The Hong Kong Exchange and the shanghai. Just about broken in the last hour. What have we got . What do we know . We know the starting day now is the member 17, so we are hoping, we are expecting it to the month. Day in this will, of course, allow for crossborder daily purchases, and the delayed to the shanghai stock index. We do not know why. Protests ated the some point, but we do not know what happened. We only hear that brokers have been working overtime to get this started. Now, with the start of this link, were going to see chinese investors trading in hong kong, using the system. Foreigners to directly buy more mainland shares. Key point. Foreigners will have unprecedented access to chinas 4. 2 trillion dollar equity market, and we are seeing a lot of excitement, yes, you guess just last week, we heard from the osaka exchange, telling us thisjapan wanted in in Hong Kong Shanghai stockinette, no specifics, just that they wanted to get in. We also have shenzhen. It is not just the Hong Kong Shanghai market. A lot of buzz we have seen lately is also that market, because right now the equity age is trading near an alltime high relative to shares in shanghai. Now, bank of america and Templeton Emerging Markets fund Shanghai Hong Kong and get started, it will follow within two years. We now hear that we have a launch date of november 17, so we are going to see what comes out with the equipment for this stock in that. Right. Thanks for that. And looking at the hong kong onnges themselves, reacting this news, as well, and looking at the brokerages which do trade on the Hong Kong Exchange, getting a feel of what we can expect when things get underway, lets go over to john dawson. In a few minutes. Is a tell you there twoday chart, and you can see friday, this spike up, this is actually amid speculation that the markets were actually reversing. The jump up, that was really due to the hang seng. Entire asias the region. Again, thisn to, rehearsal. They lifted the markets. Nevertheless, that was down. ,he key areas, the exchanges all of the financial stocks isin, and what will happen 2. 2 billion u. S. , and the foreign transactions will be open again, and they will be theing the markets to Foreign Investors, the american and european investors, and this is enormous exposure. We will have reaction to this and also getting cpi and pbi figures out of china, and, of course, hong kong reacting in kind. I will show you the map today. This is away from the chinese open. But we do have is taiwan is opening higher. And then the singapore straits and malaysia. They open the Hong Kong Shanghai and others, you may see another. Greenlighted. That is a big, big step of confidence. By three is down quarters of 1 . Australia is falling. Gains, but has overall, a mixed picture. This. N definitely see taiwan, the opening price, medical, and the Holding Company there. You can see, and the korean kospi is up. Also, being led higher by u. S. Jobs on friday. That is the foundation. Good news. For the hongdate kong china connect, and it is coming up, november 17. , and we cana date move forward. Thanks. Right. Equity strategist. A very good morning to you. So what does this move mean for you guys there . Well, we have always been overweight and bullish on asia. As mentioned in the last interview on september 15. I think this move has been delayed by about two weeks, and this was potentially due to the political situation in hong kong and the clarity over the Capital Gains tax. This will be positive. Historically, the age shares have traded at a premium the hares have traded at a premium. Especially over the near to medium term. That is interesting, jason, as we see that premium decline. What is your view on how much of this news has already been priced into the h sharemarket . Abouty were trading at 19. 95. This time around that we expect some difference in price, and there was a hit last friday, as well. We expected there to be a lot , goingom for the upside towards the historical average. 20 , andund 18 to three groups are starting to benefit from this announcement today. The first would be the shares trading at a huge premium i am sorry, a huge discount, and the second would be the brokers and the exchanges, definitely, and then the stocks that are not well represented. Gaming stocks as well as technology stocks. Jason, what happens then when we look at the flow of money here . Who is going to be the winner . Yes, a lot more north rather than southern. It is possible the first few days will really be dominated by a lot. Probably in the beginning few days, it could be hit over the first few days, but eventually, perhaps it will be less of an issue. But to answer your question, probably more north and south at the beginning of the start of the connection. Which, we have got only a limited amount of funds that will be allowed to be traded between the two. That is expected to widen. How much do you think it will be widened to, and when do we get free flow trade . At this point in time, it is hard to say, but will be see at this point in time, the markets themselves will see a lot more volume coming through, and as long as perhaps there could , but for now time in the shortterm, we do not know. What about other cities getting involved . We talk about a potential of shenzhen and hong kong, a similar deal. What about other cities getting into the mix, as well . In shanghai, coming together with some of the officials and the Hong Kong Exchange. It is clear to me that this is going to be a game changer. This is only the beginning, not the end. After the official launch of this hong kong