Börsipäev 12. august

Eilne kauplemispäev näitas, et pullid hakkavad ära väsima ning suurem tõenäosus paari päeva perspektiivis on siiski allapoole liikuda. Tund aega enne USA turgude avanemist teatatakse juunikuu kaubandusbilansi numbrid, millelt oodatakse -$28.6 miljardi suurust defitsiiti, mis on sarnane veebruaris, märtsis, aprillis ja mais näidatud numbritele, kuid võrreldes aastataguse defitsiidiga on see siiski üle kahe korra väiksem ning võrreldav 2000. aasta paiku näidatud defitsiidi numbritega.

Nagu kolmapäevale ikka kohane, tuleb naftavarude raport Eesti aja järgi kell 17.30 ning õhtul kell 21.15 avaldab Föderaalreserv oma intressimäära otsuse, kus seekord on põhirõhk veel kvantitatiivse lõdvendamise programmi jätkamisel/lõpetamisel.

Tänane artikkel Bloombergis ilmestab hästi pullide liigset enesekindlust järjepideva tõusu jätkumises ja lühikeste positsioonide omanike turust väljapressimist. S&P500 langusele panustamine vähenes juuli lõpu seisuga 12% võrreldes kahe varasema nädalaga. Link siin.

Euroopa turud alustavad päeva müügisurvega ning koos Euroopaga on korralikku miinusesse kukkunud ka USA. S&P500 futuurid eelturul -0.6% @ 987 punkti, mis on viimase kuue börsipäeva madalaim tase.
American International Group (AIG) avaldas täna pressiteate, et Hongkongi tütarettevõte AIG Finance müüakse China Construction Bankile kogusummas $70 miljonit + $557 miljoni eest makstakse tagasi võlgu.

Hiinas börsidel oli hommikul näha paanilist kasumivõttu- Hang Seng –2.8% & Shanghai Composite –4.7%. Kolmapäeval pöörati rohkem tähelepanu eile avaldatud laenuraha kasvu järsule vähenemisele juulis (+356 mld jüaani juulis vs +1.56 trln jüaani juunis), mistõttu peaks vähenema ka spekulatiivse raha vool aktsiaturgudele. Korralik kasumivõtt Hiinas ei tohiks väga suur üllatus olla, kuna turg on sellel aastal sirgjooneliselt üles sõitnud.

Tänase börsipäeva üks tähtsamaid majandusuudiseid kõlas Suurbritanniast, kus avaldati tööjõuraport. Teises kvartalis langes tööealiste kodanike tööhõive q-o-q baasil 0.9 protsendipunkti ehk 72.7%-le. Tööhõive langes 271,000 inimese võrra ehk 28.93-le miljonile. Töötusmäär kasvas teises kvartalis samuti 7.8%-le, mis oli kvartaalselt vaadatuna 0.7%-protsendipunktiline kasv.

Juuni eurotsooni tööstustoodang jäi selgelt ootustele alla:

Eurozone IP fell by 0.6% in June compared to an expectation for a 0.3% gain (thomsonreuters).

Nõrk tööstustoodang peaks mõju avaldama ka neljapäeval avaldatavale eurotsooni SKP numbrile. Reutersi andmetel oodatakse hetkel languseks 0.5%.

Mervyn Kingi pressikonverentsist ei ole samuti midagi positiivset kuulda. Bank of England esimehe sõnul võib majanduse ning tööturu stabiliseerumine kujuneda oodatust pikemaks. Samuti anti vihje selle kohta, et inflatsioonimäär jääb käesoleval aastal kõikide eelduste kohaselt allapoole varasemaid sihte. Tõepoolest, probleemidest anti märku ka nädala esimeses pooles, kui BoE otsustas suurendada nii-öelda "kvantitatiivse lõdvestamise" eelarvet. Tänane FEDi otsus kujuneb kahtlemata põnevaks!
Meisler RealMoney alt toob välja just selle, millest viimastel päevadel oleme rääkinud (pullide liigne usk tõusu jätkumisse, kõrge pettumuse võimalus jne):

"The Investors Intelligence readings for this past week show the most bulls since December 2007 and the fewest bears since October 17, 2007, which if you don't have a chart handy was exactly when the S&P made its high."

49.4% bulls, most since December 2007
21.3% bears, least since October 2007
Eesti majandusuudised on maailma mastaabis niivõrd olulise koha hõivanud, et Bloombergi reporterid on meist lausa eraldi loo kirjutanud. Artikli leiad siit. Oma versiooni on olukorrast teinud ka WSJ. Artikli leiad siit.
See Balti majanduste teema on välismaailmale justkui freakshow. Saab mõne raputava ning kollakahõngulise suure SKP langusnumbri leheveerele. Küllap siis loetakse, ikka põnevam kui tehnilisest analüüsist kirjutada.

