Chinese Bond Markets – An Introduction
- While foreign investors have flocked to Chinese equities because of performance and correlation considerations, there is relatively less awareness of Chinese bond markets. This paper serves as an introduction to structure, trading venues, investor base and performance of Chinese bond markets for outside investors.
- After more than a quarter century of development, Chinese bond markets have evolved into a RMB 15 trillion (more than USD 2 trillion) market across a broad variety of credit, maturity and investor profiles.
- The market has a multi-layered structure, comprised of the national interbank market, the exchange market and bank counters, with the interbank market being the dominant trading venue.
- Foreign institutional investors can invest in Chinese bonds by seeking regulator approval for QFII quota or access to the interbank market. Product creators and asset managers have hitherto focused on bringing out higher margin equity products. This may change as global investors seek to participate in the growth of Chinese capital markets without volatility of equities.
- Over the five years ending 2008, the Chinese bonds in aggregate returned 8.1% annually in USD terms as measured by S&P/CITIC Composite Bond Index, a rate higher than those of U.S. and European bonds. RMB appreciation was a key return driver.
- Correlations of Chinese bonds with U.S. and European bonds have been less than 10%. Correlation with Chinese equities is a low 1.6%.
- Prospects for future evolution of the market include broadening of corporate bond markets, expansion of derivatives and risk management tools, and possible development of municipal bonds.

The Philippines announced it will send its biggest warship, a World War II vessel, to a disputed part of the South China Sea after China said it was deploying one of its new coastal patrol vessels in the waters.
ReplyDeleteThe BRP Rajah Humabon, used by the U.S. against German submarines in World War II, will patrol around Scarborough Shoal, within waters claimed by China, the Philippine Star reported on its website. China sent the Haixun 31, a 3,000 ton vessel with a helicopter landing pad, to inspect foreign ships and oil facilities in disputed waters of the South China Sea, Hong Kong’s Ta Kung Pao newspaper reported yesterday.
“The Navy conducts regular offshore patrols and we should not connect the deployment of Rajah Humabon to the deployment of this maritime vessel of China,” Eduardo Batac, spokesman of the Philippines’ department of defense, said in a press briefing today. “It’s part of routine patrols that are being conducted by the Navy.”
Tensions in one of the world’s busiest shipping lanes have increased as the Philippines and Vietnam press ahead with oil and gas projects against China’s wishes. Exxon Mobil Corp., Talisman Energy Inc. (TLM), Forum Energy Plc (FEP) and Vietnam Oil & Gas Group, known as PetroVietnam, have operations in areas of the South China Sea claimed by China.
Update on making a mediocre thinker president because he is "a man of color" and succeeded a fool.
ReplyDeleteAnyone think Red China would prevent one of their premier manufactures from opening a new expansion factory in another Chinese province, creating thousands of new jobs in the process?
Would the greatest capitalist country in the world stop Boeing from creating 3000 jobs in the state of South Carolina?
Only the dumbest president ever would put up with such an action with 9.1% unemployment.

ReplyDeleteYou should weep dhrw.
Deductions are allowed. First in most cases, the full estate can pass to the wife without paying taxes. Second, since 2005, those same state taxes you weep about are deductible.
The tax is charged on that portion of the estates over $5 million, $10 million when the spouse is counted.
I assume as a farmer you have been receiving US crop subsidies and don't complain about them.
So evidently you are sitting on property worth $5 - $10 million and you can't afford to replace the back window in the Mustang.
Yeah, I'd weep too.
.

ReplyDeleteShould have said, "...$5 - $10 million minimum' and can't afford to fix the back window on the Mustang."

Which is exactly the same thing,
ReplyDeleteShithead, because there's inflation built into the system.

When the estate passes to the wife upon my demise, it won't do me a damn bit of good for buying a jet boat.

They are Q but I'd rather not pay the state tax and forego the deduction.
ReplyDeleteYes, I received farm subsidies. Not much now.
I've stated here many times aid to farmers should be targeted to those actually farming, and with a means test, and not to the landlords.