stock connect, we could expect more collaborations. Not really with the equity market. Part in this, as well. Expecting this collaboration to take place across asset classes. Beginning,really the and then theres china and legalization. Jason, thank you. From singapore. News, Foreign Affairs ministers. Free trade will be sealed with in days. Lets go to sydney. This is 10 years actually in the making. Is it really going to happen . Well, certainly the planets are aligned in terms of the right people being at the right place at the same time, and a nice signing ceremony, and Prime Minister tony abbott is in china for the apec summit, and then the chinese president xi jinping comes here, and he will address parliament in one weeks time. There are plenty of opportunities to get this deal theed that all of negotiations would demand. There are some sticking points, all beastly, from australia a positive perspective, mainly dealing with agriculture, seeking a similar generous deal as to what new zealand has gotten, and they would like to see the process for Chinese State owned enterprises who want to be investing streamlined, and also the investment cap, so still plenty to be discussed even as we head into the final straight, but as one observer to these talks put it, you cannot cook anything until the oven is hot, and when it comes to train trade deals, china does have form for making lastminute decisions. Paul allen in sydney. Until foreignng investors have greater access to the chinese equity market. Is it something to get excited about . We are looking at that and more, after the break. Inwell, World Leaders are beijing for the apec summit, not surprisingly, china is making the most of the attention that is being generated. Chinese president xi jinping is touting the countrys economic muscle, as he signed deals with countries near and far, and Stephen Engle is at the summit and joins us now. Steve, what kind of picture can we draw today . Well, we have blue skies. They are starting to haze over a little bit. We just had a long procession of the chinese domestic limousine maker cars that were driven by tse dung and mao others. There are number of different days,rals over the coming including with president xi jinping. Offident xi jinping kicked the ceo summit this weekend with a rousing speech, saying chinas slowing economy should not be viewed as being scary. He said the chinese economy is getting to a more sustainable level of growth, one that is going to rely more on consumptiondriven growth rather than investment and, of course, exports. He said china holds lasting and infinite promise for those who and the destinations where china invests, and he gave some pretty large statistics, as well. Trillion u. S. In Outbound Investment will, over the next decade, and he expects to import more than 10 trillion over the next five years, all the while maintaining steadfast the reform process. Lets hear from president xi jinping. Reform has entered the deepwater zone, where tough challenges must be met, and we have to have the strength to crack the tough nuts and deal with chronic problems. Well, with president obama arriving this morning, of course much is made of the United States pivoting cube asia and the Strategic Alliance with japan. Regina china will be using the summit to push their own initiatives. They have proposed their own regional trade zone, if you will, to counter the Transpacific Partnership , which doesobama not include china at this moment. Also, of course, china has proposed its own Asian Investment infrastructure bank, if you will, switching out for the taiwanese dollar. And again, reacting to the situation. Overall the taiwanese dollar and the aussie. And that is what is going on at this moment. And it ended here in hong kong, and we are, of course, getting reaction. It will start next monday. The market opening up with 4. 8 . About six minutes from now. And lets check on some other the stories making headlines around the world. 25 years since the fall of the berlin wall. This is on this stretch of the divide. And weaken gorbachev was there, and there was the former president there. Some dreams of peace and freedom. And facing murder charges today, accused of killing two indonesian women. They said this could be procedural. Looking to have it transferred to the high court. And after three years, in 2010, cracks in the northern side of a bank. One of the largest things used on earth. 20 meters. I think it was created years ago. And people plan to vote with about half of them reporting. Ok, lets take a look. Hong kong and shanghai markets. Ending with a gain of 2. 2 . The commencement of the Hong Kong Shanghai connect. And this is next monday. Any hang seng futures, 2. 8 . Watching the Hong Kong Exchange itself. 4. 8 . And for the brokerages, reaction there. Also in shanghai, as well. In the open for the hong kong and shanghai markets, coming up, right after this very short rate. Short break. And exchange of views. At the hang seng index index, heading for a rally. With a criminal investigation, and takata plunges once again. Looking at raising the sales tax once again. And the shanghai stock connect, and it will be on november 17. And we will be digesting the news at the start of the session. 2. 