On June 30, Lingbao Gold declined 6.49% in regular trading, trading at HKD 11.94 per share, with turnover of approximately HKD 37.97 million. The decline came amid broad-based selling pressure across the gold mining sector driven by intensifying expectations of a Federal Reserve rate hike.

On the news front, Goldman Sachs recently warned that the probability of a Fed rate hike in July stands at 50%, with markets pricing in a hike as early as September. The U.S. dollar index surged to a 13-month high, while spot gold previously broke below $3,980 per ounce, placing sustained pressure on precious metals. The gold sector declined across the board, with Zijin Gold International down 6.67%, Zhaojin Mining down 5.99%, Shandong Gold down 4.88%, China Gold International down 3.57%, and Zijin Mining down 3.47%.

Notably, Lingbao Gold's controlling shareholder Wang Guanran announced on June 24 a plan to acquire up to 16 million H shares over the next 12 months, and the company has conducted multiple share buybacks in recent weeks. However, the macro headwinds from a strengthening dollar and rising real interest rates have overwhelmed these supportive corporate actions in the near term.
