Regulatory impact on wealth fees limited.

The recent regulatory scrutiny on cross-border flows from mainland China into Hong Kong bank accounts is causing a selloff in HSBC and Standard Chartered, but the impact on wealth management fees is likely limited because the existing client base generates the majority of fee income, and new account openings are incremental. Thus the selloff may be overdone.

Indonesia rupiah to weaken further.

The Indonesian rupiah is under significant pressure due to political uncertainty, growth concerns, and MSCI warnings, with options market pricing a 48% chance of dollar/rupiah reaching 19,000 by December and 20,000 within a year, indicating further weakness.

China property recovery supports developers.

The market has already priced in a 15-17% price increase from a recovery in 15-17 Chinese cities, but if the recovery broadens to 70 cities, there is potential for further valuation multiple expansion in Chinese property developers, supported by the government's urban renewal program of 4-5 trillion investment.
