Hong Kong has confirmed it’s entered its first recession for a decade following six months of protests and unrest. The SAR’s economy contracted 3.2% in the third quarter compared with the second three months of the year, confirming earlier preliminary data. The government now expects the economy to shrink 1.3% for the full year, saying domestic demand worsened significantly in the last quarter, and consumption and investment fell. Financial Secretary Paul Chan said yesterday Hong Kong is in an extremely dangerous position and on the brink of its worst recession since the 1997 handover.
The unrest in Hong Kong, now into its sixth month, saw more violence over the weekend as protesters and police fought a pitched battle at the Polytechnic University. One officer was shot in the leg by an arrow and police warned they would use live ammunition if violence against officers continues.
Saudi Arabia’s state-owned oil giant Aramco has cut the valuation of its forthcoming IPO. It will sell 1.5% of its shares and seek US$25.6bn at the top end of the pricing range, potentially making it the world’s largest ever IPO, and valuing the company at up to US$1.7tn. It was looking for US$2 trillion.
On today’s Money Talk, we’re joined by Alex Wong of Ample Capital and Quentin Webb from The Wall Street Journal. Ben Cavender of the China Market Research Group provides the view from China.
