After another anonymous article by an “economic oracle” in the People’s Daily describing an "L-shaped" growth trend, Credit Suisse AG is projecting that same forecast to the stock market.
The SSE Composite Index, which keeps track of all stocks (A shares and B shares) that are traded at the Shanghai Stock Exchange, will still trade in channels after mass sell-offs at the beginning of the year. This is despite another economic “communication” like those before the last two runs of declines in Chinese equities, according to the Swiss holding company.
The reference to the L shaped trend by Credit Suisse’ Equity Manager Li Chen was first seen in January, when the People's Daily newspaper printed an interview by an "authoritative person" who forecast “a sustained period” with an L-shaped development trend, rather than a quicker V or U recovery. The announcement from Credit Suisse Group AG comes after the third mysterious communiqué last week also appearing on the front page of the national publication, which is usually reserved for in depth articles covering the movements and actions of the president of the nation, multiplying the interview’s importance.
Michael Lane, Global Co-Head of the Investment Management Division at Shizuoka Capital Wealth Management commented on the state of play on Tuesday, “The general sentiment of the interviews has investors worried more than the actual fine print. The facts communicated in the articles are pretty fundamental. Building up huge debt is very risky and China needs to take a hard look at its underperforming loans.”
Unlike the previous lengthy interviews that appeared in the paper there is little chance this one will be a prelude to large scale sell offs. The SSE Composite Index is predicted to fluctuate between a 2,600 to 3,000 margin, quite close to the current levels of 2,843, as a supply of equities that is fast accelerating is reined in by multiple components such as cheap valuation.
According to Chen, "The primary reasons for stock decline, spoken of in financial circles, differs from the policy changes in the articles by this mysterious expert“, the comments coming despite China's local A-share market reduced markedly after the first two printed interviews.
The first article, this time last year, concentrated on “risk control” and a sell-off was subsequently brought on by deleveraging in the stock market, Chen said, and the second piece came before yuan declines that sent the Chinese stock market on a vicious downturn even though the report followed supply side reforms.

UN’s Monetary Situation Solid
A top UN administration official reported today that their financial circumstance is "solid and positive," taking note of "some stress" with respect to the regions of customary budget and holds.
"The budgetary shape of the UN is by and large stable," said Yukio Takasu, Under-Secretary-General for Management in a press meeting at UN HQ in New York, amid which he additionally noticed some worries with respect to the normal spending plan and holdings.
Mr. Takasu's briefing came after a 6 monthly presentation to the General Assembly’s Fifth Advisory group, which is tasked with managerial and budgetary concerns, and where he concentrated on evaluation issues, unpaid surveyed commitments, accessible money assets and exceptional installments to included States.
His review included subtle elements on the four principle evaluation zones; the general spending plan, UN peacekeeping operations, worldwide tribunals, and the Capital Chief Strategy.
Mr. Takasu highlighted that the Association's financial balances were good toward the end of 2015, aside from the customary spending plan, which demonstrated a deficit of $217 million. This deficit is being subsidized by a "small backup," he said.
"I believe it's reasonable to survey the sufficiency of the stores," he said, including that he had made this point to the General Assembly prior to today. "The customary spending plan is consistently tight in the last quarter of the year, and this is normal in 2016. The inquiry is whether or not the span of the reserve is adequate," he added.
For the 2015 spending plan, Member States were committed to contribute an aggregate of $2.771 billion, an expansion of $159 million from 2014. Installments were $237 million higher in 2015 than in 2014, Mr. Takasu said.
Unpaid surveyed commitments remained at $1.43 billion starting 30 April 2016, down $163 million from the same period the year before.
For peacekeeping operations, which work on a 1 July to 30 June monetary cycle, Mr. Takasu said the aggregate of unpaid appraisals toward the end of 2015 was $976 million, mirroring a decrease of $306 million from the previous year.
“Starting 30 April, new appraisals of $3.9 billion had been issued, of which $2.4 billion stay unpaid,” he said.
He stated that unpaid installments to Member States – which added up to $824 million toward the end of 2015 – were anticipated to drop to $818 million before the end of the year, as an after effect of a continued increase in the speed of installments received for troops, police and hardware.
The UN Secretariat will consolidate the data given by Mr. Takasu today into a report from Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon that will be introduced to the Fifth Council on 11 May.
Michael Lane, Global Co-Head of the Investment Management Division at Shizuoka Capital Wealth Management commented “I think this is excellent news from the UN showing that Member states finances are in great hands moving forward. I’m very confident in the UN’s ability to handle the collective finances responsibly”.
