Hong Kong: Investment flows despite political repression

In Hong Kong, listed companies enjoyed their best start to a year's first quarter regarding share sales so far. Because after China weathered the Covid crisis well, investors are looking for Chinese assets. The crackdown on the protest movement does not seem to be a factor in this space. Local US investment banks are also hiring massively. Parallel worlds are emerging. The US government appears to have no interest in curbing the inflow of US money for political reasons.
