Hong Kong's biggest international banks, including Goldman Sachs and HSBC, told employees to work from home as Super Typhoon Ragasa hit the city, with winds of up to 195 kilometers per hour. Markets remained open, leading to a rush for hotel rooms near the office to avoid long commutes. The typhoon may delay the trading debut of Zijin Gold International Co.'s $3.2 billion IPO.
