SHANGHAI, CHINA - MARCH 7, 2023 - The Oriental Pearl Tower, Shanghai Tower, Jinmao Tower and World Financial Center are seen on Lujiazui Street, Shanghai, China, March 7, 2023. China stocks will keep rising after markets in the mainland reopen following the Golden Week break, analysts predicted. Beijing's announcements of economic support last week have fueled China's CSI 300 blue-chip index to rally over 25% in a nine-day winning streak. Then, Hong Kong stocks dropped on Thursday, ending a 6-day winning streak and sparking fears that China's stimulus rally could have started to fizzle out. Beijing's recent stimulus blitz coupled with higher participation from retail investors will likely fuel a longer rally, he said.

☆ Time is ripe for another push on carbon pricing
▼ + stars: | 2023-10-24 | by ( Hugo Dixon | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +8 min

Other technologies, such as green hydrogen and carbon capture, are still a long way from maturity. Around 50 countries have some form of carbon price, double the number 10 years ago, and another 23 countries are planning to introduce one. The snag is that China’s carbon price is low and the United States doesn’t have a federal levy. Others argue that governments should combine carbon pricing with financial support for the most vulnerable and targeted subsidies for fledgling technologies. To hit climate targets, the carbon price would need to be $135 a tonne in advanced economies and $45 a tonne in large emerging ones by 2030.

Shanghai's city skyline as seen from observation deck at Shanghai Tower in China. The chairman of China Evergrande Group has been placed under police surveillance, Bloomberg News reported on Wednesday, raising more doubts about the embattled developer's future as it also grapples with mounting prospects of liquidation. Citing people with knowledge of the matter, the report said Hui Ka Yan, who founded Evergrande in 1996 in southern Guangzhou city, was taken away by police earlier this month and is being monitored at a designated location. Evergrande, the police department in Guangdong province, whose capital is Guangzhou, and the public security ministry did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment. Evergrande is the world's most indebted property developer and has been at the center of an unprecedented liquidity crisis in China's property sector, which accounts for roughly a quarter of the world's second-largest economy.

☆ Fixing China's property sector could take years — if not a decade, says economist
▼ + stars: | 2023-09-26 | by ( Lee Ying Shan | ) www.cnbc.com time to read: +2 min

watch nowChina's urbanization drive may be drawing to a close — and that could further hurt the already ailing property sector, according to China economist Hao Hong. "Fixing the property sector may be a multi-year or even a decade's work in front of us. China's property market has been embattled by faltering consumer confidence, as property giants Evergrande and Country Garden are mired in debt problems. Not having an overbearing Chinese property sector actually is good for the Chinese economy going forward. Hong noted that 18 trillion yuan ($2.46 trillion) worth of Chinese property were sold two years ago.

☆ China to see the world's biggest millionaire exodus this year, new study shows

Guests are seen in the J Hotel located in the Shanghai Tower, in Shanghai on June 23, 2021. China, with the world's second-largest economy and the second-highest population, will again see the biggest exodus of millionaires this year, according to new research. Data from the firm showed that a net 10,800 high-net-worth individuals migrated out of China in 2022, and another net 13,500 are expected to leave this year. This is not an issue that started with the coronavirus pandemic, and has been going on for the last 10 years. China's economy grew strongly from 2000 to 2017, but wealth and millionaire growth in the country has been negligible since then (when measured in U.S.-dollar terms)."

☆ China's disappointing rebound could bring in more stimulus, economists say

Photographer: Qilai Shen/Bloomberg via Getty Images Qilai Shen | Bloomberg | Getty ImagesChina's much-vaunted economic rebound after its emergence from strict zero-Covid lockdown measures has yet to fully materialize, prompting some economists to speculate that further fiscal stimulus or monetary policy easing could be coming down the pipeline. Data from China's Bureau of Statistics shows that 6 million of the 96 million 16 to 24-year-olds in the urban labor force are currently unemployed. watch nowIn a research note Monday, Capital Economics assessed that, despite losing some momentum, China's economic recovery was still progressing at the start of the second quarter, with scope for further service sector-led improvement. But we do not expect policy rate cut or major fiscal stimulus, barring a precipitous fall in exports in the coming months." Any consensus among economists as to the trajectory of fiscal and monetary policy seems to be unraveling in light of the tenuous recovery.

Rusia va construi a doua cea mai înaltă clădire din lume. În prezent, a doua cea mai înaltă clădire din lume este Shanghai Tower, cu 632 de metri. Turnul de la periferia Sankt Petersburgului se va numi Centrul Lahta II și a fost proiectat de biroul de arhitectură Kettle Collective. Viitorul zgârie-nori va fi ridicat pe malul Golfului Finlandei și va găzdui spații de birouri, dar și locuințe și spații de relaxare. Însă chiar dacă va fi ridicat rapid, Centrul Lahta II s-ar putea să nu rămână prea mult a doua cea mai înaltă clădire din lume.