ReplyDeleteI haven't looked at the estate tax issue in some time but I thought they were trying to come up with something to help with small family-owned investments.
Regardless, the tax isn't designed for guys like you even if you get caught up in it.
It is for the top 1% of earners and those numbers are relatively small.
These are the guys many call the 'producing class'; but in fact a good portion of them never "earned" anything. They either had it given to them by dad or they accumulated it through investment, guys like Soros, currancy speculator and manipulator.
These guys accumulate money but they produce nothing tangible except more money. People will still argue, "Hey, regardless how, he earned the money, he deserves to keep it." What they forget are the many tax loopholes these people have been granted over the years making it much easier to actually accumulate more funds.
The recent lack of action on any legislation regulating the hedge fund industry is a testiment to the power these guys and their money wield.
You might also weep over the fact that these guys can afford armies of tax lawyers and lobbyists and you are stuck with the little lady from Moscow dhrw.

No, inflation cannot be conflated with time. The fact that:
Average home equity plunged from more than 61% at the start of 2001 to 38% in the January-March quarter this year, the Federal Reserve said in a report Thursday. That drop comes as home prices in big metro areas have reached their lowest level since 2002.
Factual analysis proves that point. Time passed and there was deflation, not inflation, in property values.
If your accountant told you such a thing, that time passing = inflation, and you bought it, little wonder you cannot get the window in your car replaced.
Both of you fellas, still living in the 20th century, time has passed you by.

Total Federal tax receipts, as a percentage of GDP has been under 15% for the last two years and is projected at 14.4%, this year.

Tax receipts have not been at such a low level of the GDP, since 1950.
61 years ago.
During the Reagan tenure, a tad over 18% of GDP looks to be the average for Federal revenue.
When Clinton/Newt ran a surplus ...
Federal revenue was 19.9% of GDP.
2009, 2010, 2011 projected ... 14.4% of GDP.
Today, with total Federal revenues, measured as % of GDP, are at a 61 year low, the Federals are facing a cash flow crisis.

The report cites estimates of what price it might take to get large volumes of shale gas out of the ground. Some of the easiest and highest flowing wells may make a profit at current prices around $4 mcf. But harder-to-get gas will likely cost more than $7 mcf and possibly as much as $11.50 mcf. What's clear is that ramping up shale gas production won't be cheap. As my driller friend opined, "We can have cheap natural gas or we can have plentiful natural gas, but we're not going to have cheap, plentiful natural gas."
ReplyDeleteBut just how plentiful will that natural gas be even with high prices? Forecasts from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA)--which have tended to be too optimistic--suggest that shale gas will only lift U.S. natural gas production modestly between now and 2035.

The NYTimes is off and running with the Fannie Mae story.

Most political scandals involve people who are not really enmeshed in the Washington establishment — people like Representative Anthony Weiner or Representative William Jefferson. Most scandals involve spectacularly bad behavior — like posting pictures of your private parts on the Web or hiding $90,000 in cash in your freezer.
But the most devastating scandal in recent history involved dozens of the most respected members of the Washington establishment. Their behavior was not out of the ordinary by any means.
For that reason, the Fannie Mae scandal is the most important political scandal since Watergate. It helped sink the American economy. It has cost taxpayers about $153 billion, so far. It indicts patterns of behavior that are considered normal and respectable in Washington

They also generally applaud Obama's 'outreach to business' but fail to mention that Bill Daley, Obama's current Chief of Staff, was a board member at Fannie Mae.

Ah, the article was about the misery index--
ReplyDeleteWhen it comes to measuring the combination of unemployment and inflation, it doesn’t get much more miserable than this.
In fa
ct, misery, as measured in the unofficial Misery Index that simply totals the unemployment and inflation rates, is at a 28-year high, reflective of how weak the economic recovery has been and how far there is to go.
The index, first compiled during the soaring inflation days of the 1970s by economist Arthur Okun, is registering a nausea-inducing 12.7—9.1 percent for unemployment and 3.6 percent for annualized inflation—a number not seen since 1983. The index has been above 10 since November 2009 and had been under double-digits from June 1993 through May 2008.
