Interesting article about Chinese new year in Hong Kong and what people are saying the year may hold (includes a nice slideshow of New Years festivities):

"Hong Kong is preparing to celebrate the lunar new year and the start of the Year of the Rooster.

Geomancers and feng shui masters are much in demand to predict the economic, political and personal fortunes of the year ahead.

The Chinese belief in fate and fortune telling is deep rooted.

It has been practised for thousands of years and in modern-day Hong Kong, it is still a serious business.

A local bank, the CLSA, conducts an annual feng shui economic survey.

In the Year of the Rooster, it says gold is always predominant and it predicts good news for the gold market."
