Fund Managers’ Monthly Report
April 2012
- Asian stock markets generally fell in March amid worries of a sharp economic slowdown in China. However, losses
were capped by hopes of continued quantitative easing in the U.S.
- Economic data were mixed. Anemic European demand hurt exports from China, Malaysia and Thailand, whereas
Korea, Singapore and Taiwan saw electronics shipments improve. Fourth-quarter gross domestic product (GDP)
growth moderated in Australia and Korea.
- Inflation in the region eased further, but persistently high oil prices threatened to reverse the trend. Most central
banks held interest rates unchanged, although India lowered lenders’ cash reserve ratio to improve liquidity.
- In portfolio-related news, two Sun Hung Kai Properties directors were arrested for alleged corruption. No further
details were provided, but the Hong Kong-based company said the arrests will not affect operations.
- There were no major changes to the portfolio in March.
