Posted at 17/1/2025 20:58 by pj84 Gustav Rhenman: This is why China will return 15-20% in 2025Elite Investor Gustav Rhenman tells Citywire Elite Companies that fears about a global tariff war are overblown and why he expects China to deliver strong returns this year. |
Posted at 11/10/2024 09:24 by pj84 The article concludes: -"But the country still accounts for 19 per cent of the global economy, and for some investors it may simply be too big to ignore. FCSS investors certainly own an asset that is markedly different from a simple Chinese stock tracker, with unlisted businesses, chunky gearing, and a range of different market caps. The trust is primed to spring back, as evidenced by 30 per cent bounce in the shares in the past month, and still trades at a double digit discount to NAV, which suggests there is still value to be captured.

Posted at 09/2/2024 11:52 by pj84 The following article focuses on 2 Investment Trusts Pacific Horizon and Fidelity China Special Situations and the following just relates to the latter."Gavin Lumsden 8 February 2024 • 6:00am China’s efforts to stabilise its struggling stock market make it a good time to review investment trusts that invest in the country and in the Asia-Pacific region more broadly. The problems of the world’s second-biggest economy, wracked by a property crash and weak consumer confidence following strict lockdowns, have weighed on the shares of London-listed China and Asia funds. Beijing’s announcement that it would “guide” Chinese institutions to buy more shares on its stock market, which in sterling terms has halved in the past three years, saw the Shanghai Stock Exchange index jump by 6pc earlier this week. Shares in London’s four China trusts followed suit, raising the question of whether this could finally be a turning point for funds that have crashed by between 44pc and 71pc in the past three years. These declines have left the trusts’ shares trailing 7pc-9pc below asset value. Although these discounts are not huge, readers should remember that the Chinese shares the trusts own are also depressed. Chinese companies trade at less than 10 times forecast earnings, which is cheaper than their long-term average of 12, and well below the peak of nearly 18. Investors willing to risk further losses in a long-term bet on China’s economic and technological development should ignore the noise around the recent liquidation of Chinese property developer Evergrande and head for Fidelity China Special Situations. With assets of £932m, this trust is already the biggest in its peer group and the easiest to buy and sell, attributes likely to improve further with the imminent merger with £177m rival Abrdn China. Managed by Dale Nicholls, Fidelity China is the best performer in its sub-sector even though the shares have delivered just 0.1pc including dividends over five years. However, in the 10 years Nicholls has run the portfolio, shareholders have received a more impressive 114pc total return, beating the 46.4pc from the MSCI China index. The shares stand on a 6.7pc discount." |
Posted at 03/8/2023 22:44 by pj84 Dale Nicholls: It’s time to be more bullish on ChinaThe portfolio manager of Fidelity China Special Situations says history tells investors the time to buy a market is when valuations are low and sentiment is negative. Can’t watch now? Read the transcript Dale Nicholls: I guess what we’re trying to show here is looking at China versus other markets and you can just see this swing in performance versus other markets. I guess what it shows is the divergence between markets. China’s performance has really swung. I think what it reflects is just general sentiment. A lot of which is macro-driven. There’s probably a geopolitical element to that as well. China, the sentiment around China really does swing and it doesn’t take long to see that when we look at 2021, 2022 and so far in 2023, you can see where sentiment sits. So, we’re clearly at the negative end of that sentiment spectrum. I think that is actually what makes China most interesting. We’ll talk about things like valuation, but China is very cheap versus history, extremely cheap versus other markets and sentiment is at the negative end, which history teaches us, if we look at this chart, it’s time to actually be more bullish. So, I’m definitely more bullish on the opportunities. I’m finding a lot of value in markets and I’m putting more money to work and that’s reflected in higher gearing that’s coming through in the trust. |
Posted at 16/3/2022 12:53 by davidro77 Interesting thank you. Key snippets for me are as follows, but typically a balanced argument that probably leads us to conclude 'I have no idea' what's next. If there was a degree of a short squeeze here then might be worth holding off for a few days if this really is a turning point there is likely more upside risk than downside at this point."It's the end of capitulation," said Peter Garnry, head of equity and quantitative strategy at Saxo Bank. "This confirms that the Chinese government sees healthy and strong equity markets as key for the country going forward. The equity market is totally sentiment driven right now and everyone is looking for an excuse to buy, though the headwinds for Chinese equities are still enormous."For Wednesday's rally to continue, China's policy makers will need to follow through with actions. Promises to keep markets stable were vocalized in January by the securities regulator, which has made no known intervention since.However A heavy-handed approach to managing market swings can backfire, like it did for China after a stock bubble burst in 2015, when botched interventions helped accelerate selling. A short squeeze may have exacerbated the gains. Short selling comprised about a quarter of Hong Kong's total daily turnover on Monday and Tuesday. The rally's staying power will depend in part on the reaction of foreign investors, whose role in Chinese markets has never been so important. "I do not believe this is a turning point -- we are in a very turbulent period," said Sean Debow, chief executive officer of Eurizon Capital Asia. "In order to catch a falling knife you have to have very very strong conviction, and we don't have that yet." |
Posted at 15/3/2022 11:12 by alan pt hxxps://citywire.comIn a strange coincidence, bought in this morning just before the above was published. I can certainly see it falling another 20% from here, but equally I can see it bouncing hard and making a lot more, the odds seem worth a small gamble... |
Posted at 09/11/2021 12:16 by rocketblast FCSS very Risky as HK is an issue. China losing main stream investors Get Out due to Risky rules and constraints.

Save your hard earned money as headwinds for FCSS slow progress with 250p to be tested see charts…Dont take Risks… |
Posted at 23/2/2021 21:47 by jfinvestments Personally , I don't see -6% discount to be a buy opportunity. Average is -9.6% over the last 12 months. Considering that once meant 2.20 per share for many months, this has hit it's short term peak I think. I like the trust and will buy again but closer to ten % discount would be an ideal price for me. Hopefully I'm wrong and it is straight back to 500p. That was clearly a medium term sell off target for many investors. |
Posted at 23/2/2021 15:21 by davidro77 Really? It appears to be in free fall and there will be a lot of investors looking to lock in some gains now the top is in. It is still way way up I am looking for a mini bounce to top slice here not buy more |
Posted at 10/7/2020 13:33 by cordwainer (kinda off-topic) looking to at least take profits or sell half but fidelity log-in and dealing (including telephone dealing) is down. Unplanned, that is. I might switch, How is Interactive Investor these days ? |
