1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,800 Speaker 1: Let's get to our guests. Grace Term's chief investment advisor 2 00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:06,440 Speaker 1: at BNP Parable Wealth Management, Hong Kong with us from 3 00:00:06,480 --> 00:00:09,879 Speaker 1: Hong Kong. So it's very interesting to hear what Andrew 4 00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:12,559 Speaker 1: Bailey said that if you had some bigger hikes like 5 00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:14,960 Speaker 1: the seventy five basis points that they just delivered, that 6 00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:17,280 Speaker 1: that would induce a two year recession. We're not kind 7 00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:20,239 Speaker 1: of hearing those warnings from the FED as well, though. 8 00:00:20,720 --> 00:00:23,880 Speaker 1: What kind of concern is there that overtightening here is 9 00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:27,840 Speaker 1: going to trigger some kind of credit event? Yeah, I 10 00:00:27,840 --> 00:00:31,639 Speaker 1: think on the recession concerns as it's definitely one of 11 00:00:31,720 --> 00:00:35,720 Speaker 1: the Kist and the others credit events because I mean, 12 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 1: especially when you look at the history UM whenever like 13 00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:43,280 Speaker 1: UM the fad is tight s name especially for now 14 00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:47,360 Speaker 1: this is a fast tightening cycle. We worry about something 15 00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: with break and so UM. We're not sure whether UM 16 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:54,480 Speaker 1: there would trigger credit events, but the risk is there. 17 00:00:54,880 --> 00:00:59,600 Speaker 1: And also in terms of the recession UM like Europe 18 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:03,720 Speaker 1: UK they may already in the recession, and we also 19 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 1: think that they the US UM there's a houp chance 20 00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 1: for the US economy to go into recession UH in 21 00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: the second quarter next year, and that's certainly been I 22 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:17,120 Speaker 1: guess reflected to in what we're seeing in bond deals 23 00:01:17,160 --> 00:01:19,720 Speaker 1: with the two tenure yield curve at a level not 24 00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 1: seen in around four decades. What kind of further, I 25 00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 1: guess market movers are you looking for and where do 26 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: we see this curve go from here? Yeah, I think 27 00:01:29,240 --> 00:01:32,920 Speaker 1: especially UM for markets. Now I'm still digesting UM what 28 00:01:33,680 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 1: chair Power UM spoke in the conference and know which 29 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:42,040 Speaker 1: is a very hockeyg message UM. So I think UM 30 00:01:42,040 --> 00:01:45,320 Speaker 1: there's still chance for for use UM I mean, especially 31 00:01:45,440 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 1: UM to to go up. However, especially I mean when 32 00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:54,880 Speaker 1: we look at economic data, especially I think UM going 33 00:01:55,000 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: for works. We could see, especially for the US economic 34 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:02,840 Speaker 1: data's momentum I will continue to slow and people started 35 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:09,120 Speaker 1: again to worried about the recessions. And this is actually UH, 36 00:02:09,160 --> 00:02:12,280 Speaker 1: I mean, would drive more demand for the U. S 37 00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:15,519 Speaker 1: Treasury as a hatch and UM and so our ars 38 00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:19,079 Speaker 1: could could go down for US, our tenure, our your 39 00:02:19,080 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: sturgury target is actually three point five percent by the 40 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,679 Speaker 1: end of next year. We saw a huge rally in 41 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:28,639 Speaker 1: the SNP five as well in the month of October. 