AI fuels boom as Hong Kong exports soar 53% to record HK$641 billion in June

Hong Kong's exports surged by 53.4% year-on-year in June, reaching a record HK$641.1 billion, the highest increase in 42 years. This growth was driven by strong overseas demand for AI-related products, following a 40.8% rise in May. The last time exports exceeded a 50% increase in a month was in March 1987. Provisional figures released by the Census and Statistics Department on Monday revealed a significant climb in total export value, reflecting a robust recovery in external demand. A government spokesman noted that this growth also indicates improvements in global economic conditions.
