Oil downturn sparks equity selloff

Global equity markets slumped on Tuesday, denting the recent recovery in riskier assets as oil prices tumbled on signs that a proposed deal to freeze output by major producers was not on the horizon.

After gains of more than 5 percent on Monday, which had helped push a gauge of world equities up more than 1 percent, both Brent LCOc1 and U.S. crude CLc1 turned sharply lower after Saudi Oil Minister Ali Al-Naimi said he welcomed all sources of supply, while Iran was seen as unlikely to agree to an output cap.

The decline in crude weighed on both the energy .SPNY and financial .SPSY sectors on Wall Street. Concerns about bank exposure to the energy sector were highlighted by JP Morgan's (JPM.N) announcement that it will put aside an additional $500 million to cover potentially bad loans to energy companies.

Markets have been closely tethered to oil prices, which have been volatile based on the continually changing perceptions that an output deal could be reached.

"The markets are really worried that we are missing something here – that the global slowdown may be more significant than we are recognizing and that slowdown could be causing oil prices to drop," said Tracie McMillion, head of asset allocation at Wells Fargo Private Bank in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

U.S. crude futures settled down 4.6 percent at $31.87 a barrel and Brent LCOc1 settled 4.1 percent lower at $33.27 a barrel. The commodity had shown signs of stabilization above $30 a barrel recently on hopes a production freeze by major producers could be agreed upon.

The Dow Jones industrial average .DJI fell 188.88 points, or 1.14 percent, to 16,431.78, the S&P 500 .SPX lost 24.23 points, or 1.25 percent, to 1,921.27 and the Nasdaq Composite .IXIC dropped 67.02 points, or 1.47 percent, to 4,503.58.

European shares also moved lower on the crude weakness, along with and disappointing updates from Standard Chartered (STAN.L), down 6.7 percent, and BHP Billiton (BLT.L), down 6.1 percent. A weak sentiment reading of German manufacturers also raised concerns about the health of the region's largest economy.

Resources stocks .SXPP, down 3.2 percent, weighed heavily on European equity indices after the world's largest miner, BHP Billiton, posted its first loss in 16 years.

The pan-European FTSEurofirst 300 .FTEU3 index of leading shares closed down 1.3 percent. MSCI's index of world shares .MIWD00000PUS was lost 0.92 percent.

In currency markets, the British pound GBP= remained under pressure, and was down 2.7 percent on the past two sessions, its biggest two-day drop in six years, on worries Britain may leave the European Union. Sterling was last down 0.83 percent at 1.403.

The euro EUR= also fell to $1.0987 on Monday, its lowest in almost three weeks, on fears Brexit could undermine the European Union. It was last down 0.13 percent at $1.1012.

Investors' shift towards safer ground on Tuesday pushed the dollar lower against the yen, down 0.7 percent to 112.10 yen JPY= after hitting a low of 111.75.

The dollar's index against a basket of six major currencies .DXY was little changed, up 0.09 percent at 97.467

Benchmark 10-year U.S. Treasuries reversed earlier losses and were last up 8/32 in price to yield 1.7380 percent.

Iran, Indonesia discuss energy co-op

Iran's Petroleum Ministry and Indonesia's Energy and Natural Resources Ministry officials will confer on boosting energy cooperation on Tuesday, an official at the Indonesia's Energy and Natural Resources Ministry said.

According to the Beritasatu TV's website, Indonesia Energy and Natural Resources Ministry's Oil and Gas Director IGN Wiratmaja Puj said in a press conference that Iranian and Indonesian officials will discuss joint investment in fields of oil and gas in their two-day meeting.

According to IGN Wiratmaja Puj, several investors have expressed an interest to build fuel storage for Indonesia, including investors from Iran.

In the wake of lifting of anti- Iran sanctions, a big Singaporean economic-trade delegation consisted of 67 people from Singapore Business Federation is scheduled to come to Iran to negotiate on developing bilateral economic and trade relations.

Iranian Ambassador to Singapore Javad Ansari told IRNA on Tuesday that the delegation will be headed by the Chairman of Singapore Business Federation Teo Siong Seng and the Minister for Trade and Industry S. Iswaran.

He said that the Minister for Trade and Industry of Singapore will meet Iran's Minister of Economic Affairs and Finance Ali Tayeb Nia to negotiate and sign investment encouragement and protection agreements.

He said that Iswaran will also meet Iran's Minister of Industry, Mine and Trade, Mohammad Reza Nematzade and will participate in meetings with businessmen.

Ansari said that these companies will negotiate on IT, building hotels, transportation, pharmaceutical industry and other capacities.

The Singapore Business Federation (SBF) is the apex business chamber championing the interests of the Singapore business community in the areas of trade, investment and industrial relations. It represents 22,500 companies, as well as key local and foreign business chambers.

In July 2001, the Minister for Trade and Industry introduced a Bill in Parliament to establish the SBF Act, which was passed by Parliament and became law on 5 Oct 2001.

The Federation was then established on 1 April 2002, with the aim of representing the business community’s interests both locally and overseas. Under the SBF Act, all Singapore-registered companies with share capital of S$0.5 million and above are members of SBF.

Wishful thinking: Rumoured G20 deal to stabilise currency, like the 1985 Plaza Accord, is ‘just fantasy’, says China’s finance minister

It is wishful thinking to expect a deal addressing currency volatility – like the 1985 Plaza Accord – to be struck at next week’s G20 meeting in Shanghai, says China’s finance minister Lou Jiwei.

“That’s just the media’s fantasy,” Lou said on the sidelines of the Chinese 50 Economists Forum in Beijing on Friday. “That proposal doesn’t even exist.”

Lou was responding at the annual forum to questions about whether members of the G20 might reach an inter-government agreement to jointly intervene in the foreign exchange market.

The forum is a top Chinese economics club whose members include Lou, Liu He, President Xi Jinping’s right-hand man in economic policymaking; central bank governor Zhou Xiaochuan, central bank deputy governor Yi Gang, as well as renowned economist Wu Jinglian.

Asked whether a one-off yuan revaluation would be on the agenda at the meeting of finance ministers and central bankers from the Group of Twenty major economies in Shanghai next week, Lou said: “No, no, no.”

Lou’s comments came on the back of analysts’ –including Bank of America Merrill Lynch chief investment strategist Michael Hartnett’s – speculation that the world’s top economic decision-makers would seize the chance to strike a deal similar to the Plaza Accord.

The accord is an agreement between France, West Germany, Japan, the United States and Britain in 1985 that allowed the US dollar to weaken significantly through joint intervention in currency markets.


Some economists, including Yu Yongding, a former People’s Bank of China adviser, are arguing for a one-off revaluation of yuan.

But many other analysts see the deal and a one-off revaluation as implausible.[/color][/size][/b]

“It’s certainly not appropriate for policymakers to discuss what level the exchange rate should be at,” said Guan Tao, a former official with the State Administration of Foreign Exchange. “Nobody can tell where the right level should be.”

Guan said while there was a general sentiment that finance ministries and central banks around the world should improve policy coordination, they lacked specific proposals to act on.

State Council adviser Xia Bin said it was “very unlikely” for the G20 gathering to result in any concrete action plan.
