The Hang Seng is the most widely quoted barometer for the Hong Kong economy. Because of Hong Kong's status as a special administrative region of China, there are close ties between the two economies and many Chinese companies listed on the Hong Kong Exchange. The Hang Seng Index is maintained by a subsidiary of Hang Seng Bank, and has been published since 1969. The index aims to capture the leadership of the Hong Kong exchange, and covers approximately 65% of its total market capitalization. The Hang Seng members are also classified into one of four sub-indexes based on the main lines of business including commerce and industry, finance, utilities and properties.

English/Nat Hong Kong's stock market continued its slide Thursday, with the Hang Seng index dropping below 9-thousand for the first time since October. The morning session closed early with the index at 9110.46 - down 428.15 points. The battered market continues to be plagued by lingering regional currency woes and fears of a possible interest rate rise on Friday. Hong Kong's stock market plummeted drastically for a second consecutive day on Thursday. The territory's Blue Chip Index had already sunk below the 10-thousand point psychological barrier by the end of Wednesday's trading day. By afternoon trading on Thursday, the Hang Seng Index fell below the 9-thousand support level but closed a bit above 9-thousand points. Last October, Hong Kong and nearly all of Asia's other markets suffered a stock market crisis. Financial experts blame it on decreased confidence in their currencies and widespread anxiety over the region's economies. SOUNDBITE: (English) "In a lot of countries - like Indonesia is a prime example, Malaysia, Thailand - is largely a confidence crisis. Even the local people there don't believe in the value of their own currency. So there basically you can see some kind a stampede of people there, grabbing US dollars wherever they can. They basically cause a near meltdown in a lot of those countries. And although here in Hong Kong, we say the banking sector is the most solid in the world, economy is sound, things like that, but the reality is that if the situation continues, even the US market, the US economy will affect us." SUPER CAPTION: Eugene Law, Director, Lippo Securities Trading volume on Thursday almost doubled that of the previous day's trading - with increased transactions on the futures market. Leading the fall for a second straight session were China-related and property stocks, as rumours persisted that Beijing would crack down on capital flows into Hong Kong. SOUNDBITE: (English) "I think that the choice is rather simple. You would rather the economy see a negative growth this year than see your asset value falling down forty, sixty per cent, in a couple of weeks because of currency depreciation." SUPER CAPTION: Eugene Law, Director, Lippo Securities Some Hong Kong banks experienced bank runs during the October crisis. Other Asian currencies have plummeted, including the Indonesian rupiah, Malaysia ringgit and Thai baht. The South Korean won has since risen in value. However analysts forecast short term turmoil for at least the first and second quarters of this year.

English/Nat Hong Kong's Hang Seng index touched a year high after jumping four per cent in Wednesday's early afternoon trade. The stocks were lifted by gains in overseas markets while the Hang Seng had been closed for the Easter holidays. Analysts say the region is beginning to emerge from an economic crisis and that there is a more optimistic feeling among Hong Kong's residents about the future. Re-opening after a five day holiday, the Hang Seng joined in the bubble of optimism that had hit other markets around the world. Stocks rose sharply soon after the markets opened with the index up by 2.33 per cent. It later rose even further to 2.97 per cent to 11,402 points. Brokers say the rise was due to the Hang Seng catching up to the other markets which had surged on Tuesday. They also say that demand is high at the moment for shares in Hong Kong. The rise in stock markets across Asia has led some analysts to claim that the region is beginning to recover from its economic crisis. SOUNDBITE: (English) "In the case of Asia, I think it is just gathering confidence on the part of overseas investors, that Asia has seen the worst, that economic recoveries are getting underway and that things are generally under control." SUPER CAPTION: Howard Gorges, Director, South China Brokerage Co.Ltd Analysts also believe investors are expecting good news from Chinese Premier Zhu Rongji's visit to the United States. The two countries are currently negotiating China's entry into the World Trade Organisation (W-T-O). Beijing has been trying to enter the body for 13 years. The Chinese Premier said on Tuesday there had been a breakthrough on farming issues which would remove a major obstacle to China's entry. Even if a decision isn't announced during Zhu's visit, there is a general feeling in Hong Kong that China will be made a member at some point this year. SOUNDBITE: (English) "I think it is already affecting us favourably although the noises about the W-T-O entry are quite mixed - you know some believe there may be a surprise when he (Zhu Rongji) visits the States, others are saying it may come later in the year. It does seem almost certain that China will become a member during this year and that of course will be good news for Hong Kong and China." SUPER CAPTION: Howard Gorges, Director, South China Brokerage Co. Ltd A once thriving British colony, Hong Kong has been severely hit by the regional financial crisis since its handover to Chinese rule. Property prices which have been traditionally high have dropped in recent times but analysts say the housing market is once again picking up. SOUNDBITE: (English) "Psychologically it does seem we have bottomed out. People are definitely feeling confident about the future. Look at the sales of new residential flats. They are very strong indeed by any measure and that's not even with lower interest rates yet and people are anticipating the interest rates might drop a little bit further. And so that's a sign of confidence returning plus the stock market has led the way in a return of confidence or better sentiment." SUPER CAPTION: Howard Gorges, Director, South China Brokerage Co. Ltd If the recovery continues, it will be good news for the whole of the region.

