China investments to lift Malaysia’s outlook
MALAYSIA’S economic and business outlook looks depressed from official projections and private sector surveys, but this may be lifted by the massive inflow of Chinese funds and investments.
Chinese Premier Li Keqiang, who promised last November to help embattled Malaysia overcome its economic problems during his official visit to Kuala Lumpur, is seen delivering his promise soon after his return to Beijing.
The first was the purchase of 1MDB’s energy assets in Edra Global Energy Bhd for RM9.83bil by state-owned China General Nuclear Power Corp in the same month. This was followed by the multi-billion ringgit purchase of a substantial equity stake in Bandar Malaysia by China Railway Construction Corporation on Dec 31.
Last month, China Railway Engineering Corporation announced its plan to set up its multi-billion regional headquarters in Bandar Malaysia, which will host the main terminal for the planned KL-Singapore High Speed Rail.
On Monday, The Star reported that China’s government has started buying more Malaysian Government Securities (MGS) and this inflow of new money could possibly rise to RMB50bil (about RM30bil) in total or 8.5% of Malaysia’s total outstanding MGS in early April.

SYDNEY: Asian share markets enjoyed a relief rally on Monday as upbeat U.S. jobs data lessened immediate concerns about health of the world's largest economy, though long-run fallout from Brexit kept sovereign yields near record lows.
MSCI's broadest index of Asia-Pacific shares outside Japan rose 0.75 percent, While Australia added 1.3 percent.
Japan's Nikkei climbed 2.9 percent in the wake of a clear win by the government in upper house elections.
Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's ruling coalition won a landslide victory giving it the power to potentially revise the nation's post-war pacifist constitution for the first time.
The rebound came after news the U.S. economy added 287,000 jobs last month, well above median forecasts and recovering ground after a very weak May report.
In the end, investors concluded the data were not strong enough to revive the prospect of a rate hike from the Federal Reserve for the next few months, benefiting bonds and stocks.
The Dow gained 1.4 percent, while the S&P 500 firmed 1.53 percent and the Nasdaq 1.64 percent. The rise set the seal on an eight-session run that has seen U.S. equities add $1.4 trillion to market capitalisation.
There are around a dozen speeches and events scheduled for Fed officials this week, offering plenty of room for messaging.
One major event this week will be a Bank of England meeting on Thursday when it might well cut its 0.5 percent rate to offset the drag from the vote to leave the European Union.
Governor Mark Carney has already opened the door to easing , including the expansion of its 375 billion-pound bond-buying programme.
NO END TO UNCERTAINTY
The only question was timing, with analysts in a Reuters poll divided on whether a cut would come this week or in August.
Various reports out Monday argued for urgent action, with consumer spending falling last month, the business outlook darkening by the most in four years and economic activity in London slowing sharply.
"The outcome of the UK referendum has dealt a significant shock to the outlook for the global economy," warned Christian Keller, an economist at Barclays.
"It introduced a higher uncertainty about Europe's future, and raised questions about globalisation more generally," he added. "Confidence and financial channels could potentially propagate the effects to the U.S., China and beyond."
That was one reason bond yields in a range of countries had dived to record lows in recent days, while the pound has been at its weakest levels since 1985.
Sterling was stuck at $1.2948 on Monday, having failed utterly to rebound from the 13 percent loss suffered in the immediate wake of Brexit.
The Japanese yen eased a little to 100.80 per dollar, while the euro stayed on the defensive at $1.1043 having touched a low of $1.1003 on Friday.
In commodity markets, spot gold was a shade higher around $1,369.70 per ounce.
Crude prices edged down to near two-month lows on seasonally weak consumption, despite comments from Saudi Arabia's oil minister that the oil market was becoming more balanced.
Brent crude was down 32 cents at $46.57 a barrel, while NYMEX crude fell 39 cents to $45.02.- Reuters

