Free AccessMNI China Press Digest May 8: 2nd Trade Talk, Yuan, REITS
BEIJING (MNI) - The following lists highlights from the Chinese press for
Tuesday:
Liu He, the Chinese vice premier, will visit Washington next week, though
other details have not yet been confirmed, Caixin reported, citing the White
House. Liu will meet with U.S. trade representatives and officials for another
round of negotiations on trade, according to White House spokeswoman Sarah
Sanders, Caixin said.
***Comments: Liu's visit to the U.S. comes earlier than some expected, shortly
after the U.S. delegation came to Beijing for trade talks with Chinese
officials. The two sides' willingness to negotiate has soothed the markets in
recent days, though they continue to diverge on major concerns such as trade
deficit and intellectual property protection issues.
The yuan against the dollar is expected to fluctuate both ways, Securities
Times said in a front-page commentary. Though the dollar has been strengthening
for more than ten days, CNY indexes - which reflect the yuan's value against ten
major currencies - have been rising since mid-April, the commentary said. In the
short term, the foreign exchange settlements are not expected to help with the
depreciation of the yuan, the newspaper said. In the medium term, the Chinese
government is expected to not devalue the yuan as its foreign reserves of
CNY3.125 trillion are sufficient to stabilize the yuan exchange rate; while
capital flight has been restricted, and thus would not cause large fluctuations
in the yuan, the newspaper said.
China's long-awaited public real estate investment trust (REITS) will be
launched this year or next year, China Securities Journal reported. The basic
framework is likely to be fixed-asset security funds and asset-backed
securities, the newspaper said, citing unidentified market participants. As the
Chinese government is campaigning to deleverage and develop its rental housing
market, securitization of rental housing assets will advance, the newspaper
said.
***Comments: The launch of public REITS in the near future could open up a large
investment market for Chinese citizens as it allows them to invest in the
property sector outside of simply buying houses. The move is expected to cool
down the frenzy of buying houses for speculation and investment in China, thus
reining in a potential property bubble.
