How this development reaches the affected companies
| Asset | Exposure and channel | Direction | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|
| HSI | risk-off regional flows and higher rate expectations pressure Hong Kong equities | Downintraday | Hong Kong's Hang Seng slipped 0.7 per cent as Asian equities fell |
| HKD | the currency is linked to the US dollar peg, so equity weakness alone does not establish direction | Watch1-5d | the report highlighted broad Asian equity weakness rather than a direct Hong Kong FX move |
