Some way to go before dark pools see light Julie Quek juliequek@mediacorp.com.sg SINGAPORE Singapore is still early in the game for dark pools, they added, as this more innovative way of trading currently faces some resistance among investors in the region due to a lack of awareness. There is also some criticism that dark pool trading lacks transparency and may lead to systematic risk for the trading system. Transaction volumes and prices are not disclosed publicly in dark pool trading, thus allowing institutional investors some form of privacy in their trades. High net worth individuals (HNWI) typically consist the group of institutional investors who trade in dark pools. According to Sias Research, dark pool trading in Singapore is currently estimated to be at a low base of around 0.5 per cent of the total volume traded on the exchange. Overall, current trading volume for dark pools in the Asia-Pacific region is slightly higher at about 1 per cent of total trading volume on Asian stock exchanges, based on several analysts’ estimates. This figure is still relatively low as compared to the more developed markets beyond Asia. For instance, in the United States and Europe, dark pools account for an estimated 10 and 15 per cent respectively of their total trading volume on stock exchanges, according to analysts’ figures. Still, prospects for dark pools are optimistic when it becomes available to investors here. Chi-East, a dark pools joint venture between the Singapore Exchange and Chi-X Global has confirmed it will start operations by this year. “The presence of more market participants, including operators of block-crossing networks, will improve liquidity and therefore benefit investors,” a Singapore Exchange spokesperson commented on the emergence of dark pools players here. “Over the next two years, as more institutional investors start to look at the benefits of dark pools, we believe its transactional volume will more than double to 2 per cent on Asian stock exchanges,” said Sias Research lead analyst Moh Tze Yang. This is because trading in dark pools allows investors to enjoy lower transactional costs compared to trading in major stock exchanges where administrative costs are higher, he said. — Dark pool electronic trading is likely to heat up in Singapore as it becomes operational next year but it will need more investor education before it can take off, analysts said. |

IN AMERICA Three Signs of Trouble .IS INFLATION TURNING TO DEFLATION? Recent years suggest that deflation may be a gathering force, which would most likely slow the economy and hiring. Falling prices and wages tend to depress business investment.
For most of 2009, the inflation rate dipped below zero, bottoming out at –2.1%.
2 Low rates are a sign, at least for now, that people in control of money are eager to hand it to the Treasury, if for no other reason than they can't figure out a better place to park it. Here is the yield on 10-year U.S. Treasury bonds. The yield is nearing the low of 2.2% at the end of 2008. It was 2.9% at the end of July.
3 This is limiting inclinations to spur growth through federal spending. Here is gross federal debt as a percentage of gross domestic product.
Federal debt is expected to exceed 100 percent of gross domestic product starting in 2012. 1 A 30-year history of key indicators |

Two Economies, Different Remedies
IN AMERICA
The experts have run through many of their prescriptions for an ailing economy. But they worry that some cures may cause new problems. Like inflation. Or deflation. Meanwhile, uncertainty reigns on Wall Street.
For more than a decade, the global economy was fueled by monumental spending power underwritten by a pair of investment booms in America: the Internet explosion in the 1990s, then the exuberance over real estate.
As housing prices soared, homeowners borrowed against rising values, distributing their dollars to furniture dealers in suburban malls, and furniture factories in coastal China.
But the collapse of American housing prices, coupled with real estate declines in countries like Ireland and Spain, severed that artery of finance. Homeowners could not borrow, and they cut spending, shrinking sales for businesses and prompting layoffs.
Early this year, some economists declared that the cycle was finally righting itself. Businesses were restocking inventories, yielding modest job growth in factories. Hopes flowered that these new wages would be spent in ways that led to the hiring of more workers — a virtuous cycle.
But the American economy, long the engine of global growth, is once again tilting toward danger. Despite an aggressive regimen of treatments, fears of a second recession are growing.
Yet even as vital signs weaken — plunging home sales, a bleak job market and, in late August, confirmation that the quarterly rate of economic growth had slowed, to 1.6 percent — a sense has taken hold that government policy makers cannot deliver meaningful intervention.
That is because nearly any proposed curative could risk adding to the national debt — a political impossibility, given the coming elections in November.
The dramatic expansion of the debt — which began in the Bush administration, via large tax cuts and two wars — has increased fears that, one day, creditors like China and Japan might demand sharply higher interest rates to finance American spending. Those rates would spread through the economy and inflict the reverse of deflation: inflation, or rising prices, as merchants lose faith in the sanctity of the dollar and demand more dollars in exchange for oil, electronics and other items.