English/Nat After a roller-coaster ride over the last few days, the Hong Kong stock market surged early on Friday, seizing on rises in the London market. During early morning trading, investors shrugged off an overnight slide on Wall Street, allowing Hong Kong's key, blue chip indicator to surge 413-point-96 points, or 4-point-8 per cent in the first 20 minutes of trading. As the opening bell heralded in a new day's trade on the Hong Kong stock exchange, traders said a rise overnight in the London gave their a market a boost as property, financial and utilities stock all posted gains. The Hang Seng has been highly volatile all week, and on Monday the index plunged to a near three-year low. It rebounded strongly on Tuesday and Wednesday, only to plunge 7 percent on Thursday amid rumours that a major property developer would default on debts. However, it recovered on Friday and the Hong Kong stock market closed its morning session at 8840-point-02 points -- up 261-point-04 or 3 per cent. Investors said they didn't expect the market to stabilize anytime soon, but do not predict that many more companies will foreclose. SOUNDBITE: (English) " I think that the market needs to wait for the situation in Asia to settle before the valuation, and also for this moment, the market will be driven by the technical point and also by the futures market. Also the sentiment in the local market is still weak and without a special rate retail players do not want to buy aggressively." SUPER CAPTION: Kenny Tang, Research Manager, C.A Pacific Group It is this lack of confidence that has driven up interest rates, which in turn has squeezed the already low property market. SOUNDBITE: (English) "I think the short term impact has been over and the worst has gone away but for the longer term, because developers need to sell their stock in return for cash for the investment because interest rates are staying high, they need more cash flow for their future development in order to reduce their interest cost. So I think the property prices may be decreased by 10 to 15 percent more before it hits the bottom." SUPER CAPTION: Kenny Tang, Research Manager, C.A Pacific Group However, amid the recent instability in the Asian markets, there is more gloom on the horizon with rumours that the airline, Cathay Pacific will shed 300 jobs in Hong Kong on Friday. More jobs are expected to go in it's global operations. But with this news in mind the Hang Seng still managed to rally a strong close 261 points up at 8840-points-02 points, erasing some of Thursday's losses.

English/Nat New fears that China may devalue the Yuan produced sharp falls in the Hong Kong markets on Tuesday. The Hang Seng dropped to a five-year low during afternoon trading as the index fell by more than three percent. Other Asian markers also have been badly affected. The Hong Kong dollar has come under strong speculative attacks. Fears about stock prices and currencies were reinforcing each other, driving both down. The Asian stock markets slumped in a vicious circle of pessimism about the region's economy, and especially about Japan. SOUNDBITE: (English) "There's continued weakness in the Yen, Yen is still trading at one four six to the dollar and investors have no confidence in the Japanese government's ability to turn around the Japanese economy." SUPER CAPTION: Francis Lun, Analyst at Pacific Challenge Traders also said investors are spooked by worries over a devaluation of the Chinese Yuan, which would likely lead to another round of devaluations in the region. However, Lun said that China's economy has managed to stay reasonably buoyant despite the country's recent hardships. SOUNDBITE: (English) "Despite the flood in central China I think the economy in mainland China is not that bad; it has the strength to recover later this year so I think the Hong Kong economy will probably bottom out near the end of the year by about November before it recovers. So I think we should not be too negative or pessimistic about Hong Kong or China but I think the recession will linger on for another quarter or two but it will recover." SUPER CAPTION: Francis Lun, Analyst at Pacific Challenge Besides Asia's own troubles, there now are worries about whether the U-S economic boom is running out of steam. A weaker U-S economy is likely to decrease the demand for Asian goods, which would hurt the Asian countries that have been hoping to export their way out of their troubles.

