Credited from: REUTERS

  • Bloks, a Chinese toymaker, saw its shares rise by 82% on the first day of trading in Hong Kong, reflecting strong demand.
  • The company successfully raised HK$1.67 billion ($215 million), pricing at the top of its market range.
  • Local investors placed bids that were 6,000 times the available shares, indicating high popularity for the offering.
  • This positive debut contrasts with a broader market downturn, where IPOs in Hong Kong raised under $6 billion last year.
  • The trend of "emotional consumption" in younger consumers shifts focus from luxury goods to affordable collectibles like those offered by Bloks and peer company Pop Mart.
