One theory is that Saudi wants to keep US tied to Mid-East oil and strategic Defence by killing shale?

When will a convincing reverse take place? 30, 20? By then, maybe sauids maybe surrender more willingly than shalers who have proved surprisingly far more resillient than thought.

Trading in China?s stock markets has been halted for the rest of the day, after a 7% plunge in the blue-chip CSI300 index in the afternoon trading session triggered a circuit breaker mechanism which came into effect on Monday (Jan 4).
Earlier in the session, trading in both the country?s equity indexes and equity index futures had been halted for a brief 15 minutes, following a 5% decline in the benchmark index. The rapid activation of the second trading halt just after 1.30 pm local time indicated ?a rise in market volatility? following the first trade suspension. ?There was uncertainty in the markets. Investors were worried that maybe they might not be able to sell stocks after markets were halted,? Jackson Wong, associate director at Huarong international Securities, said in a telephone interview. ?So when markets resumed trade, we saw an acceleration in selling.? Fact that retail investors account for nearly 70% of China's stk-market trading volume also contributed to the rapid selloff. "Retail investors are by nature more risk averse than institutional investors.. It isn?t hard to understand why markets legged down hard to the 7% final breaker limit when markets reopened after the first circuit breaker was triggered and halted the market for 15 minutes, as this 15 minutes. For latest Caixin manufacturing purchasing mangers' index (PMI) ahead of imminent expiration of a share sales ban on listed companies' major shareholders, according to IG's market strategist Bernard Aw. In addition, the move by authorities to cut the yuan's value against the greenback on Monday, making it weaker than 6.5 for the first time in more than four-and-a-half years, added to the risk-off sentiment. The Shanghai Composite ended down 6.9 per cent, while the smaller Shenzhen Composite nosedived 8.2%. In Hong Kong, the benchmark Hang Seng index was pulled down nearly 3% Mr Aw expects China's stock markets to remain on a downward spiral on Tuesday. CMB Int'l's Strategist Daniel So, China's A-shares will likely see downward pressure in early trading on Tuesday. CIRCUIT BREAKER: BOON OR BANE? The circuit breaker mechanism was first raised by Shanghai Stock Exchange last Sept and officially confirmed on Dec 4, 2015. Under the mechanism, a move of 5% in either direction from the CSI300 index?s previous close will trigger a 15-minute trade suspension across the country's stock indexes if the move occurs before 2.45 pm local time. After that, a 5% move will prompt a trade suspension until the market closes at 3pm The circuit breaker system will also "complement" the current 10% daily limit rule which is usually limited to only "a handful of stocks", he noted. Under current rules, individual stocks and index futures in China are allowed to rise or fall a daily maximum of 10% from the previous closing level. Trading of a stock stops when it hits the daily maximum allowable limit. - CNA/sk |

http://www.straitstimes.com/business/companies-markets/back-to-back-annual-declines-for-asian-stocks HONG KONG &bull Asian stocks were poised for the first back- to-back annual declines since 2002 as decelerating Chinese growth and the rout in commodities sent equities tumbling during the year to underperform benchmark gauges in Europe and the United States. The MSCI Asia Pacific Index headed for a 4.3% drop last year, compared with a 0.2% advance for Standard & Poor' s 500 Index and a 7.4% increase for the Stoxx Europe 600 Index. " 2015 has been a very volatile and difficult year as the markets were assaulted by volatility from different asset classes." " The sharp sell-off in the commodities market badly affected the Asian currency markets, especially South-east Asian currencies and equities. China' s economy will have a soft landing in 2016." After outperforming global shares in the first six months of the year, with the benchmark regional index touching the highest level since 2008, Asian equities slid in the second half on China' s surprise yuan devaluation and investor concern about the Federal Reserve' s interest-rate outlook. Policymakers raised US rates last month for the first time in almost a decade and signalled gradual tightening this year. Shanghai Composite Index slipped 0.9% yesterday, finishing with an advance of 9.4% for the year. That contrasts with a 19% slump for the Hang Seng China Enterprises in Hong Kong. Singapore and Hong Kong are Asia' s worst-performing developed markets in 2015, with the Straits Times Index slumping 14% and the Hang Seng Index sinking 7.2%. |

http://www.straitstimes.com/business/companies-markets/healthcare-stocks-going-strong-in-a-weak-market Healthcare stocks were in the pink of health in a weak market. Healthcare was the strongest sector of all primary listings on the Singapore Exchange last year. The SGX Healthcare Index, which comprises 29 constituents with a combined market capitalisation of $31.6 billion, rose 11.8 per cent as at Dec 29. |

It doesn' t matter to the Global Xchange of the Yr. The accolade is all that matters. So, they will continue to look after the side of the business that' s catapulted them to the pinnacle n leave the equity side to decay.
