Will the Hong Kong Marathon boost MTR ridership?

Yes, road closures and bus or minibus diversions usually shift weekend travel to rail. The effect is likely one-off, centered on 18 January. We expect higher station footfall, stronger ad impressions, and small-ticket retail benefits. The net impact should be supportive but not transformational for earnings.

Is MTR 0066.HK stock reasonably valued now?

At HK$30.2, MTR trades on 10.75x TTM earnings and 0.89x book with a 4.34% dividend yield. Margins are strong and leverage is moderate. This places the shares in value territory for a core transport and property platform, though near-term performance may hinge on event flow and upcoming results.

What price levels matter this week?

Support is near HK$29.61–29.96, aligning with the lower Bollinger band and recent intraday low. Resistance is HK$30.58, then HK$32.1, the 52-week high. With ATR at 0.42, intraday swings can be tight, so entries on dips and exits near resistance may offer better risk control.

What should investors watch after the event?

Focus on service updates, station traffic indicators, and management commentary into the 5 March results. Track any data on weekend ridership, ad bookings, and retail sales. Policy updates on fares and transport operations, plus progress on property and international franchises, can also influence medium-term value.
