What exactly did shareholders approve in today’s vote?

Shareholders at Hang Seng’s court meeting and EGM approved the Hang Seng Bank privatization proposed by HSBC, a deal estimated near HK$100 billion. The vote supports full ownership while keeping the Hang Seng brand. It does not complete the transaction by itself. Court sanction, legal filings, and other procedural steps still need to occur before the deal becomes effective and any cash consideration is distributed.

How could the HSBC Hang Seng deal affect 0011.HK stock in the short term?

Near term, 0011.HK may trade around technical levels because much of the approval was anticipated. With RSI near 70 and ADX strong, dips toward the Bollinger middle band around HK$153.50 could attract buyers, while HK$154.38 may cap rallies. The Hang Seng Bank privatization narrative supports sentiment, but progress to court sanction and broader Hong Kong liquidity will likely drive day-to-day price action.

Is 0005.HK more attractive than 0011.HK after the vote?

It depends on your goals. 0005.HK offers a lower PE at 17.17 and a 4.04% yield, with strong momentum but overbought signals. 0011.HK has a 20.18 PE and 4.62% yield, plus potential upside if integration lifts returns. If you want group scale and diversified earnings, 0005.HK fits. If you prefer Hong Kong retail strength and brand value, 0011.HK appeals.
