The Sierra Club announced that the Orlando City Commission unanimously approved a resolution mandating that the city run 100 percent on renewables by 2050. But as more cities announce these plants, are they backed up by staff and funding?

China Automobile Parts: “bad reputation”? (3)

http://ift.tt/eA8V8J
Things continue to worsen in regards to China Automobile Parts, PKF issued the following rather strong worded statement.

PKF retracted their 2015 audited accounts since the financial statements for FYE2015 do not give a true and accurate picture of the financial position of the company.

Unfortunately, appendix 1 and 2 (mentioned in the text) are not enclosed. That is a pity, they might provide details when things started to turn sour, and how bad things might be.

Audited accounts being retracted from a listed company might be a first in Malaysia, but definitely not for unlisted companies, 1MDB being a rather “famous” example of that.

Japanese Stocks: Themes and Tickers to Keep an Eye On

http://ift.tt/2p1QFvL

Japan’s Topix index has risen around 7% over the past six months in U.S. dollar terms, which isn’t too shabby given its in line with what the S&P500 has returned over the same period.

However, Japan was expected to be an outright leader among global stock markets this year because of the weaker yen. What has manifested instead is a shallower rally underpinned by better loan growth, higher wages, as well as improving global trade. Jefferies analyst Sean Darby notes:

It is perhaps surprising to learn that both the current account surplus to GDP increased (more saving in the economy) while the fiscal position actually tightened. Ironically, as the budget deficit narrowed, JGB issuance actually fell much to the chagrin of investors who expected Yield Curve Control (YCC) to have encouraged fiscal relaxation. Indeed, the BoJ has quietly commenced its tapering without necessarily making the front page of the financial news.

Perhaps the most surprising change is the fact that Japan is experiencing one of the fastest growing financial systems within the OECD helped by both the corporate and household sectors. Furthermore, while the ‘official wage’ data is ambiguous, the recent Teikoku Databank study shows a far more robust wage environment.

Darby is bullish on Japanese stocks and recommends that investors keep an eye on the following themes:

Theme 1: Better employment data. According to the Teikoku Databank survey, 51.2% of the companies anticipate wage improvement in FY 2017, an increase of 4.9% points from the previous survey in 2016. It is the first time it has exceeded 50% since the start of the survey, and it is a record-high. Details for wage improvement are an across-the-board pay increase. Good news for recruitment companies!

Theme 2: Export pricing and trade remains resilient: Global trade is finally turning around as inventories have been destocked to a limit at which companies have been forced to raise production. Moreover, global PMI manufacturing indices are still expanding. Emerging markets are particularly sensitive to trade and it is interesting to note that the y-y change in intra-EM exports has finally turned positive. Good news for cyclicals.

Theme 3: Bank financial asset growth is growing: M3 has finally started to follow M1. Loan growth is running at 2% y-y led by corporates and the household sector. Good news for the banks.

Darby has drawn up a list of 20 Japanese stocks that have seen the most generous revisions to earnings estimates over the past three months. The top three names on the list are tech components maker Hosiden Corp. (6804.JP), Japan Petroleum (1662.JP) and healthcare equipment and scientific equipment maker Jeol Ltd. (6951.JP).

The Topix trades at around 14.5 times forward earnings and 1.2 times book value against a 2.1% forward dividend yield and an 8.5% forward return on equity.
