- Tuesday, May 7, 10:16 PM What global slowdown? Chinese April exports rose 14.7% Y/Y vs. 8.6% expected. Imports gained 16.8% vs. 11.6% expected. The trade surplus clocked in at $18.16B. Bloomberg's Adam Johnson: "Imports AND exports better than forecast; 18 hours ago German factory orders better and U.S. job postings up ... Connect the dots." Shanghai (FXI, CAF) +0.7%, Hong Kong (EWH) +0.8%. 6 Comments [Global & FX]
- Monday, April 22, 11:08 PM China's flash HSBC PMI for April slides to 50.5, missing expectations by a full point and against March's read of 51.6. "New export orders contracted after a temporary rebound in March, suggesting external demand for China's exporters remain weak," says HSBC. "Weaker overall demand has also started to weigh on employment in the manufacturing sector." Shanghai (FXI, CAF) is off 1.5 in early trade. Hong Kong (EWH) -0.9%. 6 Comments [Global & FX]
- Monday, April 22, 3:44 PM Hong Kong home prices could fall up to 25%, according to Sanford Bernstein, after the government stepped up efforts to curb the bubbly market. In early returns, home prices fell 1.4% in the week ended April 14, the 4th consecutive decline and the biggest drop since 2010. Developer shares make up a nice portion of the EWH, +2.6% YTD. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Sunday, April 14, 11:01 PM Chinese Q1 GDP growth disappoints, rising 7.7% Y/Y vs. 8% expected, and slowing from 7.9% in Q4. March industrial production misses expectations of 10% growth, rising just 8.9%. Retail sales, however, beats forecasts, rising 12.6% vs. 12.3% expected. Asia's taking a bit of a tumble, Shanghai -0.6%, and the Hang Seng -1.6%. The aussie (FXA) slides 0.6% to $1.0463. 13 Comments [Global & FX]
- Friday, April 5, 4:02 AM While Japanese shares rose, stocks in the rest of Asia suffered ahead of U.S. nonfarm payroll data and after weekly jobless claims disappointed yesterday. Hong Kong equities fell sharply amid reports of deaths from avian flu, with airline stocks particularly affected. South Korean shares again dropped as North Korea continued with its brinkmanship, while the weak yen hurt auto shares. Hong Kong -2.6%, China closed, India -0.1%, South Korea -1.6%. Comment! [Global & FX, Top Stories, On the Move]
- Friday, March 22, 9:02 AM Mortgage rates are rising in Hong Kong and it could lead to a 20% drop in property prices over the next 2 years, according to Deutsche Bank. On top of higher rates are government efforts at curbing real estate. Developers are responding - cutting prices along with sales and earnings projections. EWH flat YTD. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Monday, March 4, 6:51 AM Shanghai plunges 3.7% after the government further cranks up property tightening measures, with a gauge of property developers falling 9.3%. "When there are new rules like these, it extends far beyond property shares," says an analyst. Industrial Bank -9.1%. FXI -1.8% premarket. Losses extend to Hong Kong, EWH -0.7% premarket, and the States, SPY -0.5%. 11 Comments [Global & FX, On the Move]
- Tuesday, February 26, 7:49 AM Chinese banks (CHIX) tumble more than 2% after front-page commentary in the China Securities Journal suggests monetary policy needs to be tightened. Developers (TAO) doubled that decline as another report says Beijing has completed a draft of property tightening measures. The Hang Seng's (EWH) 1.3% slide puts it in the red for the year. Shanghai -1.4%. FXI -6% YTD. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Friday, February 22, 7:05 AM Along with China renewing its push for property curbs is Hong Kong which last night doubled to 8.5% the transfer tax on property costing more than $258K (likely about 100% of transactions!). This comes following an earlier move to widen the transfer tax to include commercial purchases. EWH +1.9% YTD. 1 Comment [Global & FX]
- Friday, January 18, 7:52 AM FXI +0.6% premarket after China reported speedier than expected Q4 GDP growth overnight. The Shanghai Composite rose 1.4%. The Hang Seng (EWH) +1.1%. A separate report shows home prices rising in 54 out of 70 tracked cities, the most in 20 months. 1 Comment [Global & FX]
- Wednesday, January 9, 10:50 AM International allocations are sharply higher at Windhaven Asset Management - an arm of Schwab and the biggest player in ETF-managed portfolios. Favorites are international real-estate ETFs (WPS an example), Hong Kong (EWH) and Germany (EWG). Domestically, the funds are overweight tech (QQQ). Comment! [Global & FX]
- Monday, December 31, 2012, 11:56 AM More details on iShares' ETF fee hikes: Going to 0.53% from 0.52% (a 1.9% hike) are its Ireland Capped Investable Market Fund (EIRL), Australia Fund (EWA), Canada Fund (EWC), Hong Kong Fund (EWH), Belgium Capped Fund (EWK), Switzerland Fund (EWL), Malaysia Fund (EWM), Netherlands Investable Market Fund (EWN), Spain Fund (EWP), France Fund (EWQ), Singapore Fund (EWS), United Kingdom Fund (EWU), Mexico Investable Market Fund (EWW) and EMU Fund (EZU). 2 Comments [Global & FX]
- Monday, December 31, 2012, 8:47 AM More on the iShares price hikes: Mostly targeted for higher fees is the manager's line of single country ETFs - Brazil (EWZ), Japan (EWJ), Australia (EWA), Hong Kong (EWH), Canada (EWC), and Singapore (EWS), just to name a few of the more popular ones. 3 Comments [Global & FX]
- Wednesday, December 12, 2012, 7:35 AM Hong Kong gets a warning from the IMF, which says it's at risk of an abrupt decline in property prices following a doubling over the past 4 years. The property sector, says the IMF, makes up about half of outstanding loans in the banking system there. EWH +25% YTD. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Tuesday, December 4, 2012, 8:56 AM Index selection matters. The Shanghai Composite - trade is limited to mainlanders - makes headlines for hitting multiyear lows, but Hong's Kong's China Index is up 6% YTD, suggesting foreign investors see value. Also helping in Hong Kong is the higher relative weighting of real estate companies (TAO +52% YTD). On the other hand, struggling miners make up a greater weighting in Shanghai. 1 Comment [Global & FX]
- Friday, November 30, 2012, 8:55 AM A 3% gain in property developers helps halt a slide in Shanghai, +0.9% overnight, but -4.3% for the month. The Shanghai Composite is off 10% YTD, on track for its 3rd consecutive down year. The only positive group is the Property Index, up 11%. China Real Estate ETF: TAO +58.6%. Hong Kong ETF: EWH +23.9% YTD. There are areas of exposure to China doing very well. Comment! [Global & FX]
