Ye Shangzhi, chief strategist at First Shanghai, predicts that Hong Kong stocks will continue to find a bottom, with a chance to reach around 23,000 points, and the stock market once fell below 24,000 that day.
If investors hope to "find the bottom" and rebound, it is more appropriate to be close to 23,000.
His analysis pointed out that the stock market fell sharply because of multiple factors such as Evergrande news, regulatory policies, and the Federal Reserve's interest rate negotiations.
However, due to the suspension of "North Water" during the Mid-Autumn Festival, the stock market's ability to accept it was reduced.
He further pointed out that Hong Kong stocks will be closed on Wednesday (22nd), and the Fed's interest rate negotiation results will be announced in the early morning of Thursday (23rd) Hong Kong time, so the market will react first to cool down.
