Chinese services PMI 52.5 from 52.7. Composite PMI 52.5 from 52.6. Despite all the gloomy reporting on China, PMIs are holding up well. Prices charged fell marginally, suggesting plenty of room for stimulus. |

One is Authorisation to issue shares and the other to buy back shares.
Can some one tell me the reasoning behind those please |
That tidy Chinese bird that reports on CNBC seems to think they are more concerned about protecting their currency than the stockmarket.

Yes they have talked about it, do you think they will do it?????
Would be chucking good money after bad.
And if they do??. Will it work??
SS |
Hong Kong looking likely to be good value? |
No - the downgrade on Chinas debt. That was a while ago. Last year I think. |
So bloody right. I'm afraid
SS |
You're so bloody rude, weirdo. |
Scruffy read the post

I totally agree.I suspect in their mind having a track record of always increasing dividends is a strong selling point and makes them look attractive.And to a certain extent they may be right no disrespect but reading comments on here some seem to almost exclude capital performance or keep saying it will improve and just look at the dividend.At the end of the day to have not grown capital at all in over 10 years is appalling and previously they have not even seemed concerned about this ( till the recent update)But it's about the future now and hopefully things will improve but those who bought much higher up may be in for a long wait. |
Being a dividend hero and having a track record of dividend increases would seem pretty pointless when it is accompanied by a track record of capital destruction. They need to start showing evidence that they are able to deliver consistent total returns. |
I think you both have it wrong
Xi
is not going to follow the Western recipe of Print Money and Pile on the debt!
There will be an enormous change in the Asian stockmarket scene.
The dividend will have to be cut their will be no option on that.
Present holders have a lot more pain to endure. |
I agree that would be the right thing to do but amongst other things looking at their website I suspect they are highly focused on being a "dividend hero" and building up a track record of increases. |