So far, the reverse has happened.
As investors lose faith in real estate and stocks, they are flooding into government savings bonds, keeping interest rates exceedingly low. Still, inflation worries occupy the people who control money, not least the governors of the Fed. The Fed has been seeking a graceful exit from its interventions, but the recent disturbing economic news has delayed those plans.
This is where the Great Recession has taken the world’s largest economy, to a Great Ambiguity over what lies ahead, and what can be done now. The growing impression of a weakening economy combined with a dearth of policy options has reinvigorated concerns that the United States risks sinking into the sort of economic stagnation that captured Japan during its so-called Lost Decade in the 1990s.
Then, as now, trouble began when a speculative real estate frenzy ended, leaving banks awash in debts.
The crisis was deepened by indecisive policy.
“There are many ways in which you can see us almost surely being in a Japan-style malaise,” said the Nobel-laureate economist Joseph Stiglitz, who has accused the Obama administration of underestimating the dangers weighing on the economy.
“It’s just really hard to see what will bring us out.”
Japan’s years of pain were made worse by deflation, an affliction that assailed the United States during the Great Depression. While falling prices can be good news for people in need of cars, housing and other wares, a sustained, broad drop discourages businesses from investing and hiring. Less work and lower wages translates into less spending power, which reinforces a predilection against hiring and investing — a downward spiral.
Deflation is both symptom and cause of an economy whose basic functioning has stalled. It reflects too many goods and services in the marketplace with not enough people able to buy them.
Germany, which has long harbored particularly powerful fears of inflation, has done relatively well in the current downturn without large stimulus spending, and that experience is now cited by adherents of austerity. But it can be argued that the Germans had two advantages over Americans: A more extensive social safety net to give consumers more money, and a vibrant manufacturing base to churn out more goods for export.
Now, the flat trajectory of prices in the American economy is leading to fears of deflation.
The primary way to attack deflation is to inject credit into the economy, giving reluctant consumers the ability to spend. The chief deflation fighter is the Federal Reserve, which traditionally adjusts a benchmark overnight rate for banks that influences rates on car loans, mortgages and other forms of credit. The Fed pulled this lever long ago, and has kept its target rate near zero.
The Fed also relieved American banks of troubled investments, many linked to mortgages, to give the banks room to make new loans.
Most economists praise the Fed for confronting the possibility of another depression. But the Fed added to the nation’s debts, provoking talk that it was testing global faith in the dollar.
Most economists believe that austerity is the wrong medicine for the American economy. First, they argue, take the medicine and stave off the lethal threat; then deal with the collateral problems.
Six months ago, Alan Blinder, a former Fed vice chairman and now an economist at Princeton University in New Jersey, dismissed the idea that America’s political system would ever allow the country to sink into a Japan-style quagmire. Now, he says, a lost decade now looms as “a much bigger risk.”
Late last month Ben S. Bernanke, the Fed chairman, offered assurance that he still had powerful therapies to use should conditions worsen. “The issue at this stage is not whether we have the tools to help support economic activity and guard against disinflation,” he said.
“We do.” Then he added: “The issue is instead whether, at any given juncture, the benefits of each tool, in terms of additional stimulus, outweigh the associated costs or risks of using the tool.”
Like the Japanese a decade ago, Treasury officials worry that forcing the banks to take losses could weaken them and risk another crisis.
By default, muddling through has emerged as the prescription of the moment.
The world’s largest economy, stalled in a great uncertainty.
Critics say CHINA reforms that led to growth are being undone. |

Two Economies, Different Remedies
IN CHINA
Some believe this government meddling will push growth rates down by 2020.
Chinese Strategy Favors State-Owned Companies
BEIJING — After decades of ceding ground to private entrepreneurs, China’s state-run companies are on the march again.
As the Chinese government has grown richer, it has pumped public money into companies that it expects to upgrade the industrial base and employ more people. The beneficiaries are state-owned interests that many analysts had assumed would gradually wither away in the face of private-sector competition.
Now analysts are asking if China, which calls itself socialist but is often thought of in the West as brutally capitalist, is in fact seeking to enhance government control over some parts of the economy.
The distinction may matter more today than it once did. China surpassed Japan to become the world’s second-largest economy this year, and its state-directed development model is enormously appealing to poor countries.
