  • Hong Kong IPO Market Tops HK$140 Billion with Focus on Gold Trading
    April 26, 2026, 1:50 AM EDT. Hong Kong's initial public offering (IPO) market has raised over HK$140 billion (US$17.87 billion) as of April, keeping its position as the world's top IPO hub, Financial Secretary Paul Chan Mo-po said. The average daily turnover on the Hong Kong stock exchange rose to more than HK$280 billion since March. Despite external market volatility, the city's financing platform attracts high-quality companies aiming for global expansion. However, experts warn the United States might overtake Hong Kong by year-end due to large IPOs like OpenAI and SpaceX. Meanwhile, Chan noted a global trend toward diversified asset allocation, prompted by geopolitical tensions and fast-changing technology, which supports Hong Kong's renewed efforts in developing gold trading as a new avenue for risk diversification.
