The Hong Kong dollar was stuck at the top of its trading band against the US dollar on Wednesday, which might prompt the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) to step in again to prevent the local currency from rising beyond its fixed range, as money poured into the territory. The local currency traded between 7.7500 and 7.7501 on the day.
The HKMA has been intervening in the currency market over the past week as the local currency repeatedly hit its upper trading limit at 7.7500, with the city attracting fund flows because the weak US dollar is making Hong Kong assets attractive.