Once eager to learn from the United States, China’s leaders during the financial crisis have reaffirmed their faith in their own more statist approach to economic management, in which private capitalism plays only a supporting role.
“The socialist system’s advantages,” Prime Minister Wen Jiabao said in a March address, “enable us to make decisions efficiently, organize effectively and concentrate resources to accomplish large undertakings.”
Mr. Wen and President Hu Jintao are seen as less attuned to the interests of foreign investors and China’s own private sector than the earlier generation of leaders who pioneered economic reforms. They prefer to enhance the clout and economic reach of state-backed companies at the top of the pecking order.
“China’s always had a major industrial policy. But for a space of a few years, it looked like China was turning away from an active and interventionist industrial policy in favor of a more hands-off approach,” said Victor Shih, a political scientist at Northwestern University in Illinois.
Mr. Shih, among others, now believes that the 1980s reforms that unleashed China’s private sector and the 1990s reforms that dismantled great sections of the state-run sector are being partly undone.
“The problem is that the reforms of the first 20 years, from 1978 to the end of the ’90s, actually did not touch on the power of the government,” said Yao Yang, a Peking University professor who heads the China Center for Economic Research.
“So after the other reforms were finished, you actually find the government is expanding, because there is no check and balance on its power.”
Others argue that officials had always intended to create a vibrant state sector that would tower above the private sector in important industries, even as they sold off or shut down money-losing state enterprises that drained capital from the government budget and banking system.
Recent alarm over the expanding role of the state, said Arthur Kroeber of Dragonomics, an economic forecasting firm in Beijing, is mostly “perception catching up with reality.”
But skeptics believe distortions and waste, partly due to government meddling, will push growth rates down well before 2020. China, like Japan a generation ago, has too much confidence in a top-down economic strategy, they say.
The skeptics also note the growing political and financial influence of China’s state-owned giants — 129 conglomerates that answer directly to the central government, and thousands of smaller ones run by the provinces and cities.
While no public breakdown exists, most experts say the vast bulk of the 4 trillion renminbi ($588 billion) stimulus package that China pumped out for new highways, railroads and other big projects went to state owned companies.
Some of the companies used the money to strengthen their dominance in their markets or to enter new ones.
“In 2009, there was a huge expansion of the government role in the corporate sector,” said Huang Yasheng, a leading analyst of China-style capitalism at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
“They’re producing yogurt.
They’re into real estate.”
At the local level, governments set up 8,000 state-owned investment companies in 2009 alone to channel government dollars into business and industrial ventures, Mr. Huang said. One example suffices:
a private Chinese automaker, Zhejiang Geely Holding Group, in March agreed to buy Sweden’s Volvo marque from Ford. Much of the $1.5 billion purchase price came not from Geely’s modest profits, but from local governments in northeast China and the Shanghai area.
Geely has since reciprocated, announcing that it will build its Volvo headquarters and an assembly plant in a Shanghai industrial district.
The reasons for the state’s push for greater involvement in business vary. State control of energy supplies is crucial to China’s growth, and taking over coal mining in Shanxi will increase production, guarantee fuel to some stateowned utilities and give Beijing new power to control coal prices.
But in other areas the state looks more mercenary. State-owned enterprises in China have taken the best of the economy for themselves, “leaving the private sector drinking the soup while the state enterprises are eating the meat,” said Cai Hua, the vice director of a chamber-of-commerce-style organization in Zhejiang Province.
Mr. Cai says he believes that China needs government-run industries to compete globally and manage the country’s domestic development. But locally, he said, their advantages — being first in line for financing by state banks, first in line for state bailouts when they get in trouble, first in line for the stimulus gusher — have created a “profound inequality” with private competitors.
Some analysts argue that the state-owned conglomerates, built with state money and favors into global competitors, have now become political power centers in their own right, able to fend off Beijing’s efforts to rein them in.
China’s leaders have sought occasionally in the past year to curb speculative excesses by state-controlled businesses in real estate, lending and other areas. In May the State Council issued orders to give private companies a better shot at government contracts — for roads and bridges, finance and even military work. But similar rules were issued five years ago, to little effect.
Yet China’s success speaks well of its top-down strategy, other economists say. South Korea and Japan built their economies with strong state help.
Experts have but two questions.
One is how much longer state control of vast areas of the economy will generate that growth.
The other is whether, should that strategy stop working, China will be able to change it. |