Selling by funds dries up, M'sia now attractive for investors
PETALING JAYA: The exit of substantial foreign capital amounting to more than RM20bil over the past three years means that the FBM KLCI’s valuations will be properly reflected in the fundamentals going forward, say analysts.
For the first half of this year, net ouflows by foreign investors only amounted to RM48.6mil in total. This is in stark contrast to the RM19.5bil worth of net outflows seen last year and a further RM6.5bil back in 2014.
“Investors who are hungry for yields would naturally turn to emerging markets. So, Malaysia’s place as an investment destination is assured. Further inflows by foreign investors would mean that the companies are now perceived as more fairly valued as there are now less distortion in the market,” said one fund manager.
An analyst at a bank-backed research house said that the previous year’s outflows were a reflection of massive capital readjustments by the so-called “hot money” foreign investors, or those who tend to pull out funds from the country at the first sign of trouble.
He pointed out that this year the trend had completely reversed as foreign investors had steadily held about 22% of total shareholdings on Bursa Malaysia for the first five months of the year.
“There are no longer any major fluctuations or volatility in terms of foreign capital flows, which means that the ‘hot money’ issue is now moot. In fact, we believe that any surprise upside in new economic data could trigger major inflows, especially in the previously favoured Malaysian blue chips,” he explained.
While cautioning against investing in banks and telcos due to their dim near-term earnings prospects, the analyst prefers utilities and real estate investment trusts due to their predictable revenue base as well as good dividend prospects.
On the other hand, from a global standpoint, investors have little choice but to turn to emerging markets if they seek yields. Economic growth in developed markets is expected to slow down further, while the United States Federal Reserve continues to delay its planned interest rate hike due to such concerns.
The two major US indices – the Standard & Poor’s 500 and Dow Jones – have failed to break new all-time highs, hitting a peak of 2,130.85 points and 18,312.39 points, respectively, in May last year.
It is said that some investors were put off by the toppish valuations, while others were more concerned with preserving capital, triggering a rally in safe-haven assets instead.
However, this had an effect of dragging down yields to new all-time lows. In the bond markets, the yields on 10-year and 30-year US treasuries dipped to a new low last week, while the entirety of the Swiss sovereign issues went into negative yield territory.
As at last month, some US$8.73 trillion worth of securities globally carried negative yields, according to a report by the Bloomberg World Sovereign Bond Indexes.
While non-yielding safe-haven assets such as the yen and gold remain the preferred choices for investors, an analyst said that the allure of emerging markets has remained strong for those who seek capital growth.
This has become more apparent following the United Kingdom’s June 23 referendum which culminated in a ‘Brexit’ vote as the country’s citizens chose to exit the European Union. While capital markets in Europe have largely recovered from the short-term shock, emerging markets were largely insulated from the Brexit fallout. Between June 23 and July 7, the FBM KLCI rallied by 0.65%.
“Global equities staged a robust comeback last week, as post-Brexit ‘flight to safety’ sentiment diminished. Meanwhile, the two-month-long foreign selling episode on Bursa Malaysia has approached its end and despite all the market upheavals, foreigners effectively had a neutral position on Bursa Malaysia in the first half of this year,” said MIDF Research in a recent note.
Additionally, local institutional support has been vital in reducing the volatility in the stock market over the past few months, which could go a long way in alleviating investors’ concerns. Local funds have purchased at least RM3.97bil worth of shares in each of the past seven weeks, according to MIDF market data.
According to the research house, among the companies that have seen major inflows recently include stocks that have been battered for the most part of the year. The companies include Malayan Banking Bhd, CIMB Group Holdings Bhd, Bumi Armada Bhd and Top Glove Corp Bhd.

Brexit could become Regrexit
by s. jayasankaran
IT was all very embarrassing.
In the 17th Century, “the empire on which the sun never sets” was a nod towards the British Empire, whose tracts of empire were so vast that at any one time, there was always one of its colonies where the sun was still up.
How are the mighty fallen! Within the space of a recent few days, the United Kingdom was out of the European Union and the Kingdom itself was in danger of disintegration.
To top it off, the resignation of British Premier David Cameron was only the third headline on the Financial Times that day. Cameron sent a wry note to Brussels – “it’s not EU, it’s me” – before gracefully resigning the same day that England shockingly lost 2-1 to Iceland in the Euro 2016 Football Cup championships.
It was downright humiliating because to the optimist, the Cup was always half full and to the pessimist, always half-empty but England had never seen the Cup at all.
England’s manager resigned but not before earning £4.6mil year. Iceland’s manager, on the other hand, merely worked part-time and was, instead, a full-time dentist.
“Ouch,” said the BBC and promptly began playing dentistry’s theme song. “Feelings,” sang Morris Albert mournfully.” Nothing more than fillings.”
The Daily Telegraph began an expose of Wayne Rooney comparing him critically to Bill Clinton but soon gave that up, concluding bitterly: “At least Clinton can score.”
What was ironic about the running narrative behind the “leave” supporters was its unspoken fear of unbridled immigration. And that from a nation where 4.9 million Britons – the highest number of any nation in Europe – almost permanently stayed in countries where they weren’t citizens. But, of course, in those countries, they weren’t “immigrants”, but “expatriates.”
Meanwhile, Donald Trump, the US’ Republican nominee for this year’s Presidential election has seriously buttressed his growing reputation as a man who could make ends meet: his foot could generally be found in his mouth.
While on a trip to Scotland, the birthplace of his mother, Trump erroneously congratulated Scotland for voting to leave the EU, saying that was the way forward and that his country – the US - would also follow suit and “take our country back.” He did not specify from whom or from where so it was all very mystifying.
For his lack of research, Mr Trump was assailed by irate Scotsmen over social media. Some sample quotes from Scotsmen on Twitter were quoted by the Huffington Post. Among them:
> “Donald Trump, you couldn’t be more out of touch with reality if Nessie – the Loch Ness monster - bit you on the ass, you utter fool! Scotland voted to remain.
> This from a Scot who chose “Nessie for President.”
> “Scotland voted to remain, you soggy, expired dog food coupon.” This from a fellow who recommended: From “Buy Donald a toupee.”
And these were some of the more charitable opinions!
Now that the UK was out of the EU, how was the English supposed to react to the fact that they were no longer European? Being British and proud of it, they resolved first off that they could no longer use French, or other European, words and references that they had become accustomed to over the last three decades.
Certainly, even Jamie Oliver had to stop using the term “foie gras”. Instead, he agreed as a patriotic Englishman to use its stolidly English translation: “the fatty liver of a goose that had been forcibly fed to please the palates of gourmands the world over.”
And could anyone of English conscience ever eat a French fry ever again? Or use a French letter?
