The Hong Kong stock market may face new pressure, with shares worth at least HKD255 billion set to see their lock-up periods expire in July, marking the largest monthly total for the remainder of this year, according to HKEX (00388.HK)  -0.800 (-0.207%)    Short selling $280.02M; Ratio 13.538%   data cited by Bloomberg.

In addition, Goldman Sachs estimated that the total value of lock-up expiries related to Hong Kong IPOs will reach USD274 billion over the next year, setting a new high for any rolling twelve-month period. Historical precedents showed that share prices typically face moderate downward pressure following lock-up expiries. The median decline for such stocks reaches 4% within three months and widens to 7% after six months.
