Stock Market LIVE Updates: Hong Kong stocks notch 9-day winning streak in longest rally since 2018

Hong Kong stocks extended their rally on Friday, supported by ongoing positive market sentiment fueled by China's increased economic stimulus measures. The Hang Seng Index surged by 1.5%, marking its ninth consecutive day of gains, the longest winning streak since January 2018. Hong Kong-listed Chinese tech giants also saw continued gains, closing 2.7% higher.

NSE cautions investors against entity offering guaranteed returns

The National Stock Exchange (NSE) on Friday cautioned investors against an entity offering guaranteed returns on investment in the stock market. The statement came after the exchange noticed that an authorised person of its registered stock broker was offering guaranteed returns and was collecting commission on such assured returns from investors.

The rally in the global stock markets has been driven mainly by consensus expectations of a soft landing for the US economy. This expectation is now under threat with the fall in US job creation in July and the sharp rise in US unemployment rate to 4.3%. Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East also are a contributing factor. Another significant factor is the unwinding of the Yen carry trade which is bleeding the Japanese market. The crash in Nikkei by above 4% this morning is an indicator of the crisis in the Japanese market.Valuations in India, driven mainly by sustained liquidity flows, continue to be high particularly in the mid and smallcaps segments. The overvalued segments of the market like Defence and Railways are likely to come under pressure. The buy on dips strategy which has worked well in this bull run, is likely to be threatened now. Investors need not rush to buy in this correction. Wait for the market to stabilise.
