Ideas
Anthony Stevens Bloomberg Market Producer 9:43
Gold targets 4000 after DMA break.
Gold is forming a bearish pattern with lower lows and lower highs, breaking technical support, and investors should not buy the dip in the near term, though the long-term bullish case remains intact.
Anthony Stevens Bloomberg Market Producer 10:13
Buy SK Hynix and TSMC for quality.
During the tech selloff, investors are gravitating to quality AI hardware with strong cash flow, specifically rushing back into memory names like SK Hynix and TSMC, while avoiding speculative AI with dreamlike valuations.
Jing Sima Chief Investment Strategist, BCA Research 27:25
Avoid MSCI China on weak consumption.
Downgraded Chinese offshore equities due to heavy weight of consumer-facing e-commerce, no meaningful policy support for consumption, and weak consumer fundamentals; maintaining the underweight call.
Jing Sima Chief Investment Strategist, BCA Research 29:38
Avoid Chinese AI; no monetization yet.
Chinese AI companies are still emerging, lacking monetization and profitability compared to Korean, Taiwanese and US peers, and the global AI CapEx cycle may moderate, making them less attractive.
Jing Sima Chief Investment Strategist, BCA Research 32:05
Buy China onshore infrastructure stocks.
Shifting away from AI darlings into infrastructure-related stocks, raw materials, and industrials, expecting a step-up in infrastructure investment in the second half.
Jing Sima Chief Investment Strategist, BCA Research 33:21
Buy China onshore for lower volatility.
Onshore China markets offer lower volatility and a stable RMB, making them a good hedge for global investors during risk-averse periods.
Thu Ha Chow Head of Content, The Block 51:24
Buy 2-5 year US Treasuries.
The short end of the US curve has peaked with no rate hikes expected soon, so she is constructive on the 2-5 year part of the Treasury curve.
Thu Ha Chow Head of Content, The Block 53:22
Watch Indonesia bonds for turnaround.
Indonesia is beginning to show signs of a turnaround as policymakers address confidence issues, but is not yet fully convincing, so the market is being watched for further improvement.
Yvonne Man Head of APAC, CoinDesk 85:24
Watch soft commodities on El Nino risk.
El Nino has officially formed and historically reduces yields of soft commodities like palm oil, coffee, cocoa, cotton, wheat and rice, potentially adding to inflationary pressures and raising prices.
