Investors lose faith in the idea that China and India can withstand a slowdown in the U.S. and punish Asian shares



Chinese Exporters Could be Hurt
Even mighty China may not be immune. "American consumers have been using their homes like ATMs," Morgan Stanley (MS) Asia Chairman Stephen Roach said at a conference Jan. 13 in the southern Chinese city of Sanya. "That game is over. If the U.S. consumer falters, China is going to feel it."

The worry among investors now is what faltering demand from the U.S. means for Chinese exporters. "Export-related companies are definitely going to have a tough time ahead," says Tony Yam, chief investment officer at SMC China Fund, a hedge fund investing in Chinese shares. One quarter of the country's exports go to the U.S., and another 35% go to European countries, many of them also facing serious downturns.

China 'ends illegal tax breaks'

The US has been complaining about the power of Chinese exporters

China has agreed to end tax breaks for local manufacturers, which the US said gave them an unfair advantage over rivals, US trade officials have said.

Under the deal, China will remove the subsidies, which the US called "market distorting" by the end of the year.

The move is a major breakthrough for US-China trade relations, which have been strained recently, analysts said.

It ends a spat that began when the US took the matter to the World Trade Organization (WTO) in February.

US trade representative Susan Schwab said that China had agreed to remove the subsidies granted to Chinese exporters that encouraged them to sell products abroad more than they would otherwise.

The deal also would remove tax-breaks given to Chinese companies that used locally-made goods instead of imported ones.

"This outcome represents a victory for US manufacturers and their workers," said Ms Schwab.

"The agreement also demonstrates that two great trading nations can work together to settle disputes to their mutual benefit."

Nov. 14 (Bloomberg) -- China's retail sales rose at the fastest pace in at least eight years, buoyed by rising incomes and prices in the world's fastest-growing major economy.

The 18.1 percent increase in October from a year earlier to 826.3 billion yuan ($111 billion) topped 17 percent growth in September, the statistics bureau said today. It was the biggest gain since 1999, when the government started releasing the data. The median forecast of 21 economists was for unchanged growth.

Sales of clothes, electronics and automobiles jumped more than 30 percent, lifting revenue for Wal-Mart Stores Inc., the world's biggest retailer, and SAIC Motor Co., China's largest carmaker. Rising consumer spending also is fueling inflation that accelerated last month to 6.5 percent on food shortages.

Rural income in China rises faster
(Xinhua)
Updated: 2007-10-26 21:32


BEIJING -- Income growth of rural residents outstripped that of their urban counterparts in China in the first nine months of this year, according to official statistics.

A survey of 68,000 rural households nationwide showed that average cash income per person reached 3,321 yuan (US$442) for the first three quarters of this year. After taking into account inflation, it rose 14.8 percent over the same period last year, the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) announced on Friday.

The NBS also found that after sampling 59,000 urban households, the per-capita disposable income of the country's urban residents grew by 13.2 percent in real terms to 10,346 yuan over the first three quarters of this year.

This comes against a background of a widening gap between rich and poor in China. Statistics released in September showed that the average annual income of urban residents in 2006 was 3.28 times that of their rural counterparts, up from 3.22 in 2005 and 3.21 in 2004.

An NBS official said a wage increase for non-farming jobs and price rises of farm products are major factors fuelling income growth for rural residents.

According to NBS figures, both the per-capita wage income and the income from selling farm products for rural residents rose around 20 percent in the first nine months. The country has been increasing investment in rural areas to narrow the income gap between rural and urban residents.

BEIJING, Oct. 26 (Xinhua) -- China's retail sales rose 15.9 percent year-on-year to 6.38 trillion yuan (851 billion U.S. dollars) in the first nine months despite soaring consumer price index, the National Bureau of Statistics said on Friday.

The growth rate of retail sales, a major gauge of consumer spending and an indicator of market movement, was 2.4 percentage points higher than the growth rate of the same period last year.

In September alone, retail sales expanded 17 percent year-on-year.

Analysts attributed the rise of retail sales to the increase of residents' disposable income as the income of both rural and urban residents rose more than 13 percent in the first nine months.

Retail sales in urban areas climbed 16.3 percent to 4.33 trillion yuan while in rural areas it increased 14.9 percent to reach 886 billion yuan.

Spending has contributed 37 percent to the GDP growth, but the proportion should be "still higher," said Zhuang Jian, senior economist with Asian Development Bank Resident Mission. (One U.S. dollars equals 7.48 yuan)

China's Citic in Talks for Bear Stearns Stake

China Citic Bank is bidding to buy a stake in Bear Stearns, a senior Chinese regulator said on Tuesday, in the first official confirmation of media reports that the state-run bank is a potential suitor for the Wall Street firm.

Jiang Dingzhi, vice-chairman of the China Banking Regulatory Commission, cited Citic Bank's interest in buying into Bear Stearns as he went through recent acquisitions and investments by Chinese banks in overseas financial institutions.

His comments follow a report by The New York Times last month that Bear Stearns, among the institutions hardest-hit by the U.S. subprime mortgage crisis, was in talks with investors, including Citic, about selling a stake.
