Fund Managers’ Monthly Report
March 2013
- The MSCI Golden Dragon Index fell in February in a holiday-shortened month and was among the main laggards in the Asia-Pacific region. Increased policy risks from non-bank credit growth and property measures led to profit-taking.
- China’s manufacturing activity expanded at a slower pace in February from the previous month.
- In Fund-related news, PetroChina acquired a 20% stake in a ConocoPhillips project and a 29% stake in the Goldwyer shale project in Australia, which should lift reserves and boost the company’s expertise in unconventional energy. China Resources Enterprise bought seven breweries from Kingway for 5.4 billion yuan (roughly US$868 million), which will augment its domestic market share. Oil company CNOOC received regulatory approval for both its acquisition of Nexen, as well as the resumption of operations at its Penglai oilfield, which should boost output.
- In February, we continued to make various transactions to align the fund with the portfolio construction model. Read more
