The logistics have come to halt. Our clients are looking for local manufacturers.

But confuses me why insurance companies are down.

So Chinese exports dropped 17% over the first two months of the year, with imports falling 4%. Raw materials are still coming in albeit at a slower rate but less goods being produced. Imports will probably fall off more in March.

Make sense the valuation is soo high, but not the FTSE companies:

Valuation may also be part of the reason. The CSI 300 Index’s fell to a one-year low of 10.6 times profits projected for the next year in February, after the initial reaction to the outbreak virus hit China’s markets. Meanwhile, U.S. equity valuations dipped to about 16.6 times estimated earnings, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

Interesting:

China’s swift and strict measures to contain the virus, optimism over fiscal and monetary stimulus, and relatively reasonable valuations are among the key reasons for the recent relative rebound, according to market participants. Perhaps more importantly, China investors have already gone through the panic stage that their U.S. counterparts are experiencing now, they said.

A gauge of Chinese stocks in Shanghai and Shenzhen just posted its best week in a year -- a 5% gain -- after touching a two-year high on Thursday. Meanwhile, the S&P 500 Index has fallen more than 12% from the record it reached last month, with volatility surging.

Looking at market, it wouldnt surprise me to hear its so - but be interesting to hear

[sentimentrules] 07/3/2020 09:54

I dont know . Need somebody that trades or invests in that way to answer it. Not my method

Tell you what I wouldn't want to be the one's holding all the paper on these student flats that are springing up everywhere. There is already much anxiety the foreign students that mainly occupy them won't come in September.

Is it MTRO???

Brokers etc, will ram home the good in hedging, strategies and so on.

well of course they will. Their money is made on transactions - hedging is double win for them

better to go off and make own strategies

.....

[sentimentrules] 07/3/2020 08:59

different for companies/institutions - but done much differently too.

for retail its just a muppet approach

and somehow they manage to end up with a double loss anyway lol

[sentimentrules] 07/3/2020 08:58

Hedging is the most ridiculous thing in the world

If x goes down, y may go up to reduce loss..

well then just put less in x ... all a hedge does is create nonsensical work

[sentimentrules] 07/3/2020 08:55

hedging a bank with a bank in this sector state - what a hedge.

[sentimentrules] 07/3/2020 08:35

Here is something worth doing

look at what ftse 350 companies either 1. fell out of the ftse over the last 20 years, or 2. thosae that went bust

Now look at institutional holdings for each, and who they were

sorta blows the 100% buyer confirmation out of the water

[sentimentrules] 07/3/2020 08:33

Overall, institutional interest has reduced over time

I see a lot of talk about bacal etc. As if its a confirmation.

But when one institution/fund buys, and another sells or shorts - one side has to be wrong

why is it always assumed that the buying side will be right? Or indeed, even assume their intention is truly a buy?

[sentimentrules] 07/3/2020 08:27

so when you think about it, without these type of rumours spurring in investors since 2000p, the speed of the drop would most likely have been twice as fast, and 20p today

[sentimentrules] 07/3/2020 08:25

Sorry it was 2000p

[sentimentrules] 07/3/2020 08:23

If memory serves me correctly, the first media rumours of TO etc, started at 1400p?

[sentimentrules] 07/3/2020 08:22

They have been betting on plan B since 1500p

Without the 'potential' plan B, imagine metro share price today

[sentimentrules] 07/3/2020 08:21

Thomas i will believe the chinese numbers when the same trend exists in the EU/UK/US/Middle East and the rest of asia

[thomas4billing] 07/3/2020 08:19

Still doubt that retails bought 6 Mu shares yesterday... I bet on Plan B

[pione3r] 07/3/2020 08:13

For having lots of suppliers in China, I confirm that factories have started again 1 week ago and full capacity will be reached in max 1 month. People are going back to workWhen people realize that we still die more often from normal flu.. they should relax
