This week, we have included some useful charts from some PGIM Fixed Income and Invesco research pieces, including ones covering inflation rates, central bank rates (and rate predictions) and an Eastern European Union member country dividend yields within historical ranges chart.
Meanwhile, one Hong Kong based analyst has been quoted as saying:
“Many [investment] funds are… excluding… quitting China [equity] positions… [Among some investment funds…] “the whole China team has gone… that’s what we hear. So, actually Hong Kong financial markets are really scary these days…”
Some general emerging market investment advice from another research piece we note this week would also apply to China:
Investing in EM 2.0 necessitates laser focus on differentiation, diversification, income as a source of potential return and a preference for quality.
We will do fewer China stocks for our EM stock pick tear sheetsthan what was done last week which included some (mostly speculative and more geared for traders…) US-listed Chinese stocks mentioned in a FT-Asia Nikkei article as to having recently switched accountants to Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) approved ones (to ensure they can stay listed on US exchanges).
The other stock picks were Chinese semiconductor stocks who are said to be in position to benefit from the US-China chip war as they are being backed or subsidized by the Chinese government. They are also in position to gain local market share as their Chinese customers seek to nearshore and protect their supply chains from further conflict.
Finally, CMBI (part of China Merchants Bank) publishes a monthly research focus list of their best high conviction stock ideas (generally 20+ Chinese stocks). We have a post with the latest stock chart, company description, and data (or links to it plus the IR page) as a companion to the piece.

Alibaba Cloud: Price War Rages as Nationalization Looms in China (Smart Karma) $
- The potential spin-off listing of Alibaba Group (HKSE: 9988) Cloud faces significant challenges from various factors, making the timing particularly challenging for the spin-off.
- The Cloud Business is experiencing intensifying price competition, while simultaneously facing substantial regulatory risks, particularly with the Chinese Government’s plans to nationalize the cloud computing market.
- Due to the ongoing price war and the potential risk of nationalization, we believe that Alibaba Group (NYSE: BABA) Cloud’s fair value is substantially below $10bn.
What exactly are TikTok, Shopee, Lazada all trying to copy from Temu? (Momentum Asia)
Sea Limited (NYSE: SE) ownsShopeewhile Lazada (Wikipedia entry) is privately held.
- “Fully managed” consignment model is deemed superior to marketplace model
- Temu, Pinduoduo (NASDAQ: PDD)’s cross border affiliate, has taken the global ecommerce market by a storm. In April, its 8th month since launching in the US market, Temu’s US GMV was approaching US$400m. The platform has also expanded to be available in 10 markets.
- Temu’s quick traction obviously drew a lot of attention from its peers and competitors, in a typical Chinese fashion. Many ecommerce platforms seem to have concluded that Pinduoduo’s “全托管”(“fully managed” or “all inclusive”) model is at least worth trying.
- Under this model, sellers, manufacturers or brands will just need to agree on a price (to the platform), and ship the goods to the platform’s warehouses. The platform will handle everything else: front end marketing to consumers, logistics & fulfilment, as well as customer service.
Dividend restart still far for Macau ops: JP Morgan (GGR Asia)
See our Macau ADRs list.
- “I am cautiously optimistic that cash rich companies may resume dividend for fiscal year 2023 to be paid in 2024″, he [DS Kim, head of Asia gaming and leisure research at JP Morgan] said. “But if we get lucky, they may resume with the interim one that is going to be paid or is going to be announced in August 2023. But I would assign higher likelihood on the final [2023 dividend]“.
- He added: “For those operators with net debt, given their current leverage, in our view, would need to manage their balance sheet before thinking about returning capital [to investors].”
- “The good thing is that the Macau stocks look a little too cheap and the [recovery] momentum, fundamentals, cash flow, everything looks much better, versus any other time in the past three or four years. We cannot believe that the multiples, the valuation will stay at current level forever. So, especially for the quality blue chip names, we want to use this as an opportunity to build long positions,” the JP Morgan analyst said.
Macau stocks tied to China outlook: Bloomberg analyst (GGR Asia)
- Macau stocks in likelihood “have been punished too much because of China sentiment,” suggested Angela Hanlee, an analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence.
- The Hong Kong-based analyst stated: “Many [investment] funds are… excluding… quitting China [equity] positions.”
- Among some investment funds, “the whole China team has gone… that’s what we hear. So, actually Hong Kong financial markets are really scary these days,” she added.
Redington India – An under the radar compounder (Unfair Advantage)
- Redington (NSE: REDINGTON / BOM: 532805) is an IT hardware distributor with operations across India, Middle East, Turkey and Africa. It has very low debt, grown FCF at 20% p.a for last 10 years and is currently trading at 6.5% FCF yield. They distribute laptops, PCs, mobiles, networking, datacenter hardware and tablets from all major brands (Samsung, Apple, Lenovo etc.) to both enterprises, re-sellers. This is a hard-to-enter business, mainly because: 1/ Building and maintaining relationships with marquee brands require trust, consistent performance & time. 2/ Running a distribution business at scale requires an efficient supply-chain and strong execution (which is much harder than it sounds).
New Investment – Anglo Eastern Plantations (AEP.L) (Deep Value Investments Blog)
- Brief summary, Anglo Eastern Plantations(LON: AEP) is a family holding company involved in palm oil plantations which has had a generational change of management, hopefully leading to a change in strategy. Lim Siew Kim held 51% and died on 14th July 2022. She was the daughter of the patriarch of the large Malaysian Genting Group (mostly hotels) [Genting Berhad (KLSE: GENTING / OTCMKTS: GEBHY) / Genting Singapore (SGX: G13 / FRA: 36T / OTCMKTS: GIGNF / GIGNY)].
- I believe the change in management will lead to a change in how the company operates to a more shareholder-friendly model. In their latest announcement they said they would consider buying back shares.
- One of the things I like is that the whole board only gets paid a few hundred k. I am very very sick of managements being ridiculously paid, whilst taking zero risk and adding very little. It shows the advantage of a strong, controlling shareholder – in preventing snouts going in the trough. Having said that corruption is a problem in Indonesia and in the palm oil sector more generally, though I have no evidence / specific suspicion Anglo Eastern is involved.
Zomato (ZOMATO IN) | The Big Picture (Zero Hedge) $
- The street is excited about Zomato Limited(NSE: ZOMATO)‘s profitability, we are not.
- Zomato’s execution is strong, driving improved profitability despite the margin-dilutive Gold offering.
- Caution warranted due to market dynamics: slow growth, margin pressure, and increased competition.