English/Nat Hong Kong stocks plunged early on Tuesday in response to sharp falls in global stock exchanges and following news that a credit rating agency has slashed the territory's credit rating. The government, which has already spent an estimated 15 per cent of its 96 (b) billion U-S dollars in foreign reserves, stayed on the sideline after its two-week stock buying spree in a battle against speculators. Hong Kong's main blue-chip Hang Seng Index plunged through 7-thousand points at one point on Tuesday. But it rebounded to close the morning trading session on the Hong Kong stock exchange, 1.6 per cent lower at 7,155.23 points, as investors bought back shares they sold at higher prices last week. The U-S's Dow Jones Industrial Average also took a sharp drop on Monday. It slid 6.4 per cent, or 512.61 points, to close at 7,539.07, suffering its second-largest drop in points ever. Financial analysts in Hong Kong said the drop was a reaction to the fall in markets worldwide. SOUNDBITE: (English) "At this morning the share market opened down in relation to the drop on Wall Street. But interestingly, it completely stabilised and then by now actually it almost recouped most of its losses. I think the reason is that today you can see the government has not been buying, but it is all the stock brokers who have been buying, indicates that there has been quite a lot of recovery." SUPER CAPTION: Percy Au-young, Director, DBS Securities On Monday, a credit agency on the island slashed Hong Kong's credit rating, citing government intervention in the stock and stock futures markets. The agency, Standard and Poor's said the government is likely to suffer huge losses in the stock market with its massive accumulation of shares, unless there was a reverse in the downward trend in global equity prices. But Hong Kong's government defended its efforts to prop up stock prices. It issued a statement saying the intervention in stock and stock futures markets was necessary to quash market manipulation by speculators and restore market order. Standard and Poor's also downgraded the credit rating of Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation, the territory's largest bank and a subsidiary of the market's largest share, H-S-B-C Holdings. SOUNDBITE: (English) "I think S and P (Standard and Poor's) downgrade has its point. They are worried after the government has spent so much of its reserves, the stability of the Hong Kong economy and the lasting of the peg (Hong Kong U-S dollar peg). But that has already been expected by the market. The market has been fully expecting that. So that's why the market today has stopped reacting to that downgrade per say. SUPER CAPTION: Percy Au-young, Director, DBS Securities Analysts have also said they don't think the government will have as much intervention in the markets again in the near future. SOUNDBITE: (English) "I don't think the government can intervene the same way as they did the past 2 weeks because they have already used more than 10 percent of the reserves. So in the future, they would be more flexible in the intervention and would also draw some new administrative measures to work with the intervention." SUPER CAPTION: Percy Au-young, Director, DBS Securities Financial experts now believe the government cannot unload all its shares without triggering a further market collapse, and that the scene is set for a showdown between government and speculators..

Various of trading floor STORYLINE: Global market turmoil continued into a second week as Asian markets tumbled on Monday in the wake of Wall Street's sell-off on Friday amid persistent worries about a possible US, and worldwide, economic slowdown. In Hong Kong the blue chip Hang Seng Index fell 1,068.76 points, or 4.27 percent, to 24,053.61, trimming some losses after earlier plunging more than six percent. The benchmark measure gained 6.7 percent on Friday, capping a volatile week of trading. But market analyst Francis Lun said it's unlikely that he "extraordinary circumstances" of last week will be repeated. "I don't think we will see further catastrophic loss in another major bank. I think already the sub-prime mortgage is already catastrophic enough, not including another one," Lun, the General Manager of Fulbright Securities in Hong Kong, told AP Television on Monday. In Tokyo, Japan's benchmark Nikkei 225 index fell 3.97 percent to close at 13,087.91, erasing its jump on Friday. South Korean shares also fell sharply on Monday, with the main index declining nearly four percent. The Korea Composite Stock Price Index (KOSPI) fell 65.22 points, or 3.9 percent, to 1,627.19, its second largest decline this year. Analyst Lee Young-gon of Hanwha Securities commented; "Some stocks were heavily sold due to the concern about a further fall. The rumour on the bankruptcy of a European hedgefund particularly weighed on the market today. These factors pushed down the stock prices." China's benchmark index plummeted 7.2 percent to its lowest point in six months on concerns that a recession in the US would mean less demand for Chinese-made products. Markets also fell in India and Taiwan. US stock index futures also were down, suggesting that Wall Street was poised to drop again when markets open. Investors around the world have been jittery for weeks about a US slump, which would likely weaken demand for exports and drag on global growth. There is also concern about a worldwide credit crunch triggered by rising defaults in risky US mortgages, which has led to mountains of bad assets at major American and European banks. Last week was a tumultuous one for global markets, and it appeared that turmoil would continue. Asian and European stocks had plunged early last week on worries about slower US growth. By Friday, markets in Hong Kong and Tokyo had nearly recovered their early week losses.

