Mainland Chinese Traders Extend Hong Kong Stock Buying Spree to Fourth Month on AI Bets

Mainland Chinese investors increased their purchases of Hong Kong-listed shares for a fourth consecutive month, with technology companies drawing the largest inflows. The buying accelerated in September, according to the South China Morning Post, as traders concentrated on technology stocks, particularly developers of artificial intelligence models. Healthcare shares, by contrast, recorded the heaviest selling during the same period. The sustained southbound flows underscore mainland investors' appetite for Hong Kong equities tied to AI, even as they retreated from the healthcare sector.