2 . And the Hong Kong Exchanges, there is again. Hong kong exchanges rising, and we do have these down. And this could be a dealbreaker. Tax deals are so important. The exchanges. With the casino stocks, which you can see, may numbers. An obvious sector. With the shanghai connect. And also, all six of them. And this is with china. China of their. Hong kong rising the most of any market in asia. Top performers. China resources. And, of course, the Hong Kong Exchanges. Ok, we have got the ppi number coming in with another decline. Slightly worse than expected. September saw a drop. Consumer prices coming in line. This was pretty much, as i said, exactly what the economists had been thinking. We had the previous month, and we will have more on this breaking data and have more developing about the Shanghai Hong Kong stock connection, but lets start off with the economic data. The chief asia economist is now with me. Thank you very much for joining us. This pbi number, why dont we see that translates into the pbi level, or are realready seeing that . Or are we already seeing that . Ppi is very, very concerning. People talk about the overhang. Months of this figure being negative. It should be unwound by now. Yes. There is a history with the pbi, in this is with the capacity. Also, weak demand. And there was the global demand. A drop in the commodity price. How was it over the weekend . This is thanks to the export number. Which is worrying. When you think about it, this is an economy that is slowing down. It is not really reflected in that gdp data. That is in two years time. 7 could be there with the future. Even lower growth. But, actually, that is room for structural change, and the fiscal reform. Fiscal reform and state owned enterprise reform. We have been talking about this. We should not hold our breath, should we . I think it will be a key year for china. Ok, lets get to the other big story today, and that is the Hong Kong Shanghai stock connect. Is this a game changer . It is, and it is also for reform. Think about this. Foreigners can buy, and that is a very significant step. It will be critical if they want to have that. Yes. A key part of it. China already at the investment side. Slowing investment in china. And this will be a another one. About the capital markets. Ok, but what are the implications overall . This is part of the whole process of making it freefloating . Exactly. But also, china has done quite a lot. This is the markets. This will form the key. All right. That is the thing. Do we get this, maybe going into derivatives . With the commodities . Exactly. These are also going to the decimals. This is from a broad. What we were talking about, the hong kong shenzhen link, as well. That market has really, really outperformed everybody. This is part of it. This will be the next. Thank you very much. And we are going to get more on this, because it is not just the Hong Kong Shanghai, but we will also have the data. Further declines. Will we see . 1. 6 . This is exactly the same as after the figures came out. And i will get rid of that and this is 2. 2 . This is in line with estimates, as well. This is the sort of story. This is reacting to the Hong Kong Shanghai connect event. A crucial technical level. What we have not done is the tax details. What it means. Who is going to pay the tax. And the investments again. That was still forthcoming. The tax could be a dealbreaker. You never really know the details. How complicated it is, and there are all of these factors. It is a good starting point. And there are hurdles, with that in the middle. The 24,000 level there. One point 1 . Thank you. And we will be talking about taxes, and we have the sales taxes that are going to be raised again next year. We have a new Bloomberg Survey inning as new direction, and lets go over to tokyo. The economists and market economists, raising it, as planned, to 10 next october. Event that will affect that decision when it is taken . The government has basically said they looked at the Third Quarter gdp data, which will come out next monday, and based on that data, they will make their decision by the end of the year. So we should have a reasonable idea about how they did last quarter, and they will say this growth is strong enough, or this growth is not strong enough. They are expecting it to be about 2. 8 . It is growth, but it is not very strong growth. Compared to the second quarter, it does not go anywhere to get to the contraction that happened then. So it is quite weak growth, and the expectations for growth have been falling basically since august. Every time we do a survey, the expectations are different. It is not a very confident number. They will decide that. It is not clear how strong it will be for them to raise it. James, to they have any direction on this from the government ministers . Mr. Aso said they should raise the sales tax. They will have to raise the tax. Being much more cagey. And it would have to be made quickly, and they will not postpone it. He will decide when the time comes. There was a story out over the weekend that abe may choose to postpone and go to an election. That just seems to be in the government policy, to see how much simpler that would get. The feeling within the government, the ruling party, from the from the coalition, it is that the tax should be raised as planned, so the majority of senior figures in the government seem to agree that the tax should be raised, even if that is going to push japan into another contraction next year. James, joining us there about the sales tax increase next october there, as well. Ok, a preview of what is coming up next. That is the spirit. Going into the christmas season. This is on the move here is shery. Highspeed rail is heading for mexico. It was later than planned. When bidding is set to reopen this month, there was a Consortium Led by China Railway construction. They are fighting concerns that china rail will be bidding again.

