>>capitalization of the whole HK market is about $270
Billion US, the HK Government has $90 billion US reserve, so the most it can own is 33% of the HK market.<<

If it waits for some dips, which seem to happen because everybody
wants to sell when they get the opportunity, then the Gov't
can get the stocks for cheaper. Seems that they
may intervene at 6500.

BTW...can you shed any light on their strategy. It looks
like investors are getting confused and just bailing out if
they can. On the other hand, maybe speculators will know
that they can push their hand only so far before the gov't
steps in.

All, this so that the HK peg can be kept up to support
the Chinese currency. I guess, it's still not possible
to unpeg HK currency from the $? The area there is
still to weak?
