Slow week for trades as reporting season approaches

Insider deals remained low last week, with just 28 transactions worth HK$5.5 million based on filings made to the stock exchange for the period February 18 to 22. The figures were not far off the previous week's 2-day totals of 13 trades worth HK$5.1 million.

Low activity of the past two weeks is likely due to the busy reporting period from March to April as executives are banned from trading in their firms' shares one to two months prior to the announcement of results.
