Posted at 13/8/2013 20:53 by tpaulbeaumont hxxp://www.scribd.coHow Badly Flawed isChinese Economic Data? The Opening Bid is $1 Trillion By:Christopher Balding Associate Professor HSBC Business School Peking University cbalding@phbs.pku.ed Key Facts According to the National Bureau of Statistics China (NBSC), the price of private housing in Chinarose by a total of 8.14% between 2000 and 2011 and only 5.99% in urban areas, where Chinesewere moving to in large numbers. According to the NBSC, the annual price of private housing in rural areas grew at 1.67%, morethan three times faster than prices in urban areas at 0.53%. According to the NBSC, the price increase of renting outpaced the change in the price of privatehousing by nearly 50%, making it significantly more advantageous to purchase an apartmentbetween 2000 and 2011 in China. According to the NBSC, only 12% of Chinese households are renters, skewing inflation data. To calculate the total private housing price change, the NBSC utilizes a straight 80% weighting of the urban population and a 20% weighting of the rural population despite the fact that in 2000nearly two-thirds of Chinese households were rural and only rose to 51% urban in 2011. According to the NBSC, rural home values rose by 249% between 2000 and 2011 for acompounded annual growth rate of 8.65%. According to the third party data, from the first quarter of 2000 to the first quarter of 2010, thenominal value of apartments in urban areas in China rose nearly threefold. When using third party data and reconciling NBSC data in place of official housing inflation data,annual Chinese CPI increases by approximately 1% annually. Incorporating this change in CPI into real GDP calculations reduces total real GDP by a mid-rangeestimate of 8-12% or $1 trillion in PPP. Other significant discrepancies exist that will likely increase the size of the needed restatementof total real GDP. According to NBSC data, the food component of the CPI in China was responsible for 99% of inflation between 2003 and 2011. This implies that the NBSC is claiming that theonly prices torise in China between 2003 and 2011 were food prices. |
Posted at 17/5/2013 19:02 by tpaulbeaumont further to the overtly bullish retail positioning and support levels cited above for AUDUSD it'll be prudent to lay out all the other price levels (within reason), cos a rout could easily wipe a couple cents off in a sessiontheres 9430, 9350, a cluster either side of 9275 (9300/9250), 9160 and chinas favourite 8888 :) |
Posted at 30/7/2012 11:02 by buywell2 For anyone thinking of buying in Australia or NZ .... wait 4 years minA property bubble has occured in both countries and even worse in China ... In Oz owning 2 or 3 homes for many families is now the norm .... thus the rental market is very competitive (cheap) if you know where to look and bargain hard. The property bubble in the USA has popped , property prices have dropped circa 50% in Florida since 2006 , however in Oz the picture is different Long term real house prices Real House Price Indices from 1986-Now A cold wind is likely to blow soon however as China slows and India also ... the bubble in housing could pop soon , the bubble in the UK always followed the USA by circa 1 year , only the commodity trade kept OZ apart , the commodity boom is turning into a bust , from the above you can deduce a 35% drop is coming and the $ASD and $NZ retrench V the $USD .... take care Here Japan crash is included the AUS drop has only just started |
Posted at 31/1/2012 09:10 by tpaulbeaumont Your Excellency, I am pleased to present the requested report on the economic outlook for the Great Southern Province of China, currently referred to by the local population as "Australia". For convenience I will refer to the country by this older name. We will now turn to the outlook. A Fork in the Economic Road ... The commodity boom has created a "two track" economy as your Excellency know economists prominent in the media love glib "sound bites". The mining and commodity boom benefits a small part of the economy whilst simultaneously creating problems for other parts. The mining and energy sector account for less than 10% of the Australian economy. This is smaller than the Australian finance sector or manufacturing industry. Mining and mining-related sectors, such as construction, manufacturing and services industries which benefit from mining activity, make up about 20% GDP. These sectors will contribute approximately two-thirds of the projected 4% GDP in 2011/12. The remaining 80% of economy will contribute one-third of growth. Mining employs 1.5% of the workforce reflecting its capital intensive nature. Unfortunately, a portion of the equipment needed is imported adding to the current account problem, especially in the short run. A combination of high domestic costs and the strong Australian dollar means that a significant