26
Supportive factors for the near-term outlook
Current momentum of the global economy, if continued, will help support Hong Kong’s external demand
Domestic demand should remain largely resilient, supported by favourable job and income conditions
27
Trade conflicts could weigh on global economic sentiment as well as trade and investment activities, thereby possibly putting a damper on Hong Kong’s exports in the period ahead
Local investor sentiment might feel the pinch should the US-Mainland trade conflicts intensify further
Consumer sentiment may turn less sanguine in the wake of the increased external uncertainties
Financial and asset markets could become more volatile upon further tightening of financial conditions across advanced economies
But HK economy faces increased external headwinds
