Hong Kong’s morning buying and selling session can be delayed because of a storm alert issued by the federal government, which is presently at sign No. 8.
“If storm Sign No. 8 or above, or any announcement of maximum situations, stays issued at 9:00 a.m. (Hong Kong Time), the morning buying and selling classes for all markets can be cancelled,” Hong Kong Exchanges & Clearing mentioned Friday.
HKEX mentioned that if the sign or any announcement of maximum situations is canceled earlier than midday, the securities and derivatives markets will resume buying and selling within the afternoon.
All buying and selling classes can be canceled if storm sign No. 8 or any announcement of maximum situations stays issued at midday, the bourse mentioned.