English/Nat Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index has hit a new all-time high of 46.1 billion (b) Hong Kong dollars (5.9 billion U-S dollars) just five minutes into afternoon trading on Friday. As expected, the Hong Kong government aggressively bid on stocks to counter the enormous sell orders from different investment sectors short selling stocks and futures. By the end of early trading, the territory's key blue-chip indicator registered a turnover volume of more than 40-billion dollars (5.17 billion (b) U-S dollars) closing midday at 7859.83, down 63.14 points. Exactly one year ago today, the Hang Seng Index registered its all- time high during the first stages of the oncoming Asia financial crisis. One year later, it has registered a new all-time high. Local reports in Hong Kong have estimated the government has spent more than 2.3 billion (b) U-S dollars to maintain the U-S-dollar currency peg. However, some analysts predict more than that has been spent within the past two days. S-A-R officials are continuing their intervention efforts into its second week by buying up most of the shares which account for the 5.1 billion (b) U-S dollar trading volume. Last week, Hong Kong's Chief Executive, Tung Chee-hwa, pledged that the government will do all it can in order to protect the linked exchange rate. SOUNDBITE: (English) "We would do it at the right time, when it is necessary to protect our currency market, to protect our stock market. The integrity of our market needs to be protected." SUPER CAPTION: Tung Chee-hwa, Hong Kong Chief Executive Meanwhile, Hong Kong Bank's Economic Advisor, George Leung said the government's intervention will not have a large effect on the overall economy. SOUNDBITE: (English) "I think it's mainly because the government and also speculators, they are playing two different ways into the stock market. So that only reflects the transaction volume between the two parties and not necessarily the underlying the market, the normal market transaction. So the figure is just showing how serious the battle between the speculators and the government and doesn't imply a second meaning". SUPER CAPTION: George Leung, Hong Kong Bank economic advisor Leung stressed that the government has received both praise and criticism for their intervention. But he added that only time will tell whether this government intervention will have positive effects on the economy. SOUNDBITE: (English) "I think there is some justification on the government intervention to enter into the market. Basically, if the government wanted to sustain the confidence of the people into the Hong Kong system, then I think there is sharp evidence to prove that that's been shaken, then I think there is some grounds for the government to get into the market in order to maintain the orders." SUPER CAPTION: George Leung, Hong Kong Bank economic advisor Leung said he believes the government will do all it can to maintain confidence within the community. Friday also marks the final cutoff date for futures transactions as well as the announcement of the second quarter Gross Domestic Product (G-D-P) figures. Analysts are expecting to see a three percent negative growth rate when the G-D-P figures are released.

More detailed information shows that the event occurred at about 35 minutes past 9 Hong Kong time this morning at a location about 41 point 3 degrees north and 129 point 1 degrees east, that was in North Korea. The magnitude of the seismic event was 4 point 2 on the Richter scale and we did also check our seismograph reading and found that the equipment did not record any tremor associated with this seismic event." 9.

