The Dragon Bouncing BackSwift dismantling of zero-Covid policy in China has triggered a surge in demand resulting in robust economic recovery. Is this a flash in the pan or a structural shift?
Bouncing off from 2022 bottom in early November, Chinese equities (represented by FTSE China 50 Index, "China50 Index") rallied 64% on COVID easing. The rally has stalled based on specific sector weaknesses causing a 12% correction in February.
This paper argues that record revenues (over CNY holidays in January), anticipated pro-growth Government stimulus, record-levels of consumer savings, and loose monetary policy will collectively drive Chinese equities higher.
A long position in CME’s E-Mini FTSE China 50 Index futures will deliver a reward-to-risk ratio of 2.35x while riding this economic shift.
SECOND LEG OF RE-OPENING TO LEAD TO RECOVERY
Five reasons support our bullish stance on Chinese equities:
First, favourable technical signals. Stalled rally plus weak sentiments have caused the markets to retrace 12%, leaving it right below a key Fibonacci retracement level. This suggests that the FTSE China 50 Index could continue its upward trajectory in 2023 as reopening turns into recovery.
Second, pro-growth fiscal policies. Investors hold high anticipation of upcoming National People's Congress (NPC) scheduled for early March. During the “Two Sessions,” the government is expected to make pro-growth policy announcements to boost the economy.
Historical analysis shows that the Two Sessions (NPC plus top political advisory body meeting) tend to provide solid tail winds to the stock market. Shares have previously rallied ahead of the meetings and afterwards as investors digest the news. Over the last decade, real estate & healthcare shares delivered the largest excess returns following these meetings.
Third, accommodative monetary policies. Meanwhile, PBOC added liquidity into the financial system to meet a rapid rebound in loan demand. PBOC kept short-term & long-term Loan Prime Rate (LPR) unchanged for the sixth straight month. Short-term LPR was at 3.65%. Long-term LPR (used to calculate mortgage rates) was at 4.3%. Both are at their lowest level in 20 years as China tries to balance economic growth and currency stability.
Fourth, revenge spending. Forced to stay home due to Covid restrictions & unable to spend, Chinese consumers saved one-third of their income last year, depositing RMB 17.8 trillion (USD 2.6 trillion) into banks. Even for a thrifty nation like China, that's massive. With restrictions gone, will Chinese consumers revenge to spend their excess savings?
Finally, valuations of Chinese shares are seemingly still in bulls’ favour despite the reopening rally. The MSCI China Index is trading at 10.9x forward P/E, below the 10-year average of 11.2x.
In tandem with equity market price retracement, China centric commodities such as Iron Ore and Copper have also stalled. But are looking to rise again.
ECONOMIC DATA PAINTS A HOPEFUL FUTURE AHEAD
Economic data from China show positive signs of economic recovery in 2023. Purchasing Manager Index (PMI), an important leading indicator of business activity, rebounded sharply in January.
GOVERNMENT PRIORITIZING ECONOMIC GROWTH
The Chinese government has announced stimulus packages to support its struggling Real Estate and Tech Sectors. For instance, Guangzhou recently committed $29 billion to local tech funds to inject capital into high-tech sectors.
The government also announced a 21-point plan in January to boost property developer’s balance sheets with $67 billion in aid.
Moving in tandem with pro-growth Government accommodative fiscal policy, the PBOC continues its commitment to accommodative monetary policy by keeping key short- and long-term Loan Prime Rate (LPR) at their lowest level in almost two decades to boost growth.
However, this monetary stimulus comes at the cost of rising inflation in the country.
PROFESSIONAL INVESTORS ARE BULLISH CHINA AGAIN
In a note recently published by Goldman Sachs, the bank expects Chinese stocks to surge as much as 24% by the end of this year as the economy shifts from reopening to recovery.
The bank highlighted that "professional speculators" on their prime brokerage platform are showing a greater appetite for Chinese stocks.
Goldman highlighted that hedge funds had substantially re-risked their exposure in offshore Chinese equities with net Chinese exposure to total equity exposure reverting to all-time highs.
FOREIGN INVESTORS ARE BULLISH CHINA TOO
HKEX's Stock Connect program’s north bound flows shows that foreign investors heavily bought into Chinese equities in January and continue to so do in February despite retracement.
The Shanghai Northbound Stock Connect, which allows HK investors to access Chinese equities listed on Shanghai Stock Exchange (SSE) saw net buying of RMB 83.4B so far in 2023.
The Shenzhen Northbound Stock Connect shows net purchases of RMB 74.1B this year. In comparison, these investors bought RMB 9.6B of Shanghai & RMB 25.4B Shenzhen shares in December.
