China funds to cut equity allocations in next three months
Print Edition
CHINESE fund managers will cut the proportion of their portfolios invested in stocks over the next three months, following July’s upward trend, as hopes for a quick economic recovery falter, a Reuters poll shows.
“China’s recovery is not at all stable. It is still possible that things will get worse, so market sentiment is volatile,” a fund manager based in south China said.
Chinese fund managers reduced their suggested equity allocation for the next three months to 77.2 percent from 81.9 percent a month earlier, according to a poll of nine China-based fund managers conducted last week.
Funds sharply increased their suggested bond allocation to 10.1 percent from 4.5 percent a month ago, while lowering their cash weightings to 12.7 percent from 13.6 percent in July.
Eight of the fund managers said their most serious short-term concern was the cooling of the domestic real estate market, which could have knock-on effects on the financial system and potentially cause a spike in bad debts.
Suggested allocations to financial services and real estate fell sharply, while consumer and electronic technology stocks were in favor.
