China slowing not collapsing, shares look attractive
  • - The slowdown now underway in China should be seen as a normalisation of growth. It is unlikely to turn into a hard landing.
  • - China’s moves to prevent overheating and rebalance the economy have been successful, and tightening measures will start to be relaxed some time in the next two to three months.
  • - Chinese shares have been leading global shares lately and are worth keeping an eye on. Right now they are cheap and, with policy tightening largely over, may be in the process of bottoming ahead of a leg higher into year end. If this is the case it augurs well for Asian and Australian shares and for global shares generally on a six to 12 month view.
