Covered warrant 2026/08/18: Cautious sentiment

During the week, covered warrant market liquidity improved in terms of trading volume, mainly driven by an increase in the number of outstanding warrants following new issuances. However, trading value declined slightly, while the number of declining warrants outnumbered gainers, reflecting relatively weak market performance. Meanwhile, the underlying market also came under strong correction pressure, with the index falling 2.2% for the week, which partly weighed on the performance of the covered warrant market.
