Market Fall: global stock market fall because of the following worries:
- Slow economy growth (every once a while, such worry came back)
- Inflation risk (will it come? No & Yes!! No, cuz consumer product index keep at around 2.0% and even in China, it is only 4.9%; Yes, commodity price rise like crazy. So it came and it will come, but in a non-tradition format – not in consumer product)
- Interest rate will rise (in China) (in order to balance between money supply, consumer product price and keep the borrowing / assets ratio low to prevent a potential bubble, I think a reasonable rise in interest is healthy to the economy. Under this interest rate rising expectation, China Life should be the biggest gainer cuz it will lower its insurance reserve liabilities.
- Default risk of the European PIIGS bonds
- To me, those worry are understandable but I think the true reason is a reasonable stock market adjustment. We should see the market stabilized at this point where S&P 500 at around 1170 and Hang Seng at around 23,000.
I’ve switched Exxon Mobil to Total SA, a France based integrated oil & gas company, cuz I want to increase my investment in Euro zone to have a more diversify portfolio while I think Total SA’s value is being more understated compare to Exxon Mobil.
