Justin Chiu, executive director of CK ASSET (01113.HK) +0.150 (+0.456%) Short selling $34.73M; Ratio 28.438% , stated that the recent decline in HIBOR, paired with the easing of the tariff war between China and the US, and the absence of negative news in 2H25, have cheered up the market. He predicted that property prices will hike 5-7% for the entire year, with transaction volumes also surpassing last year's figures.