Motiivid vast samad kui artiklis, kus kirjutatakse mitme nulliga seekord Zimbabwe inflatsioon tuli. Keskmise Bloombergi-lugeja seisukoht mõlemas küsimuses on aga ilmselt who da fuck cares?
The International Energy Agency Wednesday raised its forecast for this and next year's global oil demand, citing strong consumption from Asia especially China, the world's second-biggest oil consumer. In a monthly report, the energy adviser to 28 developed countries revised up this and next year's demand forecast by 190,000 barrels a day and 70,000 barrels a day, respectively. Despite the revision, this year's demand is still expected to be 2.7% lower than last year's, the IEA said. (marketwatch.com)
Äsja avaldati siis USA kaubandusbilanss, milles kajastus kaubandusdefitsiidi suurenemine $27.0 miljardile dollarile vs konsensuse oodatud -$28.7 miljardit. Toodete ja teenuste import kasvas $3.5 miljardi võrra ehk $152.8 miljardile. Eksport kerkis $2.4 miljardi võrra ehk $125.8 miljardile - märkides teist tõusukuud järjest.

USA eelturgudel on olnud tõsine Ameerika mägede sõit - 0.7%lisest langusest on turu alguseks taas tõustud nulli.

Good Character
By Rev Shark

Good character is more to be praised than outstanding talent. Most talents are, to some extent, a gift. Good character, by contrast, is not given to us. We have to build it, piece by piece -- by thought, choice, courage, and determination.
-- H. Jackson Brown

I like to view the market in terms of character. Good character can take a while to develop, but once it is developed isn't quickly or immediately lost. A market with good character can be expected to have a few stumbles here and there, but it will overcome obstacles and will regroup and continue to act in a positive and promising matter. A market with good character deserves the benefit of the doubt.

If you stick with and trust a market with good character, it will treat you well, but the most dangerous time for a market player is when character starts to deteriorate. When bad habits start to develop, when the action become lazy and sloppy and when we become distrustful, it is important to take action.

While we always want to give some benefit of the doubt to a market that has been exhibiting good and strong character, we have to be prepared to draw a line at some point. No matter how well the market has acted, a point will come when behavior starts to shift and we need to be more careful.

Character is king in the market, and when it changes, we need to adjust.

So far this market continues to show superior positive character. We have slipped a little bit the last few days, but it hasn't been anything that we can't forgive, especially in view of how good the action has been for many weeks. Even the best markets are entitled to a few slips. In fact, they are better for them -- especially if they can recover with some gusto.

A lot of folks are watching for this market to start falling apart with some vigor, but we still have too much positive character at work. We have to watch for it to be chipped away, but this is a market that has done little wrong so far, and it is going to stand up much better than some folks think. That doesn't mean we shouldn't be ready to be more cautious, and we certainly need to make sure we are taking gains and keeping stops fairly tight, but this market still hasn't not done much wrong, and that is the sort of character that deserves respect.

Norra keskpank jättis intressimäärad samale tasemele ehk 1.25% peale, kuid nentis, et on võib-olla sunnitud intressimäärasid kergitama oodatust varem. Keskpankurid tunnevad, et on aeg tasapisi intressimäärade kotisuud taas koomale tõmbama hakata. Praegu küll päris sidumiseks veel ei lähe, kuid piltlikult öeldes on mees juba poodi nööri järele saadetud...

Alates tänasest on NYSE'l ka üks uus aktsia juures - Emdeon (EM) viis läbi eduka IPO, kus turule tulemise hinnaks oli prognoositud vahemiku $13.5-$15.5 ülemine äär ehk $15.5. Järelturul on aktsia kauplemas ca $18 juures. Emdeon pakub tervishoiusektorile erinevat tarkvara ja teenuseid.

Emdeon (EM), which provides billing software to the healthcare industry, prices its IPO at $15.50, at the high end of its expected range of $13.50-15.50. The total offering of 23.7 mln shares includes about 10.7 mln from Emdeon and just under 13 mln from current stockholders. The company offers products and services designed to simplify and streamline healthcare billing for insurance companies, healthcare systems, and doctors. Emdeon's software links health care providers with private and public insurers, such as Medicare and Medicaid. It also automates administrative functions for payer and provider customers throughout the patient encounter, including benefits verification, claims management, payment distribution, payment posting and patient billing/collection.

Emdeon reaches the largest number of payers, providers and pharmacies in the US. In 2008, the co processed 4 bln transactions, including one out of every two commercial healthcare claims delivered electronically. Its ubiquitous platform facilitates alignment with customers, thereby creating a significant opportunity to increase penetration and drive the adoption of new services. The co is profitable and posted 1H09 revenue of $444.4 mln, up 5% yr/yr, with 12% operating margin.

Vaadates turgu, mis esimese poole tunniga ilma kordagi tagasi vaatamata püstloodis üles sööstis ja vaadates dollari olulist nõrgenemist euro vastu, tekib vägisi küsimus, et ega keegi ei tea juba õhtul avaldatavaid Föderaalreservi edasisi samme ette... Poleks esimene kord, kui need andmed lekiksid. Ilma lekkimiseta oleks aktsiate hoidmine üle teadaande selgelt liiga riskantne.
