That's make it sounds like a bet on Blumont may pay off ! LoL :) IPCO is a proxy so lower risk and lower gain.

If IPCO ended green or even at 0.017, we may have seen its worst. Assess and enter with the assumption of a worst case scenario that their investment in Blumont is written off and should set the floor.
QSL unlikely to let go IPCO and I hope they didn't pledge in IPCO for any of the margin financing that will result in any forced selling down the road.

The entire portfolio of Blumont can't be higher than its 4 subsidiaries - ESA, Excellent, Asia Plan and IES. So even if write off, it's NAV should not be affected by more than 20% ? The question lies in how they priced their fair value recognition and if overly zealous in recognizing at current traded price which was too risky and unstable.

China Exports Rise More Than Estimated to Four-Year High
By Bloomberg News December 08, 2013 2:02 AM EST 2 Comments Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Save China?s exports rose more than estimated in November, pushing the trade surplus to the highest in more than four years in a sign global demand is helping sustain a recovery in the world?s second-biggest economy. Outbound shipments rose 12.7 percent from a year earlier, the General Administration of Customs said today in Beijing. That exceeded estimates from 41 of 42 analysts surveyed by Bloomberg News. The trade surplus of $33.8 billion was the biggest since January 2009, while imports gained 5.3 percent, compared with a median projection of 7 percent. The export figures reflect pickups in shipments to the U.S., Europe and South Korea, according to customs data. Stronger demand from abroad may give Premier Li Keqiang more room to implement reforms to increase the role of markets in the economy while helping meet the 7.2 percent annual growth pace he says is needed to ensure stable employment. ?There are signs that the global activity and trade cycle is gaining momentum, driven by the recovery in high-income countries,? Louis Kuijs, chief China economist at Royal Bank of Scotland Group Plc in Hong Kong, who previously worked at the World Bank, said in a note. ?China?s exporters are benefiting from that.? Imports show ?solid expansion of China?s domestic demand,? with prices declining from a year earlier, Kuijs said. Analysts? estimates for export gains ranged from 2.1 percent to 13.2 percent, with a median projection of 7 percent. The median estimate for the trade surplus was $21.2 billion. Stocks Gain The Shanghai Composite Index (SHCOMP) rose 0.7 percent last week for a fourth straight gain after the Communist Party?s Nov. 9-12 summit in Beijing, where leaders agreed on the broadest policy shifts since the 1990s. The yuan strengthened to 6.0817 per dollar. Overseas shipments rose 5.8 percent from October on a seasonally adjusted basis, compared with a 3.8 percent decline in the previous month, customs data showed today. Exports to the U.S. advanced 17.7 percent in November from a year earlier, the fastest pace since May 2012, while shipments to the European Union were up 18.4 percent, the most in more than two years, based on data compiled by Bloomberg. China?s foreign-exchange regulator said yesterday that it will increase scrutiny of trade financing and that banks should prevent companies from getting financing based on fabricated trade. The measures are aimed at preventing abnormal foreign-exchange flows, the State Administration of Foreign Exchange said in a statement posted on its website yesterday and dated Dec. 6. May Crackdown The latest statement follows a crackdown that began in May after trade data were inflated for several months on fake invoicing used to disguise capital inflows. Similar practices may be happening again, adding upward pressure on the yuan and complicating the central bank?s liquidity-management efforts, said Chang Jian, China economist at Barclays Plc in Hong Kong. Year-over-year growth figures in exports overstate gains by about 1 to 2 percentage points because of last year?s over-invoicing, RBS?s Kuijs said. Steve Wang, chief China economist in Hong Kong at Reorient Financial Markets Ltd., said today?s data don?t suggest the figures are inflated because the gains didn?t come in categories that previously correlated with suspicious practices. Export Orders It remains to be seen if the overseas momentum will continue, with a previous purchasing managers? survey showing new export orders are ?not as strong as what people had hoped,? Wang said. Economic growth may cool to 7.6 percent this quarter following a rebound in the previous period from a two-quarter slowdown, based on a Bloomberg survey last month. Today?s data also showed that China, the world?s largest buyer of iron ore, increased imports of the steel-making ingredient to a record in November as traders replenished stockpiles. ?Robust imports of major commodities are in line with the consistently strong industrial production growth data points,? Wang said. The trade figures kick off a series of November data releases, with the statistics bureau set to report tomorrow on inflation and the following day on industrial production and retail sales, along with fixed-asset investment for the first 11 months of the year. Figures on new yuan loans, aggregate financing and money supply are due from the central bank over the coming week. Previously released surveys of purchasing managers showed this month that service-industry expansion cooled in November, while an official gauge of manufacturing was unchanged from October and a separate one from HSBC Holdings Plc and Markit Economics fell.

Prepared to continue to collect to 0.008. That has been its lowest over last 5 years or historical low. The floor has been average 0.02 and that's the benchmark for most of the funds raised over last 1 year.

Thanks ! The IPCO book is all paper money.... The almost 10 folds jump in profit booked last year and attributable largely to fair value recognition may be reversed out. Should focus on those tangible performance of its 3 main lines of business in circuit boards (hopefully the recovery of economy and event up tick in electronic manufacturing augurs well), its China natural gas development which has just signed a new 30 yrs contract plus its property development in Seattle, USA for the revival of the property market.

QSL holds 1.35% o IPCO. Hope she didn't also pledged in IPCO for share financing and kena forced selling too. There is also no clarity on what IPCO used to pledge for share margin financing that is paying 6-8% interest per annum. Hope they will issue clarification and reassure shareholders in their Q2 result to be issued by 15 Nov. When is the next AGM ? | ||||

The CEO should resign voluntarily due to conflict of interest. If she holds a significant shares of Blumont, her judgement of the financial treatment and executive judgement on any asset disposal or increase has a high probability of being marred by her personal holdings. Unacceptable !

If the recent falls have taken into consideration the anticipated profit warning, as we all know that the inside news would have been leaked out given the history of these companies that it may be the good time to pick up at current price for mid to long term return. The sell on good news may work the reverse here.

This whole thing about fair value accounting is really stupid unless the company plans to realize it though near term disposal. It resulted in wild swing that is beyond the control of the company since it may not be able to exercise executive control and it does not correlate to the operating performance of the company and its business. I suppose the loss now depends on the value that it used when recognizing the fair value back then and the more, the higher 'loss' despite its natural gas business continuing to improve. Just paper money ! | ||||

ECB holds rate at 0.25% amid fragile eurozone recovery
[FRANKFURT] The European Central Bank held its key interest rate at a record low of 0.25 per cent on Thursday, while raising its forecast for the eurozone's gradual recovery despite prolonged low inflation. Like central banks in the United States, Japan and elsewhere, the ECB has used super-low rates and injected liquidity into the financial system to encourage lending and thereby boost investment and consumer spending. ECB President Mario Draghi said the cheap money would keep flowing, reiterating that he expected "key rates to remain at present or lower levels for an extended period of time". "Our monetary policy stance will remain accommodative for as long as necessary, and will thereby continue to assist the gradual economic recovery in the euro area," he said. |
