- Monday, February 11, 8:19 AM The Shanghai exchange has been a notorious retail (suckers, to many) market, but the recent big rally is of note for its heavy volume even as the growth in newly opened accounts slows. It could suggest an influx of institutional - i.e., more stable money - coming into the market. Shanghai is closed for the week. FXI -1.5%, CAF +11.5% YTD. Comment! [Global & FX]

Friday, February 8, 6:17 PM
The week's ETF movers - Gainers: VNM +4.3%. FCG +2.3%. BNO +1.7%. UUP +1.4%. TLT +1.4%.
ETF Losers: FXI -4.7%. EPI -4.2%. GDXJ -3.3%. KOL -3.3%. DBA -2.7%. Comment! [On the Move] - Friday, February 8, 7:03 AM Shanghai climbs 0.6%, with solid (but likely distorted) trade data and inflation slowing the excuses to buy. More: Passenger-vehicle sales climbed 49% Y/Y in January to 1.73M, beating estimates of 1.5M. Most Chinese ETFs, including the popular FXI, are missing the big rally in Shanghai (28% since Dec. 1). One that's not is CAF, +41% since then. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Thursday, February 7, 4:02 PM A look beneath the hood of Schwab's (SCHW) recently unveiled lineup of 105 commission-free ETFs shows an impressive breadth of asset class coverage, including currency, physical metals and equal-weight sector ETFs not previously available for commission-free trading. Notably absent: iShares single country funds, 10 of which are available among the 101 ETFs TD Ameritrade (AMTD) offers commission-free. Comment!
- Wednesday, February 6, 7:35 AM Shanghai climbs just 0.1% overnight, but it's enough for the index's 8th straight gain, and now a 28% advance since early December. Volume is up sharply too as Beijing does what it can to encourage a flow of money into common stocks. The latest was last week's expansion of the number of stocks available for margin financing and short-selling. FXI -0.3% premarket. 2 Comments [Global & FX]
- Tuesday, January 29, 7:05 AM The Shanghai Composite enters bull market territory, with last night's 0.5% gain putting the index up 20% since Dec. 3. In addition to ideas the slide in economic growth has bottomed out are the continuing efforts of Beijing to funnel domestic and overseas money into common stocks. The latest is chatter individual Taiwanese will be allowed to invest in Chinese shares. 1 Comment [Global & FX]
- Monday, January 28, 6:59 AM The Shanghai Composite +2.4% overnight to a 7-month high, with this weekend's strong print in industrial company profits a nice excuse to buy. Sany Heavy - the country's largest maker of construction equipment - posted a 5.2% gain. The financial index rises 4.8%, with securities firms continuing to benefit from Beijing's moves to encourage investment in common stocks. 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]
- Monday, January 14, 11:46 AM China's blowout export number last week is being met with skepticism at several banks which says the print doesn't jibe with the more subdued reports of trading partners. One of Doug Kass' 2013 surprises is a NYT expose showing all Chinese data to be little more than a fabrication. 1 Comment [Global & FX]
- Monday, January 14, 6:57 AM FXI gains 1.1% premarket after Shanghai rockets 3.1% thanks to the government's continued efforts to boost the appeal of stocks. The latest is word Beijing could vastly increase the size of two foreign investment programs. Leading the gains were the brokers, +4.8%. 1 Comment [Global & FX, On the Move]
- Friday, January 11, 7:18 AM Shanghai has its biggest fall in awhile, sliding 1.8% with higher than expected inflation as good an excuse as any for selling a market that's gone up nearly 20% in a straight line since early December. Leading the decline were property developers, off 3.8%. FXI -1% premarket. 1 Comment [Global & FX]
- Tuesday, January 8, 5:25 PM Gundlach: His best idea remains long Japanese stocks and short the yen, though he expects a nice correction after big moves in both. The Nikkei could easily go up another 10% without being close to overvalued. He adds Chinese stocks to the list as well, though as with the Nikkei, Shanghai has had a big recent run and is due for a correction. Comment! [Quick Ideas]
- Monday, January 7, 3:00 PM For those interested in Chinese stocks, but wanting to state away from the state-owned mega caps favored by FXI or GXC, Dennis Hudacheck recommends the China Consumer ETF (CHIQ) and the Guggenheim China Small Cap ETF (HAO) - really more of a mid-cap fund. For true small cap exposure, there's the MSCI China Small Cap Fund (ECNS). Performance comparison. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Friday, January 4, 7:29 AM Shanghai gains 0.4% in its first session of the new year, even as decliners led gainers by a 2:1 margin. Leading gains were the insurers - Ping An +4% - after regulators moved to allow them to set up mutual funds. FXI -1% premarket. Comment! [Global & FX]
- Friday, December 28, 2012, 4:08 PM CNBC provides a list of the worst financial predictions of 2012. Among them: Facebook would turn in a great IPO; China would see a hard landing; Greece would leave the eurozone; the U.S. bond bubble would burst, and the U.S. would see a double-dip recession. Among the reasons Cullen Roche thinks the predictions flopped: Europe is too interdependent to let Greece walk, the U.S. government has no insolvency risk, and "everyone wants to predict the next big financial crisis." Comment! [U.S. Economy, Global & FX]
- Friday, December 28, 2012, 7:22 AM A rally in Shanghai rebar prices - up 8.9% in Q4, the best performance in 2 years - combines with an even bigger move in iron ore, convincing some of a renewal in the Chinese property boom. Stocks in Shanghai +1.2% last night to the highest close since early summer, and putting the market in the green for 2012. 5 Comments [Global & FX]