portion of project related work is now done offshore. The revenue earned and the overall contribution to national income does boost the economy and creates employment. But dividends and interest payments to overseas investors reduce the amount of earnings that stays in Australia. The concentration of mining activity in Western Australia and Queensland also creates imbalances within the domestic economy. Skill shortages in mining means rising salaries, attracting workers from other industries and placing pressure on general wage levels. It also exaggerates property price increases in some areas. This creates inflationary pressure that forces the Reserve Bank of Australia to raise interest rates. The rising demand for Australia's mineral exports also pushed up the value of the Australian dollar. Since deregulation in 1983, one Australia dollar has purchased, on average, around 77 US cents. The commodity boom and Australia's high interest rates relative to the rest of the world increased the value to around 95 to 100 US cents, peaking at around 110 US cents. The high Australian dollar places exporters at a cost disadvantage and also makes it difficult to compete with cheaper imports. Affected sectors include key Australian export industries that are significant employers such as education services, tourism and manufacturing. Australia may lose up to 170,000 manufacturing jobs over the next 10 years, almost double lost jobs in the past decade. Unhappy Homes... The domestic economy remains lack lustre. Consumers are affected by significant debt levels and weak wage growth. Public spending has fallen reflecting pressure to return the budget to surplus. Business investment has been weak, reflecting sluggish demand. Debt levels remain high. Between 1991 and 2011, household debt rose from around 49% to 156% of disposable income. In 1989, when mortgage rates were 17%, the ratio of interest payments to disposable income was 9%. Currently, despite the fact that mortgage rates are around 7.5%, the ratio has increased to around 12%. As households increase savings and reduce debt, consumption is lower contributing to slower growth. Slow growth in credit, reflecting households reducing debt and problem in the banking sector, also constrains growth. Employment in manufacturing, retail and financial services is weakening, with major employers announcing layoffs. There are other unresolved problems. Housing prices remain high based on traditional measures such as affordability and rental returns. According to the latest Economist survey (published on 26 November 2011), Australian house prices were overvalued by 53% based on rents and 38% measured against income levels relative to long run averages. According to The Economist, Australian home prices are overvalued by at least 25% based on the average of these two measures. The level of overvaluation is greater than in America at the peak of its housing bubble. As your Excellency personally experienced during his visit to Australia, no subject excites greater passion among the locals than house prices. This is a staple of conversation and people excitedly compare the size of their mortgages and the value of their accommodation. There is heated disagreement between those who believe that house prices will not fall and other who forecast substantial price falls. The real issue is over investment in housing stock, which produces low or nil return. Encouraged by complex subsidies, large amounts of capital are locked up in housing, unavailable for more productive wealth creating activities such as new industries. In international rankings, Australia regularly performs poorly in competitiveness, productivity and innovation. This is inconsistent with the national character, which prides over achievement in competitive sports. Australia believes it can "punch above its weight". In a recent paper entitled "Productivity The Lost Decade", economist Saul Eslake found that Australia's productivity growth during the 2000s was 0.50% below that of the 1990s, when it was broadly comparable to the OECD average. Between the mid 1990s and the mid 2000s, annual labour productivity declined from 2.8% to 0.9% per annum. Over a similar periods, broader measures of productivity that incorporate capital as well as labour fell from 1.6% to near zero. The GE Global Innovation Barometer ranked Australia 16th out of 30 countries, well behind the leaders like the US and Japan. While 18% of local business leader, perhaps blinded by patriotism, nominated Australia, only 2% of global senior business executives citing the country as an innovation champion. The GFC also significantly reduced the wealth of individuals, especially retirees. The value of their investments declined. At the same time, income and returns from investments also declined. The "wealth effect" limits consumption but also encourages those planning for