Vigers Hong Kong Property Index Series -March 2017
威格斯香港物业指数系列 – 2017年3月

The US Federal Reserve decided to raise interest rate by 0.25% in March and lifted the benchmark interest rate to a range of 0.75% to 1%, in line with market estimates. Notwithstanding the pegging system of Hong Kong dollar to USD, Hong Kong has not followed the US increase due to the ample liquidity in the local banking system. All four indices recorded an increase in March, among which Shatin-Central Link Index (SCLI) saw the highest monthly growth of 6.4%; yet, it fell by 1.9 % year to date. It is followed by Kowloon East Index (KEI), which increased by 5.6% during the month. Both Luxury Index (LI) and Mass Residential Index (MI) were up 2.5%. With pent-up end-user demand, the home purchase sentiment in the city remains strong and housing prices continue on an uptrend.

美国联储局在3月份决定将利率上调0.25%，并将基准利率上调至0.75%至1%，符合市场预测。尽管港元与美元挂钩，但由于本地银行体系的流动性充裕，香港并没有跟随美国加息。四个指数在三月份均录得升幅，当中沙中线指数（SCLI）按月升幅达6.4%。但今年目前为止，它下降了1.9%。其次是九龙东指数（KEI），按月上升5.6%。豪宅指数（LI）和大型屋苑指数（MI）均录得2.5%的升幅。在积压了不少用户需求的情况下，本地的购买情绪仍然强劲，楼价维持上升趋势。