It's partly triggered by the nuclear testing in North Korea which dampens market interest and causes uncertainty in the Asian equities market." 17. Wide shot of trading room 18. Screen showing changes in stock prices 19. Wide of trading room STORYLINE: The Hong Kong Observatory said on Monday that its equipment did not record any tremor associated with North Korea's announcement that it had carried out a nuclear test. Chan Ying-wa, an observatory scientist, said he was aware from the U.S. National Earthquake Information Centre that there was a "seismic event" but added that their equipment "did not record any tremor associated with this seismic event." The observatory has installed a long period seismograph to detect the seismic wave associated with distant earthquakes. Whenever a significant event is recorded, the first arrival time of the seismic waves is recorded and passed to other national seismic centres such as the National Earthquake Information Centre (NEIC) and the Pacific Tsunami Warning Centre (PTWC). Meanwhile, Hong Kong stocks fell sharply on Monday after North Korea announced it had conducted a nuclear explosion. "At one point the Hang Seng index dropped more than 3-hundred points. It's partly triggered by the nuclear testing in North Korea which dampens market interest and causes uncertainty in the Asian equities market," said Louis Wong, a market analyst. The blue chip Hang Seng Index closed down 1.3 percent at 17,675.24 points. North Korea's claim to have tested a nuclear weapon caused knee-jerk selling, although was unlikely to have a lasting impact on the market unless there was a dramatic new development such as a military strike on its nuclear facilities, analysts said. If the test is confirmed, North Korea would be the ninth country known to have nuclear weapons, along with the United States, Russia, France, China, Britain, India, Pakistan and Israel.

HONG KONG: HANG SENG INDEX FALLS BUT INVESTORS OPTIMISTIC

English/Nat Hong Kong's key stock price index, the Hang Seng, fell by three percent in early trading on Thursday, but later recovered to finish down just over 1 percent. Investors have been increasingly worried by Japan's weak yen, which has encouraged fears that the peg between the Hong Kong and U-S dollars might be broken. But investors and economists gathered for an Asian financial crisis conference believe Hong Kong is in a strong position to ride out the worst of the Asian slump. As investors dumped shares amid worries of Japan's falling Yen, Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index dropped three percent soon after the morning session opened. The Index fell below the 8-thousand point benchmark on Wednesday following a record low for the Japanese Yen. But after the initial selling, bargain hunters emerged helping to cap losses in the benchmark index. The Hang Seng later recovered to finish down just over 1 percent. At an Asian financial crisis conference, economists said the recent financial turmoil has called into question the future of the Hong Kong-U-S Dollar peg. It is a policy which has brought Hong Kong prosperity since its introduction 14 years ago. But many are now questioning the policy because it has caused high interest rate in the property market, a backbone of Hong Kong's economy. SOUNDBITE: (English) "Well as long as the tax system is maintained it will go on for quite some time and become increasingly painful. I think one of the solutions for Hong Kong would be to essentially to abandon the tax system." SUPERCAPTION: Marc Faber, economist John Greenwood who introduced the U-S Dollar peg to Hong Kong, still holds his belief in keeping the policy. SOUNDBITE: (English) "I think people who make that argument simply don't understand the mechanism that the currency board mechanism is extremely strong and durable, much stronger than the standard mechanisms of other Central Banks. In the event of an attack on the currency, Hong Kong has hardly lost any reserves at all. In fact throughout this whole period of the Asian crisis Hong Kong reserves continue to rise, so I don't think that Hong Kong is vulnerable or that the currency needs to be changed." SUPER CAPTION: John Greenwood, economist Deputy Prime Minister of Thailand Supachai Panitchpakdi was among the many speakers who pleaded for cooperation among the international community. SOUNDBITE: (English) "Recession in Asia will be turned into a worldwide depression. Recession in Asia could very well be turned into a worldwide depression. And this kind of message must be sent out." SUPER CAPTION: Supachai Panitchpakdi, Deputy Prime Minister of Thailand For his part, Hong Kong's Chief Executive Tung Chee-hwa once again reaffirmed that the Hong Kong U-S Dollar peg will not be removed and the Hong Kong dollar will not be devalued.

