Hong Kong’s American Depositary Receipt (ADR) market is experiencing a period of adjustment, with the Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited (HKEX) clearing system playing a role in maintaining market order. According to RTHK reports, several blue-chip ADRs are under selling pressure, and market participants are adjusting their positions accordingly.

Selling Pressure on Blue-Chip ADRs Intensifies, Led by Meituan and Alibaba

The core of this adjustment involves the ADRs of Meituan and Alibaba. Meituan has recorded a decline of over 2%, with its trading price in Hong Kong dollars reaching 90.3. Meanwhile, Alibaba has also experienced a decline of more than 2%, with the market price around 155.4 Hong Kong dollars. The adjustment of these large tech company ADRs reflects a broader risk-avoidance stance across the market.

The clearing mechanism plays an important role in minimizing settlement risks and ensuring market stability, even during such large transactions.

Major Stocks like Tencent and Xiaomi See Increased Declines

Following Meituan and Alibaba, ADRs of Tencent, Xiaomi, Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing, AIA, Ping An Insurance, Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, and Bank of China all declined by more than 1%. The widespread decline among these major stocks indicates strong adjustment pressures across the sector. Financial-related ADRs are also being sold off, suggesting a pervasive bearish sentiment in the overall market.

HSBC Shows Buying Advantage, Indicating Market Rebalancing Signs

In contrast, HSBC’s ADR rose by 0.5%, trading at 139.7 Hong Kong dollars. This counter-movement suggests that market participants are actively rebalancing their positions, and the clearing system is facilitating efficient adjustments. While the overall market remains in a correction phase, individual stocks are showing clearer signs of selective rebalancing.
