2012 China macroeconomic annual report - Macroeconomic environment tends to stable

In general, China’s economic growth slowed down in 2012 but still maintained on the stable level and was better than the market expectation. By the end of 2012, GDP has increased by 7.8% y-y to RMB51.93 trillion, which reflected that the growth was quite stable. Although it was lower than the previous years, GDP increased by 2.0% q-q by at the end of 4Q;

The foreign reserve continued to increase by 4.10% y-y to US$3.31 trillion accumulatively in Dec 2012. Considering such growth rate is the lowest in the latest six years, we believe China’s foreign reserve will increase faster in 1H2013;

CPI decreased month on month in 1H2012, but rebounded slightly in 2H2012. By the end of Dec 2012, China’s CPI has increased by 2.5% y-y, the highest in the recent seven months owing to the higher meat index being realized since June 2012. Apparently, we believe CPI will increase in 2013 under the recovery of economic environment, representing the larger inflationary pressure for China.

By the end of Dec 2012, 1-year deposit and lending interest rates of Chinese financial institutions have maintained at 3% and 6% respectively. China still exercises monetary easing policies according to current internal and external macroeconomic environment. However, the PBOC may start to increase the interest rate if China’s inflationary pressures increase obviously in 2013. We expect it will happen at least in 2H2013;

The growth rate of M1 dropped largely while M2 maintained stable relatively. According to the data of the PBOC at the end of Dec 2012, China’s M1 and M2 increased by 6.49% and 14.39% y-y respectively;

The FDI went down due to the weak overseas market in 2012. By the end of Dec 2012, China’s accumulated FDI has amounted to US$111.72 billion, decreased by 3.70% y-y. Newly-added monthly FDI registered US$1.172 billion with the y-y decrease of 4.25%;

Deposit of residents grew in 2012 but RMB loans of financial institutions dropped in 2H2012. By the end of Dec 2012, RMB loans of Chinese financial institutions have reached RMB62.99 trillion with the y-y growth rate of 14.96%. However, newly-added monthly loans decreased significantly by 37.99% y-y;

Morning Commentary

- STI: +0.02% to 3288.1 - SET: +0.75% to 1540.1 - JCI: +0.40% to 4651.1 - KLCI: +0.50% to 1622.1 - HSCEI: -0.95% to 11317.1 - Hang Seng: -0.54% to 22782.4 - Nikkei 225+0.68% to 11385.9 - ASX200: +0.70% to 3336.2 - India NIFTY: -0.03% to 5850.33 - S&P500: +0.88% to 1515.6 MARKET OUTLOOK: By Ng Weiwen, Macro Analyst Nikkei 225: A breakout (and hence attractive trading opportunity) is on the cards for the Nikkei 225. The Nikkei 225 and USDJPY has trading within a range in recent session. For the Nikkei 225, it might be an opportune time to enter tactical trading positions ahead of this week's nomination of the next BoJ Governor - the key event risk that will trigger a breakout. Markets view candidates Iwata as the most dovish, followed by Kuroda and Muto. Trading Idea: So with a short-term trading horizon, clients can consider a tactical long position if Iwata is appointed as that will a big negative for the JPY (Japanese Yen) and consequently likely a positive for the Nikkei. On the other end of the spectrum, clients can consider a tactical short position –using CFDs- if Muto is appointed as that might disappoint some Nikkei bulls. Regardless of who the next BoJ Governor will be, do note that the Nikkei might pull back from its recent high after a short bout of breakout as there is a significant probability that markets might ‘sell the fact’ once the announcement is made. Nonetheless, on a medium term investment horizon, we are cautiously optimistic about Japan equities on account of the factors reiterated most recently on this page (Feb 19). [ETF: Nomura ETF Nikkei 225; CFD: Japan 225 Index JPY100 CFD (Nikkei 225)] HSCEI, HSI: Selling pressure is likely to intensify in the near term for the HSCEI and HSI (consistent with what we have been guiding on this page) after both indices slipped below their 50dma support levels on account of further property tightening measures. Specifically, beginning Sat (23 Feb), Hong Kong will see a doubling of stamp duties -applied to all property transactions, coupled with lower LTV ratios. Property curbs are also on the cards for China on the back of an increase in home prices which will likely prompt the government to continue with tightening measures to rein in increases in property prices. Clients might want to consider short positions in H Shares Index HKD5 CFD, Hong Kong 40 Index HKD5 CFD for near-term trading. STI: Consistent with what we guided in our morning commentary last Fri, the STI 'hanged precariously below its 10dma'. Looking ahead, the STI is likely to continue treading along the 10dma, pending the outcome of the macro risk events ahead. Near-term support at 3250 level. 3319 (52-week high) will be the immediate resistance level, followed by 3400 psychological resistance level and subsequently 3800 major key resistance. SG Fixed Income: UK lost its AAA credit rating, with Moody's reducing its domestic and foreign currency bond ratings by one notch. The downgrade was not entirely unexpected. Recall we have opined in our GMAS reports that traditional safe havens (Treasuries, Gilts) have dubious credit quality. Singapore is now one of the few triple-A rated sovereigns that has a stable outlook (i.e. not at risk of downgrade). Thus, Singapore government bonds continue to offer an attractive proposition to international investors, with currency appreciation gains to boot. Market Outlook for the Week Ahead: Markets will likely get jittery this week in view of the macro risk events ahead: (i) 24th -25thFeb Italian elections (which is still evolving dynamically at the time of this writing). A governing majority by Berlusconi (though not our base case scenario) will cast doubt on Italian reform commitments. (ii) Political gridlock (again!) in negotiations over the impending 1st March sequestration in the US. Any pull back in equity prices -on account of macro uncertainties- offer an attractive point of entry to accumulate our OWs on China - Hong Kong (compelling valuations), Singapore (attractive dividend yield of 3.3% and construction boom), Thailand and Philippines (resilient domestic demand). (All equity indices mentioned in this note are tradable with Phillip CFDs or ETFs)