HONG KONG: HANG SENG INDEX SLUMPS BELOW CRUCIAL 10,000 MARK

English/Nat Hong Kong's Hang Seng index slumped by more than five percent on Friday - dipping below the psychologically important 10,000 mark. The market drop came despite bullish comments by Hong Kong's Financial secretary Donald Tsang, and an optimistic I-M-F (International Monetary Fund) report. A nervous stock market is becoming a fact of life for Hong Kong investors - with five percent drops an almost daily occurrence. But Friday's slump takes the market below what analysts always described as the psychologically important 10,000 point level. Investors had hoped that a glowing report from the I-M-F, indicating sound economic fundamentals, would help rally stocks. But the short term effects of further currency turmoil in the region appear to have had more immediate impact than the evidence of a strong underlying economy. Speculators took aim at the Hong Kong dollar again on Friday - pushing interest rates even higher and causing the initial steep slide. SOUNDBITE: (English) "Well I think the main reason is interest rate worries and the possibility of currency arbitrageurs making another attack on the Hong Kong Dollar. This morning I think the Korean Won was attacked and also the interbank rate was pushed high to keep it slightly higher than yesterday. There was wide rumour that the prime rate would be increased by one percent to defend the currency. That's why the investors just sold out" SUPER CAPTION: Francis Lun, Pacific Challenge Securities Short term market interest rates moved up to 14 per cent early in the day, from 12.5 per cent Thursday. They later eased, but the jump fuelled investor fears of more interest rate rises to come. While speculators from outside the region were blamed for the recent attacks on the currency, it is nervous local investors who are responsible for the latest turmoil. SOUNDBITE: (English) "Well actually the foreign investors have pulled out already. Most of them have pulled out. There are very few foreign investors left and most of them are in the market to play the index market - the futures market not in the stock market itself. They use blue chip stocks and the index futures to arbitrate against each other." SUPER CAPTION: Francis Lun Pacific Challenge Securities Some analysts think the index will go as low as 9000, while others are expecting a rapid rebound. The fact that such diverse views can happily coexist shows just how volatile the market has become in recent weeks. Experts like Lun say that stocks now are very cheap - so it's only a matter of time before the smart money comes pouring back in to snap up bargains. Donald Tsang, Hong Kong's Financial Secretary, also hopes that the I-M-F report will boost investors' medium term outlook. Tsang called it a clean bill of health, and urged Hong Kongers to be proud of their government and their territory. SOUNDBITE: (English) "They continue to believe that we should maintain the system and they have no negative comment at all on the linked exchange rate or the way we have operated it. The team has also looked at Hong Kong's economy as a whole particularly on our fiscal system, the way in which the economy has been growing and behaving. They have confirmed that we have very strong fiscal position. A balanced fiscal situation, a very healthy balance of payments with enormous reserves and very prudent fiscal principles" SUPER CAPTION: Donald Tsang Hong Kong Financial Secretary The I-M-F said that Hong Kong's banks are in good shape, and that the economy's growth will continue at around 5 percent despite the recent shocks. Tsang used the report to encourage foreign investors to move back into the Hong Kong Market.

English/Nat Hong Kong's Hang Seng Index was sharply lower in Friday morning trade, extending Thursday's slide. At one point, the index slid through 10,000 points, falling 4.4 percent. The downward spiral continued in Hong Kong Friday, with early morning trading on the Hang Seng Index down 2.32 percent to 10,122.71. And the trouble wasn't over. The Hang Seng continued its slide through 10,000 points, falling 455 points, or 4.4 percent, to a session low of 9,907 during the morning. Some analysts believe the Hang Seng is taking a hit because of momentum more than underlying fundamentals. SOUNDBITE: (English) "We are talking about fundamentals against short term jittery, caused by I hate to say but highly speculative money, not necessary this money is based on fundamental factors. They're trading on momentum, and unfortunately Asia at this point in time is providing the perfect setting for people to wreck this market for their needs. SUPER CAPTION: Eugene Law, Director, Lippo Securities Banking stocks led the decline after prompting a 402.44-point, or 3.74-percent, slide in the Hang Seng Index on Thursday. HSBC Holdings PLC dropped HK$5.00 to HK$168.50 on Friday and Hang Seng Bank Ltd fell HK$3.25 to HK$63.00. If current problems persist, the market will have to rethink other stocks including metals like copper. SOUNDBITE: (English) "If interest rates to be sort of drag on at high current or relatively high levels for another month, then we really have to rethink our copper earnings and things like that. Um, its too early. We are still hopeful and for whatever reason that the currency speculators will be away soon but of course the reality is its difficult to think of a reason. They are making a good sort of killing here that they should give it up. " SUPER CAPTION: Eugene Law, Director, Lippo Securities November Hang Seng Index futures fell 210 points to 9,890. With such a dismal overall picture, some believe there is only one sure bet - a return to the savings account. SOUNDBITE: (English) "One very obvious sort of alternative, or probably the only alternative for a lot of people at this point in time is to put the money in your deposit accounts, actually with interest rates. At the height of the problem with the interbank rates pushed up to on an overnight basis 300 percent, I remember one bank offered a one month fixed deposit with a rate of 30 percent. " SUPER CAPTION: Eugene Law, Director, Lippo Securities Total market turnover on the Hang Seng was HK$3.38 billion (US$437 million after the first 35 minutes of trading.
