On June 15, CSC Financial (06066.HK) rose 3.38% in regular trading, trading at HKD 12.2/share, with turnover of HKD 123 million. The stock gained alongside a broad rally across the Investment Banking and Brokerage sector.

The move was driven by improved global risk appetite following new details on a US-Iran memorandum of understanding draft, combined with US May CPI data coming in line with expectations, which significantly eased market concerns about further Fed rate hikes. CSC Financial's research division noted that geopolitical risk premiums declined sharply after reports suggesting a potential US-Iran ceasefire, pushing oil prices lower, compressing inflation expectations, and returning global assets to a liquidity-driven pricing framework. The brokerage sector benefited broadly from improved equity market sentiment and rising trading volumes.

Within the Investment Banking and Brokerage sector, peers also posted gains: CMSC up 7.36%, CICC up 6.12%, CITIC SEC up 3.51%, CGS up 2.92%, and HTSC up 1.54%. CSC Financial separately reported Q1 net profit of RMB 3.667 billion, representing a 99.03% year-over-year increase.
