Recent Hong Kong economic data were weak. Business activity contraction accelerated in August, retail sales decline continued in July, and balance of trade deficit was bigger than expected. Thus, Markit reported Hong Kong PMI fell to 44.0 in August from 44.5 a month earlier. Readings below 50 indicate sector activity contraction. Retail sales fell 23.9% over year in July after 25.3% drop in June. And balance of trade deficit was H$29.8 billion after H$33.3 billion in June when a narrowing to H$27 billion was forecast. And industrial production report due Monday is expected to show manufacturing production dropped 9.5% over year in the second quarter in Hong Kong after a 4.6% decline in the first quarter of 2020. Deteriorating Hong Kong economic activity is bearish for HK50.
