STOCK INFO

The 10th batch of government-issued Silver Bonds starts accepting subscriptions today (15th), with a guaranteed minimum interest rate of 3.85%.

Shirley Leung, Deputy General Manager of Personal Banking Products at BOC HONG KONG (02388.HK)  -0.380 (-1.011%)    Short selling $127.73M; Ratio 17.336%   , revealed that the bank received many customer inquiries last week. As the market anticipates that the Fed will cut interest rates by a quarter-point this week and another half-point by the end of the year, and that Hong Kong banks may follow suit, the returns on this batch of Silver Bonds have become attractive.

The target issuance amount for the 10th batch of Silver Bonds is HKD50 billion. The government has the discretion to increase it to HKD55 billion based on subscription demand. In Leung's estimate, the oversubscription trend will continue, bringing the number of subscribers to over 300,000, with a total subscription amount of more than HKD70 billion and a possible increase in the total issuance amount to HKD55 billion.
