Smart Money is Fleeing China - Don't Be Left Holding the Bag

Dear Subscriber,
Boris & Kathy
It’s been nearly two decades now, but some of you may still remember the “Asian contagion” of 1997 that wreaked havoc in the fastest growing region of the world and left some economies like Thailand permanently hobbled by the exit of hot money. Indeed the words “Thai baht” became shorthand for the dangers of investing in emerging markets and took out Victor Niederhoffer one of the most legendary hedge fund managers of all time permanently out of business.
So why concern ourselves with events that are nearly twenty years old? Because market history has a nasty habit of repeating itself and this time the damage may be far, far worse.
This year started with rumblings in the Chinese equity market caused by weakening of the Chinese yuan. But despite a couple of days of panic selling, few investors truly appreciate the danger that lies ahead. According to JPMorgan economist Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou, a stunning $930 billion of capital fled China over the past six quarters and his data doesn’t even account for the end of last year. That means that a cool one trillion dollars have evaporated from Chinese balance sheets in basically just one year.
Smart money is fleeing China at unprecedented rate as some of the wealthiest Chinese businessmen continue to “disappear”. According to South China Morning Post, “Xu Xiang, an aggressive private fund manager regarded as China’s George Soros, was arrested last month for alleged insider trading, while six of the top eight executives at CITIC Securities, a brokerage house aiming to become China’s version of Goldman Sachs, are being held for questioning over possible wrongdoing.”
As we told CNBC just a few days ago, the party is over. The chickens are coming home to roost. The junkets to Macao, the rampant corruption in the real estate sector, the ghost cities, the massive bank loans to essentially bankrupt and non-competitive state owned enterprises are all finally starting to crack up under a mountain of unproductive and unsustainable debt.
While the conventional wisdom worried about the “strength of the yuan” and the fact that China was manipulating its currency lower, we warned as early as the middle of 2014, that the country was a paper tiger, noting that if the going was so good at home why were the Chinese buying up all the real estate in New York and Vancouver?
Now investors are making the same complacent mistake, thinking that this is “just a bump in the road” when in fact it’s a gaping crater that is going to swallow up a lot of naive Western capital as the situation in China goes from bad to worse.