42 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:30,800 Speaker 1: Is that is that a bear market rally or is 43 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:35,080 Speaker 1: it something more sustained. Yeah, we we think it looks 44 00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:38,240 Speaker 1: like a bear market rally, and we also think that 45 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:42,240 Speaker 1: we could see um more by market rally any time, 46 00:02:42,800 --> 00:02:46,000 Speaker 1: especially I mean from market right now. Bad news on 47 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,919 Speaker 1: economic data is actually good news for market um expectation 48 00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:55,600 Speaker 1: of less aggressive central band hikes um So. But still 49 00:02:55,639 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 1: I think we were thinking we could see more dun 50 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:03,399 Speaker 1: side after the market rally because first of all, as 51 00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:06,560 Speaker 1: UM I mean, for the current demvelopment is like rising 52 00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:11,280 Speaker 1: real yields, and also we're seeing tacting financial confessions and 53 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:15,360 Speaker 1: usually this tend not to vote well for our processes. 54 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:19,239 Speaker 1: And also um, despite I mean we we already see 55 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 1: a sell off in the recess like this year. We 56 00:03:22,080 --> 00:03:26,480 Speaker 1: think like the credits, breast earnings that snirds p multiples, 57 00:03:26,560 --> 00:03:32,200 Speaker 1: everything is not really prizing previous processionary levels. Yeah. So, 58 00:03:32,240 --> 00:03:34,760 Speaker 1: earlier in the week, Grace a lot of optimism that 59 00:03:34,840 --> 00:03:37,680 Speaker 1: we would be seeing a path to reopening in China, 60 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,400 Speaker 1: and that saw Chinese and Hong Kong stocks and particularly 61 00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 1: those Chinese stocks listed in Hong Kong rally. But then 62 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: a reversal as we were told they are resolutely adhering 63 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:50,480 Speaker 1: to that policy. What kind of is going to be 64 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:54,440 Speaker 1: the momentum to turn assets around in China. And when 65 00:03:54,440 --> 00:03:59,200 Speaker 1: do we get that path to reopening? Yeah, I think UM, Yes, 66 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:02,640 Speaker 1: as you said, UM, the reopening is really UM one 67 00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:06,560 Speaker 1: of the key capitalists UM to see some turnaround, especially 68 00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 1: in terms of the first sentiment, which now is very 69 00:04:10,560 --> 00:04:15,160 Speaker 1: very weak. UM. I think UM, UM, for now there's 70 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:18,840 Speaker 1: no indication of when UM the market is going to 71 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:21,599 Speaker 1: I mean they the Chinese becomany is going to reopen. 72 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:25,479 Speaker 1: I think UM even like if they can have any 73 00:04:25,600 --> 00:04:29,400 Speaker 1: signals or even UM is going to say if it's 74 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 1: a really gradual path, As long as there is a 75 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 1: clear direction that UM China is going to reopen, I 76 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,880 Speaker 1: think the market will be cheer up and UM we 77 00:04:38,920 --> 00:04:42,040 Speaker 1: could see some turnaround. But UM, I think obviously for 78 00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:47,200 Speaker 1: now it's still outwaiting UM the signals and UM the others. 79 00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: I think the property market is also a key UM 80 00:04:51,480 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 1: because I mean, for now, if we well continue to 81 00:04:54,880 --> 00:04:58,800 Speaker 1: see it's UM, I mean the bottoming protect but if 82 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,919 Speaker 1: if we have any signal that is going to be 83 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:04,560 Speaker 1: like bottom outs, I think that would also be a 84 00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:09,359 Speaker 1: good catalyst for each Chinese UM as a market. And 85 00:05:09,400 --> 00:05:12,400 Speaker 1: the third one is UM the China a d L 86 00:05:12,600 --> 00:05:15,039 Speaker 1: or the tech. Um. I think we're going to have 87 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:20,000 Speaker 1: some like preliminary fine things by November of this or 88 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:24,200 Speaker 1: early December. Um, if there is any I mean signs 89 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:27,200 Speaker 1: of uh, the old detain, it's going to be like um, 90 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:30,920 Speaker 1: weren't very smoothly, it's going to approve and those could 91 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 1: also be very positive caltalyst for the Chinese market. And 92 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:37,600 Speaker 1: what does it mean in terms of the consumer kind 93 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,240 Speaker 1: of trying to drive the economy too, because we know 94 00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 1: that people