Legislator Christopher Cheung Wah-fung issues call for longer HKEx lunch break

Christopher Cheung Wah-fung, the newly elected legislator representing stockbrokers, has urged the Hong Kong stock exchange (HKEx) to restore the 90-minute lunch break formerly taken by the market.

In March, the exchange cut the market lunch break to one hour. This followed changes last year that led to the market opening half an hour earlier and the then two-hour lunch break being cut back to 90 minutes. The changes resulted in the market staying open for 5½ hours trading instead of four in a bid to match international practice.
