WSJ這篇新加坡出的稿被不救派認為是證明:

[ The officials characterized the actions being ordered as “getting ready for the possible storm,” saying that local-level government agencies and state-owned enterprises have been instructed to step in to handle the aftermath only at the last minute should Evergrande fail to manage its affairs in an orderly fashion. ]

汪浩簡單點出恆大債務危機之所以是系統性風險而非單一企業或產業問題的成因:

「中國房地產是中國經濟支柱產業,穩增長必備:拉動GDP三成,貢獻財政四成,創造信用五成,是中國經濟內循環的核心動力。房地產的問題,絕不只是來自房地產,而是中國經濟增長模式、貨幣發行模式、信用創造模式、財政運行模式、國家和社會治理模式等種種問題的集中表現。 隨著人口懸崖和債務大爆發,房地產不斷的金融化,成為債務密集度畸高的行業。從拿地到開發,基本上都是依靠債務--房企開發貸+居民按揭貸。

中國的債務型經濟增長模式,經過金融深化與金融自由化,已經具備所有金融危機的動因。 中國房地產的高槓桿屬性,銀行放貸失控火上澆油,房價上漲抵押物升值會進一步助推銀行加大放貸,甚至主動說服客戶抵押貸、放槓桿。在世界歷史上,歷次房地產泡沫中銀行業都深陷其中,房地產危機既是金融危機也是經濟危機。」

這篇認為當中國政府意識到投資效益低下後試圖用提高內需拉抬效益, 當投資集中於房市開始過熱後又嘗試以三條紅線等政策降溫, 於是地產開發商龍頭就這麼卡住了:

"Since 2008, it has needed ever more debt to deliver the same increment to economic output. Between 2008 and 2019, total debt—government, household and business—rose from 169% to 306% of gross domestic product, but GDP growth fell from 10% to 6%. Productivity growth adjusted for the expanding stock of buildings, machinery and other capital was 2.6% a year from 2000 to 2010. It has been negative since 2015, a sign of how inefficient much of that investment has been.

A few years ago Beijing recognized this model was unsustainable and has sought in fits and starts to shift to “higher quality” growth more dependent on consumers. That process was bound to be disruptive; indeed, it triggered a disorderly devaluation of the yuan in 2015, but it did succeed in slowing the buildup of debt.

Last year, to tide the economy through the pandemic, credit was loosened again. Yet Chinese officials see soaring housing prices as a threat to financial and social stability so they laid out a three-year timetable for lending to the red-hot property sector to be reined in. Just as the Federal Reserve’s interest-rate increases eventually popped the U.S. housing bubble over a decade ago, those regulatory restrictions, with a lag, popped China’s, said Gene Ma, head of China research at the Institute for International Finance. Evergrande was an early casualty since it is one of the most leveraged developers, he said."

等著看金融業者能雙邊失血支援多久。

"花旗集團估計,至今年底,中國銀行系統約41%資產直接或間接與房地產有關,房價走跌恐引發銀行資產的連鎖反應。中國銀行提供給開發商及購屋者的未償付貸款估計達50兆人民幣(215.27兆台幣)。"

"知情人士披露,官員要求銀行不可全面切斷對開發商的融資,應持續對營建中的計畫提供支持,並批准購買預售屋者的抵押貸款。"

WSJ這篇用圖表具體指出中國房市泡沫與恆大事件的規模: 前者是美國2005年房市泡沫的翻倍($847 billion v. $1.6 trillion), 後者的開發項目樓地板面積總和約相當於513棟帝國大廈.

"Analysts have generally indicated an Evergrande default wouldn’t spur a crisis of confidence like the one that followed the Lehman Brothers collapse. But Evergrande is the largest property developer in a Chinese real-estate bubble that has been expanding for years. Investment over the past decade in China’s residential-property market has dwarfed the U.S. housing bubble of the 2000s, at least in terms of its share of domestic economic output."

中國房市的危機點: 大城市以外的房地產仰賴泡沫支撐.

