Stronger efforts necessary to stabilize growth
China’s October economic data stabilized but remained under pressure. We believe growth stabilization policies are necessary to sustain a stable economic recovery. The weak economic data in October came as expected as PMI has been below the 50 threshold

Stronger efforts necessary to stabilize growth China&rsquo;s October economic data stabilized but remained under pressure. We believe growth stabilization policies are necessary to sustain a stable economic recovery. The weak economic data in October came as expected as PMI has been below the 50 threshold for two consecutive months, the production restrictions and power cuts continued to affect the economy, and the pandemic continued to inflict damage on some regions. Industrial added-value and retail sales of consumer goods remained low. Fixed asset investment (FAI) and unemployment rate were flat MoM, and property-related indicators (land acquisition, housing starts, construction, completion and sales) continued to drop in October, indicating the economy remained under pressure in October. The NBS pointed out that more efforts are needed to sustain a stable economic recovery. We believe further growth stabilization measures are necessary to improve the macroeconomic environment. Guo Lei - Nov 17, 2021
Our take on targeted re-lending for clean and efficient coal use Targeted re-lending for clean and efficient coal use should have a limited impact on liquidity, and signals policy focus on the national drive for carbon neutrality and carbon peaking. China will establish a targeted re-lending tool worth Rmb200bn to support clean and efficient coal use on top of the financial instruments introduced earlier to reduce carbon emissions, a State Council executive meeting announced on November 17. The structural vehicle will become another pillar employed by the PBoC to promote green and low-carbon development. Compared with carbon reduction instruments, the re-lending prioritizes efficiency improvement in the utilization of traditional energy. It should have a limited impact on total credit issuance and money supply, but its significance lies in: (1) The policy focus on carbon neutrality and carbon peaking. We estimate investment in the fields related to carbon neutrality and carbon peaking will be at the center of &ldquo;new infrastructure&rdquo; investment amid potential growth stabilization measures. (2) Its signal of future industry policy direction, which involves developing clean energy, establishing a carbon emission trading system and improving efficiency in energy-intensive industries. Guo Lei, Zhong Linnan - Nov 18, 2021
