New World ramps up luxury home sales in Hong Kong and mainland China
The Hong Kong-based developer, which is undergoing the
biggest debt workout in three generations of ownership by the Cheng family, will hold a ready-for-occupancy sale for
The Pavilia Forest in Kai Tak in September, the company said on Thursday.
'This quarter, three luxury residential projects will be delivered, steadily accelerating capital recycling,' it said, noting that Hong Kong's primary property market was strong.
More than 600 flats have been sold in The Pavilia Forest project, developed jointly by NWD and Far East Consortium, generating more than HK$4.2 billion in sales, the company said. The project will be handed over to buyers in September.

Morgan Stanley bullish on Labubu maker Pop Mart's shares despite 10% slump
The decline in Labubu-maker Pop Mart International Group's shares of as much as 10 per cent over the last month amid growth concerns presents a buying opportunity, analysts say, noting that the company is well positioned to capture rising global demand. Advertisement 'Some investors may perceive that Pop Mart's momentum has stalled somewhat since Labubu v3, but it continues to launch popular new products,' Morgan Stanley wrote in a report on Friday. 'For reference, when Pop Mart launched Labubu v1 at end-2023 and v2 in mid-2024, they were key sales drivers, but it took time for investors to recognise that.' The US investment bank added that while store queues and resale prices have moderated, the metrics do not reflect weaker demand, as most of Pop Mart's products were mass-market items rather than limited editions. Increasing supply through restocking 'will likely lead to a sustainable balance', it added. Pop Mart's extensive direct-to-consumer coverage – which accounts for 90 to 95 per cent of all sales – also gives the company access to granular, real-time data that 'can effectively indicate when to reduce supply', Morgan Stanley said.

Once selling for as much as tens of thousands of yuan on Xianyu, a popular Chinese second-hand online marketplace, Pop Mart's latest iteration of its 'Labubu Big Into Energy' series was now selling for an average of 150 yuan (US$21) per toy, about 50 per cent higher than its original price. Advertisement Morgan Stanley expects Pop Mart's sales to reach US$4.3 billion in 2025 and US$6 billion in 2026, with overseas operating profit likely to account for up to 60 per cent of the total this year, 'making it a true global consumer play'.

How the trade war is turbocharging an American rare earth mine: ‘it's all changed'
For Joshua Ballard, the US' trade war against China has been a game-changer. The CEO of USA Rare Earth – a company launched in 2019 with the goal of reviving America's rare earth magnet supply chain – was having a hard time raising capital from Wall Street until a few months ago. China has dominated the rare earths sector for decades, with its firms having a huge competitive advantage due to their lower costs and massive capacity, making the American company's vision a tough sell to investors. But then came US President Donald Trump's return to office. After a US tariff blitz led Beijing to impose export controls on seven rare earth elements, America's vulnerability was exposed in vivid fashion as a string of blue-chip American companies warned that a lack of magnets could soon disrupt their production All of a sudden, the investment environment 'all changed', Ballard said, and the CEO has been quick to take advantage. 'We're looking at how we can accelerate,' he told the Post in an interview near his home in the San Francisco Bay Area. 'We want to be a major player in this.'
