Rise in Hong Kong Jewelry Market, Exports Up 6% in Early 2024 In the first two months of 2024, Hong Kong experienced a modest increase in jewelry exports and retail sales, signaling a steady recovery in business and consumer sentiment. According to the Census and Statistics Department, jewelry shipments rose by 6% year-over-year to approximately US$4.4 billion. Retail sales of jewelry, watches, clocks, and valuable gifts also increased by 8.8% to around US$1.3 billion during the same period, despite a slight dip in February’s sales. This growth is attributed to improved exports to China and the US, enhanced household incomes, and government efforts to boost consumer spending, although changing consumption patterns continue to challenge the sector. « Previous Article Next Article » Share This Article Choose Your Platform: Facebook Twitter Google Plus Linkedin Related Posts BullionStar Insights: Systemic Banking Crisis – Calm Before The Storm READ MORE South Korea's Reserve Bank Holds Back Amid Global Rush READ MORE Satellite Imagery Reveals Possible Oil Spill from Houthi-Attacked Tanker in Red Sea READ MORE Silver Seen as 'Screaming Buy' with Prices Expected to Soar – InvestingHaven READ MORE Supreme Court Boosts Dollar Outlook with Trump Immunity Ruling READ MORE Add a Comment Cancel replyYour email address will not be published.
