Core Viewpoint - The article discusses the impact of the recent "reciprocal tariffs" announced by Trump on the global market, particularly focusing on the Chinese market and its recovery trends following the initial shock [1][3]. Market Performance Summary - Following the announcement of tariffs on April 2, the Hong Kong stock market experienced significant volatility, with a notable drop on April 7 that erased all gains for the year. However, by May 2, the Hang Seng Tech Index rebounded by 19.1%, while MSCI China, Hang Seng Index, and Hang Seng China Enterprises Index saw rebounds of 13.6%, 13.5%, and 13.3% respectively. The Shanghai Composite Index and CSI 300 had smaller rebounds of 5.9% and 5.0% [1]. - Sector performance from April 8 to May 2 showed that Information Technology (+29.0%), Healthcare (+19.2%), and Consumer Discretionary (+14.3%) led the gains, while sectors like Banking (+4.9%), Utilities (+5.6%), and Energy (+5.9%) lagged behind [1]. Industry Analysis Framework - The article proposes an industry analysis framework based on demand sources, categorizing industries into three main types: 1. Industries primarily dependent on the U.S. market, which face significant challenges in finding alternative demand. 2. Industries with demand from markets outside the U.S., which are less directly affected by U.S. tariffs. 3. Industries with domestic demand, which are influenced by domestic policy support [4][6]. Impact of Tariffs on Different Industries - Industries with primary demand from the U.S. are categorized based on their ability to find alternative markets and their bargaining power. Sectors like Media, Software Services, and Textiles have shown resilience due to higher profit margins and U.S. import dependency, while smaller firms in shipping and medical supplies face greater challenges [6][10]. - Industries with demand from other markets, particularly those with established market shares and competitive advantages, are expected to perform better. Sectors such as Technology Hardware and Home Appliances have shown potential for growth in non-U.S. markets [11][14]. - Domestic demand-driven industries, particularly in consumption and infrastructure, are closely tied to government policy support. The article highlights the importance of fiscal measures to mitigate external shocks [18][20]. Historical Context and Future Outlook - The article draws parallels with the 2018-2019 trade tensions, noting that the current market dynamics reflect similar patterns of initial decline followed by recovery phases. The sectors that are less dependent on U.S. demand have shown more resilience, while those heavily reliant on U.S. markets have faced significant declines [21][25]. - The potential impact of tariffs on GDP and corporate profits is discussed, with estimates suggesting that a significant drop in exports to the U.S. could lead to a decline in GDP growth and a downward adjustment in profit forecasts for Hong Kong stocks [34][35]. - The article concludes with a projection of market indices under different scenarios, emphasizing the need for policy support to counterbalance the negative effects of tariffs and the importance of sector-specific strategies for investors [37].