Besides the connect program, foreign investment into China scaled up in January to the highest level since June 2022. Foreign investors bought RMB 128 billion ($18.7 billion) according to China’s Ministry of Commerce. That was 14.5% higher YoY and a 75% jump in investment into high-tech manufacturing. This spike reversed two months of double-digit drops in late 2022.
DEMYSTIFYING THE CHINA 50 INDEX
The FTSE China 50 Index comprises of the 50 largest and most liquid Chinese stocks that are listed and traded in Hong Kong. The index is specifically designed for international investors to get exposure to Chinese equities.
The China 50 index is dominated by large tech stocks representing 23.4% of the index. Bank stocks have a 18% weightage with retailer shares weighing in at 15%.
The overall index provides a balanced with a mildly skewed tech exposure to Chinese equities.

TMV TEAMVIEWER has the potential for a 50% upsideTMV Teamviewer had its good momentum in 2020 and thereafter fell of from the traders radars. In the meantime the company has proved that it should not be mixed up as another "Zoom" company as it targets institutional accounts through its AR platform.
The recovery should be underway and a 23 eur PT could be realistic.
Watch to stop if the stock drops below 11 eur.
Copper Turning Red HotWhen China sneezes, commodities catch cold. Developments in China over the last quarter around zero COVID have paved the path to re-opening, which has a substantial impact on lives, livelihoods, and commodity prices.
China re-opening plus a raft of measures to spur the Chinese real estate sector sets the backdrop for copper prices to be bullish. This case study illustrates that a long position in CME Copper Futures with an entry at 3.95 and a target of 4.326 supported by a stop loss at 3.614 would yield a reward to risk ratio of 1.2.
On 14th November, we published – Copper Melting? , in which we were short term bearish while staying long term bullish on Copper. Our call then turned out correct with prices tanking in November but given the large-scale policy shifts in China now, we believe prices are well supported and set to rise.
RECOVERY FROM COVID LOCKDOWNS
Bounce-back from Covid lockdowns is visibly observed in various China-centric asset classes and currency. The chart below shows that since last September, Iron Ore has spiked 19% & Copper is up 12% buoyed by real estate recovery.
COVID-19 STILL LINGERS THREE YEARS ON
It is 2023, but COVID-19 still lingers. Covid lockdown hurts. Weak growth and stunted consumer confidence is evident from the chart below. Consumer confidence is at its lowest in 10 years. Based on data compiled by Bloomberg, rebound in subway traffic in key cities suggests that infections might have peaked. While the situation is still challenging for many, conditions in China might have passed peak Covid, suggesting shift in sentiments for the better.
MEASURES TO HELP CHINESE REAL ESTATE SECTOR
In addressing sagging consumer confidence and struggling real estate market, Beijing has embarked on pro-growth policy stance with accelerated reopening plans, plus a range of support measures for the real estate sector.
The measures to boost property market include (1) easing of lending restrictions, (2) lowering of mortgage rates, (3) capping real estate brokerage commissions, (4) dialing back on “three red-lines” lending policy for banks, (5) reducing down payment ratios for first time buyers, (6) removing minimum lending rates for first time purchases, (7) resuming approvals for private equity funds to raise money to invest in residential real estate, and, (8) strengthening of “too-big-to-fail” property developers.
Phased rollout of these measures is starting to have a positive impact. Since lows touched in November, Bloomberg Intelligence (BI) China Real Estate Developers Index is up 62%.
IRON ORE AND COPPER ARE AMONG THE FIRST TO BENEFIT FROM SUPPORT MEASURES
A booming real estate sector directly benefits Iron Ore and Copper. Sea-borne Iron Ore - majority of which is imported into China has been buoyant and is anticipated to rebound to $130/ton this quarter according to Citi. Over the past month, iron ore prices have also moved up with reopening hopes boosting sentiment.
Bloomberg reported late last week that China plans to tighten the supervision on iron ore pricing to curtail speculations, the National Development and Reform Commission said in a statement on its WeChat page.
The Bullish sentiment in the real estate sector is showing up in buoyant copper prices. Unfettered by regulatory actions on price rise, copper has stayed more resilient than iron ore highlighting its relative strength.
SPECIFIC EQUITY MARKET SECTOR INDICES INDICATING MARKET BOUYANCY
Shares of mainland Chinese property developers shot up last week on talks that the authorities plan to extend supportive measures for “good-quality developers”.
The chart above shows a bullish cup and handle formation on the Shanghai Stock Exchange (SSE) Real Estate Index that points to an imminent recovery in the sector. SSE Real Estate Index spiked 21% since November 1st while the SSE Transportation Index (chart below) has climbed just 3.6% during the same period.