MACRO DATA In UK, BOE plans to sign a deal on a 3 year yuan swap with PBOC, the central bank of China, to finance trade and direct investment between the two countries. The UK Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne said to cement London as a western hub for the yuan market. A separate report shows that UK lost its AAA credit rating by Moody’s due to its weak outlook for economic growth. The cut is likely to increase political pressure on George Osborne to scale back his fiscal squeeze as the economic recovery struggles to gain traction. The U.K. economy shrank 0.3 percent in the fourth quarter of last year from the prior three- month period, leaving the country on the brink of an unprecedented triple-dip recession. In China, 53 out of 70 major cities reported m-m gains in new home price in Jan, compared to 54 in Dec. On y-y basis, 53 out of the 70 major cities reported y-y gains, significantly higher than the 40 reading in Dec. The rising new home price adds case to the State’s Council’s reiteration of steadfast effort in curbing housing market, which has sent SHCOMP index to plunge by 4.86%, marking the biggest weekly loss in 20 months. A separate report announced that the nation will expand its short-selling program on 28 Feb by allowing selected brokerages to borrow shares from institutional investors. We do not expect much selling pressure from the expansion of short selling program as China’s equity market is moderately undervalued according to the low P/Es and the economic recovery is likely to continue. In Hong Kong, the government doubled the sales tax on property costing more than HK$2 mil and targeted commercial real estate for the first time in order to curb the bubble risks in the city’s real estate market. And the Hong Kong’s Monetary Authority also announced to tighten mortgage terms for commercial properties and parking spaces. Currently registering the world’s highest housing prices, Hong Kong’s property market remains subject to inflating pressure due to the huge influx of mainland wealthy buyers and low interest rate environment. The newly announced tightening measures have shown the government’s determination to curb housing prices.

Singapore The benchmark STI closed little changed to 3,288.13 (+0.02%). The 4.3bn

shares traded were worth S$1.7bn in value. Our Head of Research initiated on Boustead Singapore with a Buy

recommendation and TP of S$1.80. We believe that Geospatial part of the business has a very wide economic moat and would continue to be a key driver of the company’s earnings in the years to come.

NOL reported a disappointing set of results, which led to our downgrade of our recommendation on the stock to Neutral. Wilmar’s results came in 4% above our expectations (15% above consensus), but our analyst believes that the stock is fairly valued at the current price.

Top picks for the year are Pan United (Buy, TP: S$0.88), SIAEC (Buy, TP: S$6.10) & Capitaland (Accumulate, TP: S$4.05). Pan United is a dominant supplier to the construction industry in Singapore and we expect the company to perform well given the strong pipeline of infrastructure work over the next few years. Although current price has overshot our TP, and may experience short term profit taking, we look forward to 4q12 results to reassess our TP. SIAEC is a key beneficiary of the aviation growth story in the region and offers excellent dividend yields. Capitaland would be a beneficiary of the stabilisation of property prices and bottoming out of economic conditions in China.