have been not able to spend when they 95 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 1: haven't been able to travel or leave their homes in 96 00:05:45,760 --> 00:05:49,280 Speaker 1: some cases with these lockdowns. We're looking according to Bloomberg 97 00:05:49,279 --> 00:05:52,600 Speaker 1: Intelligence that Ali Barber saying its first singles day drop 98 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:55,880 Speaker 1: in fourteen years. And people just reluctant to spend when 99 00:05:55,960 --> 00:05:58,960 Speaker 1: they don't know if they're facing another lockdown or when 100 00:05:58,960 --> 00:06:04,240 Speaker 1: they can get out. Yeah, I think exactly, Um, Um, 101 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,360 Speaker 1: I think um for now, I mean everybody just wanted 102 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:11,360 Speaker 1: to know. UM, I mean whether they're going to really 103 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:16,159 Speaker 1: have any relaxation in terms of the COVID rescriptions, because 104 00:06:16,200 --> 00:06:21,120 Speaker 1: I mean now our business confidence, consumer confidence, UM, it's 105 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:25,400 Speaker 1: all really depends on the the COVID policies. I mean, 106 00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:29,559 Speaker 1: if there is really a clear path of like even 107 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:33,960 Speaker 1: like gradual reopening, I think um, this would help consumer confidence, 108 00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: investment confidence, and also business confidence. Yeah. And so what 109 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:42,200 Speaker 1: what markets in Asia do you see as beneficiaries If 110 00:06:42,240 --> 00:06:45,359 Speaker 1: we are not seeing some reopening themes happening in Hong 111 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,080 Speaker 1: Kong and China, but we are across the rest of 112 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:50,560 Speaker 1: the region. There was a call yesterday that Thailand's market, 113 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 1: for example, could see a fourteen percent stock jump on 114 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 1: the back of its reopening. Yeah. I think UM in 115 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:02,440 Speaker 1: terms of China, UM, I mean especially I think um 116 00:07:02,680 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: UM given I mean the the downside, and for those 117 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:09,520 Speaker 1: like medium to learn long term investors, I think they 118 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:15,720 Speaker 1: can uh focus on those like policy beneficiaries, especially ussy 119 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 1: or No, China is still very committed UM to the 120 00:07:19,000 --> 00:07:22,880 Speaker 1: to degree in agenda with very aggressive target in terms 121 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:27,440 Speaker 1: of the common h emissions reduction. So I mean in 122 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:31,320 Speaker 1: terms of those like ev UM supply chains UM, the 123 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 1: the clean energies UM like those screen um um construction materials, 124 00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:41,680 Speaker 1: those areas that I think investors could could know that 125 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:45,000 Speaker 1: focus on, especially can can think about like buying buying 126 00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:48,600 Speaker 1: on lips and UM and for the whole Asia. I 127 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:52,840 Speaker 1: think the key um to see uh, I mean rebound 128 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 1: in the whole Asia performance. Really to look at the 129 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:02,200 Speaker 1: US dollar. I mean if we already reached the peak 130 00:08:02,320 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 1: hock actioness of the fat um, we may already seen 131 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 1: the peak in the viewers dollars. So um I think, 132 00:08:09,880 --> 00:08:12,800 Speaker 1: um yeah. The key is whether I mean we were 133 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 1: going to see some like refers in trend of the U. 134 00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: S dollar, and it is we're seeing like we can 135 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:22,560 Speaker 1: name US dollar. This will be a really positive um 136 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:27,720 Speaker 1: capitalist for the Asian especially for equities. All Right, Grace, 137 00:08:27,760 --> 00:08:29,640 Speaker 1: it's been a pleasure. I have a love of lovely weekend. 138 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:33,679 Speaker 1: Grace tamp's chief investment advisor BMP Parable Wealth Management, Hong Kong, 139 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:36,160 Speaker 1: with us from Hong Kong here on Bloomberg Daybreak Asia
