Singapore 2Q15 GDP dropped 4.6% q-o-q
http://www.straitstimes.com/busines...2-advance-gdp-disappoints-quick-analyst-takes

GDP decline of such magnitude is like 1997 recession.

Ah run, is this biggest business the main contributor of margin, if it is then it's trouble ahead.

MTI will release updated GDP estimates for the second quarter in August, including performance by sectors, sources of growth, inflation, employment and productivity, in its Economic Survey of Singapore. we will have a clearer picture then.

i don't understand how inflation works, japan is now in deflation mode, unlikely any inflation, their target is 2% but currently they are only at 0.2% CPI. tell me about it.

japan had been in deflationary mode for too long, and a strong yen had not been helping. abenomics follows american "quantitative easing" during the last u.s. recession and exports fare better with a weaker yen. however, inflation is creeping in as imports become more expensive, especially oil to fuel the power plants in the wake of the tsunami and nuclear power plant disaster at fuckyoushima. if price of oil trends down, it will help bring inflation down.

for sg, pressure is on to ease monetary supply and not try to peg to a strong u.s. dollar although the sgd is also weighted and balanced against a basket of other currencies, notably the yen, euro and swiss franc.

Market total meltdown already
Shanghai composite index, the more stable shares (some are banking shares) drop by 64points or close to 2%

Looks like communist is so hopeless to maintain the market.

In comparison, Singapore's 2Q15 GDP down 4.6%
RUN knows a girl from Shanghai Bureau of Statistics, she told RUN that economic numbers are not from the ground.
So if Chinese leadership want SSE 5000, they will do all it takes to make it 5000

just this morning, communist government released China GDP data which beat analysts forecast.
this should be good news.

however, if it is good news, why Shanghai Composite Index dropped by 165 points today?

Looks like the shanghai mei mei was very busy yesterday

http://in.reuters.com/article/2015/07/15/us-china-economy-gdp-stats-idINKCN0PP07720150715
China's National Bureau of Statistics said on Wednesday that the positive changes in the economy in the April-June quarter were "hard won", and the employment situation was better than expected in the first six months of this year. Bureau spokesman Sheng Laiyun said the second-quarter economic growth data of 7 percent, which beat analysts' forecasts of 6.9 percent, were accurate, and there was no issue of the figures being inflated.

they are always 0.1 ahead of analysts' forecast. heads they win, tail you lose. analysts should forecast a bogus number, say 6.869%, and they would announce 6.969% (double 69 orgy). bunch of frauds. :wink:

Asian Nikkei Review: Asean will also be hit by 1MDB, Najib fallout
http://www.todayonline.com/world/as...-hit-1mdb-najib-fallout-says-business-daily-0

Asean will also be affected by the fallout from the corruption allegations swirling around Prime Minister Najib Razak and 1Malaysia Development Berhad (1MDB), says the Asian Nikkei Review today (July 16).

Malaysia’s problems have already led to capital flight with the ringgit being Asia’s worst performing currency this year, said the Asia-focused business newspaper, adding that anxiety surrounding Malaysia has spread to other South-east Asian financial markets at a time when the region needed a stable Malaysia.

“If Malaysian politics become mired in instability, it will not be a domestic problem alone. Confidence in South-east Asia as a whole will also take a hit,” it said in an opinion piece published online today.
