Risk Appetite Rebounds? U.S. Stocks Rise, Hong Kong ADRs Up 35 Points
After weeks of market jitters, signs of rebounding risk appetite emerged on February 23, 2026, as U.S. stocks closed higher and Hong Kong-listed American Depositary Receipts (ADRs) surged by 35 points. The S&P 500 gained 1.2%, driven by tech and consumer discretionary sectors, while the Nasdaq rose 1.5%, buoyed by AI-related stocks like Nvidia and Meta.
This uptick comes amid mixed economic signals: robust job data contrasted with lingering inflation concerns. Investors appear to be betting on a soft landing, with the Federal Reserve hinting at potential rate cuts later in the year. "The fear from last month's sell-off is fading as earnings reports exceed expectations," said a strategist at Goldman Sachs.
Hong Kong ADRs, which track U.S.-listed Chinese firms like Alibaba and Tencent, jumped 35 points, reflecting optimism over eased U.S.-China trade tensions or stimulus from Beijing. Despite ongoing regulatory scrutiny in China, bargain hunters are piling in, viewing the dip as a buying opportunity.
However, not all are convinced this is a sustained rebound. Volatility remains high, with the VIX index still above 20. Geopolitical risks, including tariffs and elections in Europe, could derail the momentum. For now, though, the rise suggests investors are regaining confidence, potentially signaling the end of the recent correction phase.
