A framework for analysing money moving through Stock Connect, the programmes that let overseas investors trade mainland Chinese shares and mainland investors trade Hong Kong-listed shares. It separates northbound and southbound flows and tracks sector preferences.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to examine Shanghai and Shenzhen Connect flows, compare northbound with southbound activity, track sector allocation, and identify possible cross-border trading signals.
Why use it?
It turns cross-border buying and selling into an indicator of institutional interest and mainland investor preferences.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

hk-connect-flow scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 11d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Stock Connect Fund Flow Analysis

Overview

Analyze capital flows through the Shanghai-Hong Kong and Shenzhen-Hong Kong Stock Connect programs. Northbound flows (foreign capital into A-shares) are a key institutional sentiment indicator for the China market; Southbound flows (mainland capital into Hong Kong) reveal mainland investor preference for HK-listed assets. Together they provide a real-time cross-border capital positioning signal.

Core Concepts

1. Stock Connect Architecture

Channel Direction What It Measures
Shanghai Connect Northbound Foreign → A-shares (SSE) Foreign institutional A-share appetite
Shenzhen Connect Northbound Foreign → A-shares (SZSE) Foreign institutional A-share appetite (growth bias)
Shanghai Connect Southbound Mainland → HK (HKEX) Mainland capital HK allocation
Shenzhen Connect Southbound Mainland → HK (HKEX) Mainland capital HK allocation

Daily quota: Each channel has a daily net buy quota (~RMB 52B / HKD 42B). Quota utilization >50% = strong directional signal.

2. Northbound Flow Analysis (Foreign into A-shares)

Why Northbound matters:

  • Foreign institutions (global funds, sovereign wealth funds, hedge funds) are considered "smart money" in A-shares
  • Northbound holdings represent ~4-5% of A-share free-float market cap — small but marginal price-setters
  • Northbound flow correlates with MSCI China index rebalancing and global EM allocation decisions

Northbound signal framework:

# Daily Northbound net buy signals
def northbound_signal(daily_net_buy_rmb_billion):
    if daily_net_buy_rmb_billion > 10:
        return "strong_foreign_buying"    # Very large single-day inflow
    elif daily_net_buy_rmb_billion > 5:
        return "moderate_foreign_buying"
    elif daily_net_buy_rmb_billion > 0:
        return "mild_foreign_buying"
    elif daily_net_buy_rmb_billion > -5:
        return "mild_foreign_selling"
    elif daily_net_buy_rmb_billion > -10:
        return "moderate_foreign_selling"
    else:
        return "strong_foreign_selling"   # Panic outflow

# Cumulative flow trend (more important than single-day)
def northbound_trend(flows_20d, flows_5d):
    cum_20d = sum(flows_20d)
    cum_5d = sum(flows_5d)

    if cum_20d > 30 and cum_5d > 10:
        return "sustained_accumulation"   # Strong bullish for A-shares
    elif cum_20d < -30 and cum_5d < -10:
        return "sustained_distribution"   # Bearish for A-shares
    elif cum_20d > 0 and cum_5d < 0:
        return "accumulation_pausing"     # Watch for reversal
    elif cum_20d < 0 and cum_5d > 0:
        return "distribution_pausing"     # Possible bottom formation