Indonesia

The Jakarta Composite Index (JCI) advanced in modest pace on Friday (22/02), as stock markets in Asia rebounded after prior plunges on concerns of the continuation of US Federal Reserve’s easing policy. The JCI gained 18.719 points, or 0.40%, to close at 4,651.123. The gain included five of the 9 major industry groups, led by financial sector that rose 1.39%, followed by construction, property, and real estate sector which advanced 0.87%, and basic industry sector added 0.58%. LQ45 – the blue-chip stock index – added 3.581 points, or 0.45%, at 794.282. More than 130 shares advanced, 109 shares fell, and 224 shares stagnated Friday on the Indonesia Stock Exchange, where regular market volume reached 7.23 billion shares worth IDR 5.35 trillion. Foreign investors accumulated net purchases totaled at IDR 1.057 trillion.

Benchmark index of Indonesian stocks will likely move higher today, as higher closes on US stock markets on Friday (22/02) may lift sentiments in Asia. We estimate the Jakarta Composite Index (JCI) to move higher, with support and resistance at 4,618 and 4,668 respectively.

Australia

On Friday, the Australian share market partially reversed its big sell-off with a solid finish after the Reserve Bank's positive comments about the economy. The benchmark S&P/ASX200 index was up 38 points or 0.76 per cent to 5,018.1.

Today, the Australian market looks set to continue its move upwards following Wall Street's lead which gained on renewed confidence that the US Federal Reserve stimulus program will continue. The SFE Futures 200 is pointing upwards 46 points or 0.92 per cent to 5,039.

In equities news, Patties Foods and IOOF Holdings are expected to post first half results while Caltex Australia and Spark Infrastructure Trust are due to announce full year results.

No major local economic news is expected for Monday, though the market will look offshore to the China HSBC Flash Manufacturing PMI at 12:45pm local time.

Local stocks slumped, as investors concerning that the Fed may stop or cut the size of QE policy. The HSI and HSCEI dropped 124 points and 109 points to 22782 and 11317 respectively. Market volume was 65.47 billion.

We believe the market is going to consolidate, as some of the technical indicators are showing the HSI is overbuying, investors are suggested to stand on sideline and wait for a clear trading signal.

Technically, the HSI is expected to gain a support from 22500 level, major resistance will be 23000 level.

Market News

US U.S. companies' capital spending plans are holding up, and mostly exceeding Wall Street forecasts, in the face of policy concerns

created by arguments in Washington over the fiscal cliff, the debt ceiling and now automatic spending cuts. Their willingness to spend on new offices, plants and machinery, as well as a pickup in deal making, shows that they are starting to dig into the massive amounts of cash that has been collecting more dust than interest on their balance sheets. That could prove a welcome counterpunch to a softer outlook for spending by consumers and government. A Thomson Reuters analysis shows that for 2013, more Standard & Poor's 500 firms are forecasting capital expenditures that exceeded analysts' expectations than at any time in the past four years. Recent U.S. government data showed a rise in equipment and software spending in the final quarter of 2012. (Source: Reuters)

Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke is preparing for a most sensitive task: telling jittery investors who have grown accustomed to the U.S. central bank's ultra-easy monetary policies that things will eventually have to change. Bernanke appears committed to the Fed's bond-buying stimulus right now. But the unprecedented communications challenge of laying groundwork for a shift in policy, while still assuring investors that rates will continue to stay low, could come in just a few months if the U.S. recovery continues apace. In speeches around the country, other Fed officials have already begun discussing the eventual reversal of some of the most supportive policies the United States has ever seen. And investors are increasingly parsing minutes of the central bank's policy meetings for hints on just how long the $85 billion in monthly asset purchases will last. Ideally, Bernanke - who is set to testify to Congress on Tuesday and Wednesday, and speak in San Francisco on Friday - would need to say little in the months ahead. The improving economy should do the lion's share of the work in preparing markets, paving the way for a predictable and smooth turn in policy. (Source: Reuters)

Singapore National Development Minister Khaw Boon Wan yesterday sketched out what Woodlands Regional Centre will be like. With 100 hectares

of space available for development, Woodlands Regional Centre is a key component in reshaping northern Singapore laid out in the recent Land Use plan. It is expected to serve as a major commercial hub in the north and will take about 15-20 years to fully develop, Mr Khaw said during a community event at Woodlands Ring Road. But he noted that this time frame for development is in line with the government's prior efforts to spread the population out and bring jobs closer to home. The first such effort started in Tampines in 1992, with the development of Tampines Regional Centre. Jurong Regional Centre was next, launched in 2008. Woodlands Regional Centre will tap the location's unique features, such as waterfront areas and proximity to Johor Baru, Mr Khaw said. When completed, it will comprise two precincts: Woodlands North Coast and Woodlands Central. (Source: Business Times)

A handful of Singapore-listed companies could suffer modest translational costs because of the weak Japanese yen, though a number of

them have hedges in place to nullify the impact, analysts say. Real estate investment trusts (Reits) Saizen and ParkwayLife, high-tech warehouse developer Global Logistic Properties (GLP), airline service provider SATS and medical device maker Biosensors International Group were among the counters highlighted by analysts. The yen has been depreciating since the fourth quarter of 2012 amid aggressive efforts by the Bank of Japan (BOJ) to spur the Japanese economy. One Singapore dollar was worth 63.4 yen at the start of last October, but was worth 75.2 yen as at 5.30pm last Friday - a 19 per cent change. Companies that derive a substantial amount of their revenue in yen will be affected if the purchasing power of the yen decreases, analysts said. For listed companies, the impact is most clearly felt when those yen-denominated revenues are translated into another currency, whether for reporting or to pay out dividends.

