Hong Kong's stock market had a great year! The Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing (HKEX), which runs a big stock market, made a record amount of money. This is because many people were buying and selling stocks, and lots of new companies joined the market.
- HKEX made HK$13 billion (that's like $1.7 billion in US dollars!), its highest profit ever.
- The stock market went up because interest rates went down, and China helped the economy.
- The average amount of trading increased by a lot, making HKEX more money.
