China increase benchmark rate: Impact On Commodity Market

Commodity prices have been going up and cause inflation remain at high level . However, market eventually will adjust by itself and find a balance point to settle at the fair price for the commodity. With the surprise action taken by China government to increase the benchmark rate, it clearly show that the government do not wish to to see the people facing problem in buying expensive food items during the festive season.

Therefore, commodity market may going through a correction and this may give some impetus for profit taking activity before the end of 2010 and provide opportunity to buy on dip.

Ideas: The average selling price for CPO 4Q2010 = RM3200 ( an increase of 24% compared to 3Q2010). Therefor, ready to buy plantation counter when opportunity emerge and hope to see plantation company to report better financial result due to release on early of February.

China's Central Bank Raises Interest Rates for Second Time

Quoted from CNBC news dated 25-12-2010:

China's central bank raised interest rates on Saturday for the second time in just over two months as it stepped up its battle to rein in stubbornly high inflation.

The People's Bank of China said it will raise the benchmark lending rate by 25 basis points to 5.81 percent and lift the benchmark deposit rate by 25 basis points to 2.75 percent.

The central bank said in a statement on its website (www.pbc.gov.cn) that the latest rate rise would take effect on Sunday.

The move came after Beijing said earlier in December it was switching to a "prudent" monetary policy, from its earlier "moderately loose" stance.

Analysts said the change of wording, along with a recent pledge by top leaders to make inflation fighting a top priority for 2011, could pave the way for more interest rate increases and lending controls.

"This rate hike demonstrates Chinese authorities' determination to keep inflation under control up front, or front-loaded tightening," said Qing Wang, chief China economist at Morgan Stanley in Hong Kong. "Compared to rate hikes in the beginning of next year, a rate hike before year-end will have a more tightening impact, as the interest rates on the medium- and long-term loans and deposits are reset at the beginning of each year according to the base rates."

The central bank said on Friday it will deploy a range of policy tools to head off inflationary pressures and asset bubbles.

To tame price pressures, China raised interest rates on Oct 19 for the first time in nearly three years. The consensus of analysts polled by Reuters this month was for three rate rises of 25 basis points each by the end of next year.

Along with playing a key role in the fight against inflation, policy tightening also signals the government's confidence that the world's second-largest economy is on solid ground, even as the U.S. and European recoveries remain fragile.

While almost all investors and analysts thought more policy tightening was coming, there was uncertainty about whether the central bank would raise rates before the end of the year.

The central bank opted to raise banks' reserve requirements on Nov 19 ahead of data which showed inflation hit a 28-month high of 5.1 percent.

"We expected a rate hike by the end of the year, though Christmas Day is something of a surprise—a rate hike is not normally on the wish-list for Santa Claus, but in China's case this is a prudent move," said Brian Jackson, economist with Royal Bank of Canada in Hong Kong.

"We think it is increasingly clear that using quantitative measures, such as reserve ratios, to rein in liquidity and credit has not been enough, and that adjusting the price of credit—that is, interest rates—is needed to get price pressures under control."

Chinese stock markets have shed nearly 10 percent since mid-November on concerns the government would ratchet up its monetary policy tightening in face of rising inflation.

China has also officially increased banks' required reserve requirements six times this year and restricted lending by them.

In addition, Beijing has taken a slew of steps to cool the property sector, trying to ward off a potential asset bubble.

AEONCR (5139)- Good Dividend Yield Counter

Reported 3Q11 EPS of 13.4 sen and estimate to deliver better result due to upcoming festive seasons with target EPS of 14 sen for 4Q11. ( EPS for FY2011 approximately 50 sen ).
AEONCR currently trading at PE 7.5X based on share price RM3.70. However, I think AEONCR should enjoy higher PER as the company business is continue to grow at healthy pace.

PE 8X - RM4.00
PE 9X - RM4.50

Dividend announced in Sept 2010 =11.5 sen

Again, if AEONCR wish to enlarge its share capital by issuing bonus, the share price may move to RM4.30-RM4.50 or even higher.

Accumulate at this level.

China- To Curb Inflation

China's consumer price index of November rose by 5.1 percent year on year, the fastest clip in 28 months, giving rise to greater concern over tightening measures from both consumers and analysts.

China's central bank Friday announced the third increase of the reserve requirement ratio (RRR) for banks in a month, an unprecedented move pointing to the urgency of curbing runaway lending amid accelerating inflation. The People's Bank of China (PBOC) said on its website that it would lift the bank reserve requirement ratio by 50 basis points from December 20. Banks will have to set aside 18.5 percent of their reserves after the sixth such hike this year.

Refer back to my post in 20-11 2010:-

Uncertainties are ahead of us in the stock market. Maybe is time to reduce shareholding and hold cash. With the cash, we may be able to enjoy the "good cheap sales" after selling down due to market adjustment.

AEONCR - It just a dividend dield counter ?

AEON - Jaya Jusco

Like to do shopping at AEON (Jusco)? Have you ever checked the interest rate charged by AEONCR for Jusco installment scheme ? Go and check by yourself then you will find why I like AEONCR. Based on AEON track records, if an investor invested 1000 shares AEON in year 2000, now he should have 4000 shares of AEON and with decent dividend every year for the past 10 years.

AEONCR:
1. Dividend - 23 cts to 25 cts ( DY of 6% ) and still on upward trend.
2. Potential bonus issue 91:1) candidate which will help to push up the share price to RM4.20-4.50 before ex-bonus.Follow by attracting more investor to look into this counter and further push up the share price from 2.10 (ex-price) to probably 2.50.

If you invested at 1000 @ 3.70 level and hopefully sell at 2000 @ 2.50 = 35% potential gain.

Hope the above scenario come true within 1 year from now. Good Luck !

CIMB Niaga (Indonesia)

Share price shot up to Rp 2575 and trading at PE of 25X.
Strong earning growth rate of 50% for coming year will push the share price to

Rp 2500 @ PE 16X

Therefore, for those who bought at Rp2200 and below in less than 2 months ago should consider to cash out if price reach Rp3000.

Another 2 counters going to cover will be Indocement and Holcim.
