I am asked this question in question, "What is the best index to trade now?"
I would say it is Hang Seng and Hong Kong stocks.
We do expect Hang Seng to pierce through 25000 soon. Get ready for a 4 years breakout.
Optimism is strong following the 沪港通 policy. October should be the earliest date for the official launch. Testing starts today until October. 沪港通 is a policy that allows both China and Hong Kong investors to invest in each other markets.
