CHINA
CHINA: Chinese assets have largely shrugged off the October trade data, which
showed a slightly weaker trade balance driven by stronger than expected import
growth, although there was no material reduction in China's surplus with the US.
- The CSI300 saw a slight lift on the data but remains below the 55-dma which
comes in at 3258, while the HSI has failed to overcome its opening highs,
keeping the index below last Friday's high and the broader downtrend intact. 
- Rate markets are up on the day with 2-year rate swaps up 1.25bps at 2.8425%,
but bond yields are pushing lower. The 10-year has broken below 3.5%, currently
trading at a three-month low at 3.496% as the entire curve shifts lower. 
- USDCNH continues to trade in a steady fashion within yesterday's range,
currently at 6.9288.