Right, lets just check in. This is the nikkei 225 going lower. Stronger antonyy stronger yen, kay 225 changed by about 6 10 of 1 . The sydney market is down. Letsout to singapore, have a look at what is going on there. Straits times industry looking like a particularly dismal day there.

Giving up some of the gains. 400 17 points. Shanghai also, just below that psychologically important 24,000 level. Ok, lets just turn and have a look at the news that will be dominating the agenda over the course of the next five trading days. On tuesday, a court handing down a verdict on the 16 crewmembers of the ferry that sank in april, killing more than 300 people. Prosecutorss demanding the Death Penalty for the captain, and that is for abandoning the vessel while students were still aboard, and a big day for online sales, for alibaba on meaning billions in transaction volume. Last year, the company turned over or than twice the volume. All of the black friday and and thenday sales, t companysian interne behind alibaba pushing to expand its mobile applications. And moving on from china to myanmar, other leaders are spending two days there at the aseanmit that summit. And a luxury car story. Uber is looking to expand and raise money to do so. What are people actually saying . They want to expand. They are already operating in 200 20 cities worldwide, and they want to expand more internationally, so they are trying to raise 1 billion, and now they are talking to new and existing investors about how to raise capital, but one of the people familiar with the situation says it is still too early to talk about the evaluation, but the ceo is seeking a higher valuation than the 17 billion that they got in their fundraising back in june from investors led by fidelity. Now, with that financing boom in silicon valley, uber is already among the highest valued companies in the u. S. , and now they are looking for expansion. Not everybody is actually happy with them, especially cap drivers. They are facing increasing competition in their industry, so that is not good for them. Many parts of the world. Protests. London. Right. And nowe at some point, i hear they are cooperating with cabdrivers. With the latest on their plans to raise 1 billion. Now, the space adventure, and theellar unofficial start to the holiday season. Big hero 6 extended the disney success by bringing Marvel Comics to the big screen. And the Matthew Mcconaughey movie got 50 million in ticket sales. That is what we have right now. And lets have a look at these markets. Going great guns. And this will be next monday. More on that.

We are talking hong kong and shanghai. The story has been developing since about an hour ago. Have a date, november 17, next monday. Were expecting it to be in october. We were expecting it to be in october. The has been causing a lot of volatility in hong kong markets. This will allow chinese investors to trade in hong kong stocks and Foreign Investors to directly by mainland shares. That is the key because foreigners will have unprecedented access to the 4 trillion chinese equity market. There has been a lot of excitement about this. We just heard last week from the ceo of autocracy exchange otaka exchange that japan wants in on the linkup and they are saying that it changes the markets. Theerhaps this is one of many baby steps, if you well, on the way to the liberalization. Lets take a look at shenzhen, because you are talking to me about this an hour ago. This is creating buzz. Praxis is a market that people are excited about. This is a market that people are excited about. Their equities are having a large gains. Take of america, and the Templeton Emerging Markets group are saying that we may be seeing within twoequivalent years. Many analysts are excited about the market. Take you for that. Thank you for that. There is a market reaction. Look at the hong kong market, up by 1. 5 today. The kong is without a doubt strongest indexed in southeast asia. Stocks are up 4 because mainlanders can go to the casinos to bet money but what they cannot do is invest in them. Hong kong exchanges, that is the key there, 4 gains. We see companies rising. We have the reaction to the have therst of all, we index below 24,000. It was above the earlier on. China, for example. 2. 