China’s new leaders will this week consider plans to revamp the central government as part of efforts to streamline bureaucracy and boost an economy that’s recovering from the slowest growth in 13 years. The Communist Party’s 25-member Politburo endorsed draft reforms that will be discussed by the broader Central Committee on Feb. 26-28, the official Xinhua News Agency reported on Feb. 23 without giving details. The changes will be approved at the annual session of the nation’s legislature next month when Li Keqiang, the party’s No. 2, succeeds Wen Jiabao as premier and General Secretary Xi Jinping takes over from Hu Jintao as president.

China will raise fuel prices for the first time since September amid a gain in oil benchmarks since the start of the year. Gasoline will increase by 300 yuan ($48) a metric ton and diesel by 290 yuan a ton effective tomorrow, the National Development and Reform Commission said in a statement on its website today.

China will expand its short-selling program on Feb. 28 by allowing selected brokerages to borrow shares from institutional investors, the

Shanghai Securities News reported. Eleven brokerages will be able to borrow shares in a pre- approved pool of 90 publicly traded companies, according to the report, which cited China Securities Finance Corp. The state- owned agency was set up to provide securities firms with funds and stock for short-selling and margin trading. The expansion of short-selling -- in which investors sell borrowed shares in the expectation of profiting when they fall - - will increase the efficiency of China’s equity market, help manage risks and boost brokers’ revenue, the report said.

Property industry in East Java is projected to grow by 25 percent to 30 percent in the first half of 2013. The industry association, Real Estate Indonesia (“REI”) said fastest growth is expected in Gresik, Sidoarjo, Jember and Pasuruan. In 2012, the actual house construction in East Java reached 13,000 units, lower than the target of 25,000 units. The underachievement was due to difficulties in obtaining main land certificate in the province. Some certificates took two years to complete, (Source: Indonesia Finance Today)

Sri Lanka An upgrade to Sri Lanka's 50,000 barrels refinery a day involving doubling of is capacity and boosting light distillate yields could cost up

to 1.5 billion US dollars, officials said. Petroleum minister Anura Yapa told reporters Saturday that feasibility and front-end-engineering-design (FEED) has already been completed for the project. Sri Lanka's only refinery owned by state-run Ceylon Petroleum Corporation was built in the 1960s and yields a low proportion of light distillates and higher proportions of furnace oil compared to technology available today. When crack margins (the gap between crude and refined products) narrow it is sometimes saves money for the country to shut the refinery and import refined products direct.

Sri Lanka's central bank will look at "the need for raising" shareholder ceilings imposed on banks, a media report said, quoting Central Bank Governor Nivard Cabraal. Reuters, a news agency quoted Cabraal as saying on the sidelines of an investor meeting in India that, for the moment existing rules shall apply. Under Sri Lanka's existing law a single shareholder limit of 10 percent applies to banks though related parties can go up to 15 percent. Special permission had also been given for some banks to allow higher shareholders limits. But there are also listed banks with higher shareholder limits, where existing shareholders have been given deadlines to sell down. Several state entities have also bought stock in private banks, exceeding the limit. (Source: www.lankabusinessonline.com)

Australia Departing BHP Billiton chief executive Marius Kloppers says the worst mistake of his 5 1/2-year tenure was not to do with acquisitions

but a decision to pour billions of dollars into the Worsley alumina plant south of Perth. "We spotted a technological change in aluminium and we made a great decision to not continue to invest in aluminium," Mr Kloppers told ABC's Inside Business program. (Source: The Australian)

Senior bankers have sounded the alarm about a potentially "dangerous" relaxation of credit standards in business lending, as the long-dormant segment starts to show signs of life.

Chevron said it would buy Australian shale gas assets from Beach Energy for up to $US349 million, placing a bold bet on the potential to replicate the US boom in unconventional gas output in the Outback. Chevron, the second-biggest US oil company behind ExxonMobil, said it has agreed to buy up to 60 per cent of two blocks in the Cooper Basin covering an estimated 810,000 acres.