SIGNS OF BULLISHNESS IN COPPER TECHNICAL SIGNALS
Copper’s short-term moving average is approaching the long-term moving average. A cross could point to the start of a rally.
Copper’s Bollinger bands have started to narrow pointing to a narrowing range which suggests that a breakout from the range.
Copper prices cooled off in November before recovering, this price action also displays a bullish cup and handle formation as prices have remained range-bound post-recovery. Prices hovering at these levels despite softer volumes suggests that prices have found support.
INSIGHTS IMPLIED FROM OPEN INTEREST AND OPTIONS MARKETS POINTS TO EARLY SIGNS OF BULLISHNESS
Based on the Commitment of Traders Report, over the past 12 weeks, funds, institutional investors, and managed money have reduced their net short positions in copper futures by a striking 71%. Meanwhile, during the same period, small speculators while individually small but collectively non-trivial have shifted from net short positions of -1,004 lots to net long of +4,838 lots.
The put-call ratio on CME Copper Options is 0.57, a sign that participants are bullish on the prospects of copper price.

[EURUSD] 2-year trading planWe've finally recovered from the crash that lead to the price plummeting through the 20-year-long support price.
Next, we return to the 7-year-long trend.
In a perfect world, we'd wait for the price to drop back down to ~1.0400 before opening a long position.
We might just see the USD market thrive (or, in the very least, perform a little less poorly) during the 23/24 recession.
Good luck out there.
Will we see another dead period for Crypto?It's no secret that we're heading into a global recession in 2023.
The question is, will the Crypto market feel the effects too?
At the start of 2021 we saw massive buying power come into play and the Crypto market boomed. We saw a 250% increase in prices over 2018's boom before it promptly imploded during mid-late 2022.
The previous "dead period" lasted for 2 and a half years . How long will the upcoming one last for? Will we see immediate recovery? Or will we need to wait it out?
Crypto is here to stay, so of course we go long (when looking long-term), but for now I'll keep my money in stocks and bonds elsewhere.
DASH May Have Found The Strong SupportDASH may have found the strong support, as we see it recovering within an impulsive five-wave cycle from Elliott wave perspective.
DASH with ticker DSHUSD is bouncing strongly and in an impulsive fashion away from the lows and it’s just about to break channel resistance line. It means that ending diagonal within wave 5 of (C) on a daily chart can be completed and bottom already in place, however, keep in mind that first bullish evidence is only above 69 region.
In the 4-hour chart we are tracking now a minimum three-wave (A)/(1)-(B)/(2)-(C)/(3) recovery that can send the price higher within wave (C) or maybe even wave (3), but ideally after a pullback in wave (B)/(2) which may show up as soon as it completes a five-wave rally within wave (A)/(1).
Happy trading!
XAU/USD Possible bullish recovery from support on goldXAU/USD is currently in a downtrend from the daily perspective, we may see it complete the downward trend at either 1692.78 or 1680.00. We could also see it break above 1709 for an upward continuation. I'm currently waiting for a break above or below the marked levels X and Y For any further directional certainty.
Crypto Market Is Recovering; Elliott Wave AnalysisCrypto market is recovering as strong rebound from the lows suggests a temporary support from Elliott wave perspective.
Cryptocurrencies are in a recovery mode again following news that SEC Division of Corporation Finance is about to Add Industry Offices Focused on Crypto Assets and Industrial Applications and Services( source ). Looking at the Crypto total market cap chart, we can see sharp and impulsive intraday bounce into first leg (A), which indicates for bigger (A)-(B)-(C) rally, especially if we consider an USD slow down. However, after a five-wave rally within wave (A), we should be aware of some pullback into wave (B) before we will see more upside for wave (C) towards 1.1T resistance area.
Due to dominance of BTC in the last couple of days, we will look for some BTCUSD longs with our members if we get slow corrective setback in wave (B).
Trade well!

SNOW: Resistance Becomes Support with Earnings Gap UpWhen this company IPO'd it was the big stock of the year. Alas, there has to be more to a company than a cute name.
SNOW had its earnings report late in the season and it gapped up on the news. The gap jumped over resistance, so it is not likely to fill easily. Resistance becomes support for this type of gap. This can suggest that SNOW may be a company beyond recovery and into potential long-term growth.
Amazon monthly may need reworkingthe long term picture for amazon.com, and really the whole dotcom sector has looked bleak until recently. i would wait to cross above this pivot and trama to turn up before i thought we could continue recovering in technology. id aim for upper horizontals as we cross above levels and lower horizontals as we cross below.