44. You can see it rebounding at the moment. The Hong Kong Exchanges, as you can see, up by 4 . Examples purely driven by the announcement. I keep saying this, it is what are the Tax Implications . Big of the taxes, how big are they, and how long do they get taxed . On transactions, can you go under the radar or will it before and investors as opposed to the local ones . Casino stocks, Mainland China has 19 of the clientele of these companies. Mgm china, ligety stocks. Look at these stocks. , all of it seen gains because they can benefit the most from the connect. That is all from the financials. World leaders are in beijing for the apec summit and china is making the most of the attention being generated. President xi jinping has been talking up his countrys economic muscle. He has been signing trade agreements. Steve joins us with a picture of what we are looking at today. I have covered a number of these different events and apec over the next couple of decades, i have covered many of them. This is an interesting one because it is being held in china, the rising china. And it is all about china right now. I feel sorry for the Southeast Asian nations or the latin american countries here because they may be drowned out a little bit. Xi jinping,isten to he says that there is opportunity with chinas rise for all the members of the apec half which makes up almost of global trade and the three largest economies in the world, the United States, china, and japan. Xi jinping talking at the ceo summit, the beginning of the festivities. He says that chinas rise should not be worrisome to the world. Greatt it is a opportunity for the world and holds lasting and infinite promise. Those are his words and he says that a flowing chinese economy should not be viewed slowing a chinese economy should not be viewed as scary. There is room for growth left. Even 7 is considered a strong chinese economy. Figureillion is the president xi give us for Outbound Investment target for the next decade. Even more impressive is imports. Over the next five years, china will import, as they moved way consumption driven economy, some 10 trillion worth of goods over the next half decade. They have a reform agenda as well. Here is what xi jinping had to say. The asiapacific has daunting tasks of raising the quality and efficiency of the economy and replacing old growth areas with new ones. There are Different Directions and priorities in accelerating the Regional Economic integration process, making it difficult to make a choice. That report is coming in from our china correspondent, steve. Lets go to some of the other stories. Highspeed rail is heading for mexico with bidding said to reopen this month. The project had been awarded to a Consortium Led by China Railway, the mexico canceled it. But mexico canceled it. China railway will be allowed to bid again. Is engaging in fundraising to expand. There talking to new and existing investors to raise about 1 billion. In june, they raised more than that, valuing it at 70 billion. 17 billion. At the unofficial start of the holiday season, big hero 6 extended disneys success at bringing Marvel Comics to the bigs green, taking in around 60 million. Took second place, 50 million in ticket sales there. Next, awash in oil but will opec cut production . We will discuss the and more after the break. We are coming to live from our Central Studios in hong kong, streaming on bloomberg. Com as well as your mobile device. This is on the move. The bear market for crude oil deepened last week as they fell to a threeyear low. This is due to an increase supply in the energy market. We are seeing a rebound but lets see what is going on. I am joining by a respected authority on the energy market, gary ross. Singapore. Thank you for joining us, gary. Main talk about the drivers of what we have been seeing in recent weeks with the oil price going down. Is it a case of demand or excess supply . It is a combination. Clearly supply is growing tremendously, over 2 Million Barrels a day this year. But demand has been poor, 600,000 barrels a day. You can see from those numbers that the imbalance is about a million and half barrels a day. Too much supply relative to demand, a major imbalance. Absolutely. What can be done about it . People are talking about shale oil, the big new player in the market. This is making it uneconomical. What do you make of that . Shelll, i think that is the key and we need to see lower prices to slowdown u. S. Growth. They have to lay down some rigs to correct this imbalance. Veryhat is why opec could well try to do something on the november 27 meeting. And they get is probably not going to be enough because there is just too bad much supply relative to demand even for 2015. It looks like we will be in a weak environment for some time. Me, with saudies arabia being the swing producer, but even they cannot make much of a difference. But even if they do cut, doesnt that racy incentive to cheat . Raise the incentive to cheat . That is a good point rid this is 1979 for saudi arabia all over again. They were 10 Million Barrels a day and they looks to support and they sawear volume declined to 3 Million Barrels a day by 1985. They learned that lesson. Theyre not very far from 10 Million Barrels a day today and they are not looking to support and see the volumes collapse. The effects of the matter are facts of have to the matter are that they have to allow the praise to come down to move towards restoring a balance between supply and demand. Clearly it is the u. S. Where, in 2014, 1. 6 billion barrels are being produced 1. 