On May 29, HTSC (06886.HK) rose 3.08% in regular trading, trading at HKD 15.96/share, with trading volume of HKD 26.12 million. The stock gained alongside a broad rally across the brokerage sector.

On the news front, the brokerage sector saw collective strength, with peers CITIC Securities up 6.68%, CSC up 5.34%, Guotai Junan International up 2.86%, CGS up 2.08%, and CICC up 1.17%. A recent HTSC research report highlighted that broker stock prices have significantly diverged from fundamentals — with the CSI Broker Index down 14.4% year-to-date versus a 3.6% gain in the Shanghai Composite. The report argued that the sector has entered a phase of healthy operations with sustainable earnings growth. Meanwhile, capital flow headwinds are easing marginally as broker ETFs continue to record net inflows, and policy tailwinds are gradually materializing. Additionally, an eight-department initiative to crack down on illegal cross-border securities activities is viewed as a medium-to-long-term positive for leading brokerages, reinforcing the valuation repair thesis amid historically low valuations and institutional positioning.
