I became interested in the Hong Kong Stock Market from a conversation I had with an investor friend of mine last week – who shared with me that now is a good opportunity to be invested n Hong Kong-listed stocks. With zero knowledge in The Stock Exchange of Hong Kong (HKEX), I decided to conduct some research myself to find out everything I need to know about trading in the HKEX, and in my post today, I’ll be sharing with you everything I’ve researched (for the benefit of those who, just like me, would like to know more about buying/selling shares in the HKEX…)

How Often do You Check on the ‘Health’ of Your Investments?