6 Million Barrels are being produced. Lower prices are going to affect the u. S. But that has to be the answer, it has to be lower prices. Have been there and done the experience of trying to support the price and it will not work. Is the line of least resistance for the oil price the downside, and how long and how load we go . Low do we go . You have the iranian meeting with the p5 plus one countries and there may be ideal. We have raise the probability towards 60 but there will be ideal announced at that meeting that there will be a deal announced at that meeting. And then opec will meet. With opec there is a question of how much of an imbalance table want. If they continue at the september imbalance that they want. If they continue, the imbalance will be tremendous. There has to be some cut at the november 27 meeting to reduce the imbalance for 2015. From saudi arabia up austria stress perspective, while they are worried about market share and concerned about keeping the price too high, they also care about opec. I think that opec is important to them and they will be prepared to do something. The question is, first, you have iran and the new have opec. Whatever opec does and then you have opec. Does, we will be left with an imbalance. Have to believe that when we come around 90 days from now prices will be considerably lower than they are today. Is that saudihing arabia cares about opec but they also care about the budget situation and keeping the population happy, and that is something the other opec members are concerned about. What do they do . Well, that is a very good question. [laughter] saudi arabia is sitting there with a hundred Million Dollars in the bank. Bankth 800 million in the. I would not worry about saudi arabia, they are breaking the bank. They are in great shape and they withive with lower prices no impact on their economy. Because they can continue to spend. The other countries will have a much harder time. Iraq is already running a huge deficit and will be in financial straits. That is why there is pressure on them to do a deal with the kurds which could lead to more volume, by the way. The other countries, iran and nigeria, they will be hurting, but the reality is that a lower price will be to a stronger Market Leader. It is sacrifice now with the idea that things will move directionally in their favor. Over a few years time. Weak. Has been that the believe growth is real, we believe that there is pentup demand. It is not real in terms of how much potential demand there could be if prices were lower. I think that will encourage Economic Growth also. Every 10 decline leads to a. 1 or. 15 increase in global gdp. It will be doing kamal demand at the margin. Lead to incremental demand at the margin. But that is just the thing here. We have a few conspiracy theories going around. I want to get your view on one of them, which revolves again around saudi arabia. That is sager literate that this is a deliberate action by them to shut down the shale industry in the u. S. What you make of that . Strictlyot think it is linked to that end or what i say that it is linked to other objectives they have like market share in asia where they have lost market share. Or not helping nonallies. Things of that sort. I think that they are just doing saudi arabia, i have into the kingdom many times and i know the people there who are involved in oil policy. They care about oil supply and demand and price. Youhe market is telling that the fundamentals are such that you need a lower price they will go for a lower price. In the long term they will have robust demand. The blue side of the fact of the factsight that the demand, they think you will see it forever. We do not believe that. Emerging markets are at the point where their consumption is 7,000 per capita and that is where i can see take off. 7 70 Million People a year are moving. In the immediate things are going to turn around but for now they are facing an imbalance in the need to slow down supply too rigid and they need to slow down the supply and rejuvenate demand. That is the priority, understanding the market and balances and adjusting prices and a way that makes sense for the longerterm robustness. Derry, very quickly, how does this affect your business . Does it make you more busy . History of our business is that we do well during up cycles and down cycles. So we just keep doing comprehensive analysis and looking to continue to grow our business with the Financial Community particularly. We are the industry experts. We are retained by some a 500 companies and governments for expertise. We work with the energy industry, oil and gas co,al, emissions. We bring a holistic approach because we look at all of these markets to help us understand what is happening in each of these individual markets. We are looking to grow our business and we think this is a great environment for us because people are hungry for knowledge. And we are there to provide them insight. Gary, thanks a lot for that. Breaking news this morning, the Hong Kongshanghai connect, the exchange. There is a Readiness Test on november the 15th, two before things get going good and proper.
