Abstract

Executive Summary. The main objective of this study is to examine the impact of real estate prices on real estate stock prices in Hong Kong. Real estate-related firms account for over 30% of Hong Kong's stock market capitalization. The real estate markets are therefore, potentially, major determinants of changes in real estate stock prices.

The results in this study make it easier to understand whether or not diversification can be achieved with different types of real estate.