It’s Time to Disentangle from China (Yale Insights)
- As the risks of dependence on China become more apparent, a few companies are diversifying their supply chains.

Indonesian IPOs boom amid global volatility (The Asset)
- Growth prospects fueling activity, new economy, EV value chain attracting investors
- Companies listed in Indonesia raised around US$2.1 billion in IPO proceeds compared with US$1.2 billion during the same period last year. Indonesia is ranked second behind mainland China in terms of IPO proceeds in the Asia-Pacific region, ahead of markets such as Hong Kong, South Korea and India, according to data from Dealogic, May 2023 year to date.
- Just last month, Indonesian nickel company Trimegah Bangun Persada (Harita Nickel) raised 10 trillion rupiah (US$672 million) from its public offering. It was the largest IPO in 2023 so far for Indonesia. This was followed by Merdeka Battery Materials’ US$580 million listing that saw shares listed at the top of the offering range.
- The pipeline for IPOs in Indonesia, according to market reports, is expected to be robust, mostly coming from the consumer, technology and energy sectors. Some notable names include the upstream arm of Pertamina Hulu Energi, which plans to raise at least 20 trillion rupiah (US$1.36 billion) from investors, and state fertilizer firm Pupuk Kalimantan Timur.
Financial inclusion efforts in Mexico give way to new market highs (Franklin Templeton)
- Global investors might not be aware that Mexico’s stock market has been rising to new heights this year.
- Some consumer staples firms in Mexico’s stock market have been recent standouts. Tapping into the change that is underway in the payments space, some retailers are now playing a greater role in financial inclusion efforts through the rollout of alternative payment methods. For example, one of Latin America’s largest beverage and retail giants based in Mexico is leveraging access to customers of its ubiquitous convenience store chains with new digital debit cards that may help financial services penetration—a central government priority.
- Other new programs from Mexico’s retailers may offer products for remittances, loans to small businesses, and other traditional services. These efforts are widely seen as a positive for the country’s nascent digital economy. There is much room for growth, in our assessment, as only about 49% of individuals over the age of 15 held a bank account in 2022, up from 37% in 2017, according to the World Bank.
Emerging Markets 2.0: New Investment Mindset Required (Blackrock)
NOTE: Many good charts and graphics.
- Over the past 40 years, Emerging Markets (EM) have gone through a dizzying up and down. After being lauded as the new investment frontier,the asset class lost steam sometime after the Great Financial Crisis.
- We believe the loss of market momentum very much reflected a marked downshift in EM’s growth prospects. That, in turn, mirrored the plateauing of Chinese growth, de-globalization trends, rising EM indebtedness, and, like the advanced world, a sharp escalation in political polarization and volatility.
- The change in EM’s landscape does not mean the asset class is not attractive. EM still offers significant opportunities and value propositions. What it does mean is that EM 2.0 requires an entirely different investment mindset.
- Investing in EM 2.0 necessitates laser focus on differentiation, diversification, income as a source of potential return and a preference for quality. To successfully navigate the asset class, the investment process must rely on deep and rigorous investment research, employ the various asset allocation levers available to them, and, crucially, have sophisticated risk measurement and management tools.
A Brief History of Dollar Hatred (Money: Inside and Out Substack)
- The current wave of animosity towards the USD is not the first – and it will not be the last.
- Over the past 20 years, I have experienced 3 big waves of Dollar Hatred. I will discuss them below.
- And in the appendix, I will present some hard data pertaining to the current debate about de-dollarization.
- Animosity towards the dollar is elevated in 2023. But this is not in itself new, and the dollar is trading strongly, with price dynamics seemingly divorced from the media-narrative about de-dollarization. At least for now.

EMD Quarterly Review Q1 2023 (Capital Group)
- Banking sector volatility didn’t prevent emerging market (EM) debt from rising over the quarter as investors focused on the macro tailwinds from China reopening alongside relatively strong fundamentals and high starting yields across many sovereign issuers.
- The sharp sell-off in EM debt in 2022 has resulted in attractive market valuations. We favour a tilt towards local currency markets, particularly across Latin America, where a slowdown in inflation coupled with expected policy easing will likely provide attractive total return opportunities.
- We currently see the most value in Latin American countries, such Colombia, Mexico and Brazil where interest rates have been raised early.

Note: Many good charts…
- Since 2007, the annual In Gold We Trust report has been regarded as the standard work for every interested gold investor. But the In Gold We Trust report is much more.
- Each year we undertake a comprehensive macroeconomic analysis and examine the trends of the present, learn from the past with an eye on the future. To understand them, fundamental workings of the financial and economic system must be explored and critiqued. Every year, the In Gold We Trust report looks at the top issues in the financial world. In its method of analysis, it roughly follows the Austrian school of economics.
