From Credit Suisse publication "Research Daily - Asia Equity Focus": [BrokeragesReport] Asian equities to extend rally after Q2 earnings surprises Q2 earnings surprises and strong liquidity extend Asian equity rally. We reiterate our pro-cyclical equity strategy and overweight position on Asian equities against an improving macro and fundamental backdrop amidst the Q2 reporting season. We expect three key positive drivers to extend the Asian equity rally further in H2 2009. First, the Asian markets have entered an earnings upgrade cycle, which turns out to be stronger than market expectations. After the trough of the Asian earnings downgrade cycle in April, the pace of consensus EPS upgrades has been accelerating in July and August with broader breath in the positive earnings revisions. 2009E consensus EPS for non-Japan Asia has been upgraded by 7.5% in the first 10 days of August and 6.2% in July, accelerating from the 3.3% and 3.4% upgrades in June and May respectively. Consensus EPS for 2010E has also been upgraded 6.1% so far in August, accelerating from 4.4% in July and 2.5% in June. It is noteworthy that August so far offers the biggest monthly earnings upgrades for non-Japan Asia since the 2001 global recession. The accelerating earnings upgrade momentum is a very positive indicator for the equity markets, as it offers a strong fundamental driver to extend the Asian equity rally going into H2 2009. Secondly, Asia is poised to benefit from an accelerating global asset relocation process to diversify from the rising risk of USD weakness and to increase exposure to the high-growth regions. Net foreign buying in Emerging Asia (ex-China & Malaysia) hit anew record high of USD 10.2 bn in July. Asia has remained the leading region to attract the largest portion of global fund inflowsto GEM equities since March 2009. On YTD basis, all GEM-dedicated equities have attracted approximately USD 36 bn inflows,which almost double the amount received each in 2005 and 2006 and close to the value recorded at the last cycle peak in 2007. This sharply contrasted the USD 50 bn YTD outflows from developed markets and indicated continued global asset reallocationfrom developed markets to high-beta emerging markets. Lastly, we do not expect any imminent risk of a major reversal of global monetary policy. As the recent FOMC meeting reaffirmedthe Fed's policy stance to keep near zero interest rates for an extended period in order to nurture an economy recovery while inflationary pressure is expected to stay subdued. The sharp deceleration in China's new loan issuance and moderation in fixed asset investment in July should mitigate the risk of premature policy tightening and asset bubble running out of control in China. The low interest rate environment and loose liquidity conditions provide a favorable investment environment for equities. Tactically, our technical strategists believes the global equity markets have entered a short-term consolidation phase extending into late August, as short-term momentum reading has topped out for most of the global indices. At current levels, we regard the Asian equity markets as fairly valued at 14.9x 12-month forward P/E at mid-cycle valuation. Our base-case 12-month index targets imply a modest 4% upside for MSCI Asia ex-Japan and 5% upside for MSCI Asia Pacific. We note the abundant liquidity and underinvestment of institutional and private investors underpin potential upside risk for the Asian markets to overshoot our fundamental index targets. Strong global liquidity inflows into the region could drive the Asian markets to test our optimistic 12-month index targets, which offer an aggregate upside of 24% for MSCI Asia ex-Japan and 18% for Asia Pacific. To ride on the earnings-driven rally, we recommend investors to focus on our favourite recovery leaders and reflation plays in Asia, including selected technology, banking, cement, metals and mining companies.

All these information point to the fact that the economy is no good. As an investor, u are in control of the decision u want to make. U want to believe what the markets tell u or do u want to believe what the real economy is actually going thru..it's all up to u.. What goes on in the markets mask reality cos we get so caught up with it, we fail to apply common sense.. which is what we all have but fail to utilize when the euphoria/fear starts More Bank Failures To Come Staying with the banking crisis theme, here is a story that indicates the worst may be ahead of us as far as bank failures. Yesterday's seizure of Colonial Bank was the 6th largest failure in US history. I expect that Guaranty Bank in Texas may be next. Rumors of a "bank holiday" being declared in September are growing louder. It makes sense to take some preventative action by having some cash in your home and stocking up on esential groceries and medicine just in case. If a bank holiday is declared all hell will break loose in this country. Let's all hope that these rumors are just that, rumors.-Lou Toxic Loans Topping 5% May Push 150 Banks to Point of No Return More than 150 publicly traded U.S. lenders own nonperforming loans that equal 5 percent or more of their holdings, a level that former regulators say can wipe out a bank’s equity and threaten its survival. The number of banks exceeding the threshold more than doubled in the year through June, according to data compiled by Bloomberg, as real estate and credit-card defaults surged. Almost 300 reported 3 percent or more of their loans were nonperforming, a term for commercial and consumer debt that has stopped collecting interest or will no longer be paid in full. The biggest banks with nonperforming loans of at least 5 percent include Wisconsin’s Marshall & Ilsley Corp. and Georgia’s Synovus Financial Corp., according to Bloomberg data. Among those exceeding 10 percent, the biggest in the 50 U.S. states was Michigan’s Flagstar Bancorp. All said in second- quarter filings they’re “well-capitalized” by regulatory standards, which means they’re considered financially sound. “At a 3 percent level, I’d be concerned that there’s some underlying issue, and if they’re at 5 percent, chances are regulators have them classified as being in unsafe and unsound condition,” said Walter Mix, former commissioner of the California Department of Financial Institutions, and now a managing director of consulting firm LECG in Los Angeles. He wasn’t commenting on any specific banks. Missed payments by consumers, builders and small businesses pushed 72 lenders into failure this year, the most since 1992. More collapses may lie ahead as the recession causes increased defaults and swells the confidential U.S. list of “problem banks,” which stood at 305 in the first quarter. |