retirement to increase their savings. These problems mean that Australia's non-mining sector is forecast to grow at a modest 1% per annum, compared to the mining sector which is forecast to grow at 5%. Where are We Now... Your excellency, the country is a fest of complacency. Locals are convinced that there is no end in sight for the mining boom driven by China's growth. They believe that they are protected against the problems in Europe and elsewhere. Anyone who points out the risks is dismissed as a pessimist and doomsayer. Despite the recovery, many parts of the economy, other than the buoyant mining sector, remain subdued. The stock market, although not an accurate measure of economic health, remains over 30% below its levels before the crisis. Interest rates for 3 and 10 year government bonds have fallen sharply to record lows, reflecting increased pessimism amongst investors about economic prospects. Australia remains vulnerable. A slowdown in Chinese growth and fall in commodity prices and volumes would affect the economy adversely. Australian history suggests that mining booms are finite and end suddenly causing significant disruption. Problems in sovereign debt and attendant pressures on banking system may decrease available funding and increase borrowing costs for Australian banks and companies. Overvalued house prices and high household debt increases vulnerability to an economic slowdown, with an accompanying rise in unemployment or to higher mortgage rates. A credit crunch or recession could cause house prices to fall worsening domestic conditions, which would in turn affect domestic banks. The perfect storm for Australia would be the coincidence of those events. Australia has some flexibility. Public debt around A$250 billion is a modest 22% of GDP providing flexibility to stimulate the economic. But this capacity can be over estimated. Prior to the GFC, Ireland's debt levels were modest around 25% of GDP but the need to bailout troubled banks and the collapse of the real estate market led to debt levels increasing rapidly. Australian interest rates are relatively high (official rates are 4.25%), providing flexibility to cut borrowing costs to buffer any shock. The currency is flexible and a fall in value of the Australian dollar would help cushion any weakness, as was the case in 1997/1998 Asian crisis and again in the GFC. Your Excellency will also be aware that Australia Treasurer Wayne Swan was recently anointed as the world's best Finance Minister. His skills may assist in navigating through any crisis, should such an event occur. But it is worth noting that a previous Australian Treasurer received similar accolades in 1984, only to subsequently preside over a deep recession, which "the country had to have". Your Excellency has requested my recommendations for whether we should launch our bid for Australia, to be renamed the "Great Southern Province of China". I believe that we should await developments. We should be able to acquire Australia at a cheaper price in the not too distant future. Yours truly The Chinese Envoy |
Posted at 26/11/2011 15:06 by tpaulbeaumont According to Steve Keen, in 2000 Ozzie mortgage debt was c.10% of GDP, today its 100%, which almost fully accounts for all the house price gains over the last 11 years. |
Posted at 26/11/2011 15:01 by tpaulbeaumont Although Ozzie RE has declined in the last 12 months its still over-valued against historic price-to-renst and incomes by 53% and 38%, respectively.Anecdotal evidence tells me Singapore's figures may not be correct, they may be underestimating the recent froth/rises. |
Posted at 24/11/2011 23:32 by tpaulbeaumont A thread for anything Aussie that may offer a look, idea or reason for or against its economic and financial strength.SPOT AUDUSD 10YEAR AUSTRALIAN GOVERNMENT BOND YIELD Theres no denying the fact Australia has (and currently still is, just about) booming thanks to the demand for its commods from Chinas industrial boom. As China faces down the possibility of one day having to stop official record-busting stimulus, let alone the consequences of frivolous shadow banking, growing discontent at financial inequality within the rural poor etc, growth will likely taper off, leaving Australia with huge over-capacity. Equities have been relatively soft in recent months, the AUD peaked against the USD at a little over 1.1050 and the real estate market is one of the most over-valued according to a number of measures, not least of which is historic price-to-rent ratios. ASIA stocks - ASIA FX - The masses have never thirsted after truth. They turn aside from evidence that is not to their taste, preferring to deify error, if error seduce them. Whoever can supply them with illusions is easily their master; whoever attempts to destroy their illusions is always their victim. Gustave Le Bon - The Crowd: A Study of the Popular Mind, p. 110 |
