rate to 5.25 basis points to 5.5 basis points. This marks the 11th rate hike since March last year. In the post-meeting statement, it was mentioned that recent indicators have shown that economic activity has been expanding at a moderate pace, with strong job growth and low unemployment rates. However, inflation remains elevated, and the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) continues to closely monitor inflation risks, committed to achieving the 2% inflation target. Fed Chair Powell stated that there may be another rate hike or maintaining rates at the September meeting, emphasizing that there will be no rate cuts this year and that the decision to cut rates will depend on the level and pace of inflation decline.


The three major U.S. stock indices rose initially before turning soft, with individual developments at the close. Although the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) has risen for 13 consecutive days, the Nasdaq Composite and S&P 500 declined.


Overnight futures and American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) increased, suggesting a potential higher opening for the Hang Seng Index (HSI), with resistance seen around the 100-day Simple Moving Average (SMA) at approximately 19,580. If unable to break above, the index may reverse and turn soft.