"But property construction in smaller cities ran well ahead of demand from prospective occupants for the last five years in China, leaving the market increasingly dependent on speculators and investors to buy properties, said Logan Wright, China markets research director at Rhodium Group, a research firm based in New York. About 21% of homes in urban China were already vacant in 2017, which equated to 65 million empty units, according to data from China Household Finance Survey."

不知道野村的預估是否包含影子銀行部位。

「野村預估,截至今年6月,中國開發商的債務已達5.2兆美元(約新台幣147.1兆)。最高比例為銀行貸款佔46%,債券市場則大約佔10%,包括相當於 2170億美元(約新台幣6.1兆)的美元債券,其中許多是垃圾債券。」

看樣子應該是有包括在內。

“The real-estate giants have borrowed not only from banks but also from shadow-banking outfits known as trust companies and from individuals who put their savings into investments called wealth-management products. Abroad, they became a mainstay of international junk-bond markets, offering juicy yields to get deals done.”

wsj.com/articles/beyond-evergr

趙君朔這集把最近的恆大危機連帶影響整理得很詳細:

youtu.be/GD2xrNTtxjw

中國開發商危機名單新增佳兆業集團:

"Kaisa’s tumble takes its shares’ year-to-date losses to nearly 73% amid growing investor concerns about Chinese developers’ ability to refinance or repay billions of dollars in debt. Fitch and S&P Global Ratings both downgraded the already junk-rated Kaisa in October to CCC-plus, near the bottom of their ratings scales, citing refinancing risk."

wsj.com/articles/chinese-devel

驚訝聯準會發這個示警:

「有鑒於中國經濟與金融系統的規模,以及其與世界其餘地方的廣大貿易連結,在風險情緒惡化之下,中國的金融壓力可能會讓全球金融市場感到緊張,對全球經濟成長構成風險,進而影響美國。」

cna.com.tw/news/aopl/202111090

報告只有85頁, 恆大部分在第65頁:

"Stresses in China’s real estate sector could strain the Chinese financial system, with
possible spillovers to the United States

In China, business and local government debt remain large; the financial sector’s leverage is
high, especially at small and medium-sized banks; and real estate valuations are stretched. In
this environment, the ongoing regulatory focus on leveraged institutions has the potential to
stress some highly indebted corporations, especially in the real estate sector, as exemplified by
the recent concerns around China Evergrande Group. Stresses could, in turn, propagate to
the Chinese financial system through spillovers to financial firms, a sudden correction of real
estate prices, or a reduction in investor risk appetite. Given the size of China’s economy and
financial system as well as its extensive trade linkages with the rest of the world, financial
stresses in China could strain global financial markets through a deterioration of risk sentiment, pose risks to global economic growth, and affect the United States."

federalreserve.gov/publication

有些理解為何此時示警了:

"In total, Chinese junk borrowers have about $197 billion of dollar debt outstanding, Goldman Sachs analysts have estimated. That means the ICE BofA index covers a little more than half of that total debt, implying the full losses for investors are considerably larger."

"Including cash from bond interest payments, the index has generated a total return of minus 28% so far this year, putting it on course for its worst performance since 2008. But this year’s selloff is much bigger in dollar terms, affecting far more investors. The total face value of the ICE BofA Asian Dollar High Yield Corporate China Issuers Index was just $3.2 billion at the end of 2008."

wsj.com/articles/chinese-junk-

恆大的許家印還算肯負責的:

"報導指出,恆大在過去3天內總共出售了在香港上市的恆騰網絡集團有限公司約5.7%的股份,總計籌集約1.45億美元資金。上個月,恆大傳出出售兩架私人飛機,套現5000多萬美元。

在此之前,恆大於9月間出售了盛京銀行17.5億股的股份,取得99.93億元資金;恆大創辦人許家印日前傳出,已賣掉香港豪宅,用以償還已到期的債務。"

cna.com.tw/news/acn/2021110900

苟延殘喘到十二月終於正式開爆:

"當恆大公告無法履行一筆2.6億美元(約台幣73億)債務後,無疑開啟債務違約大門,廣東省人民政府約談許家印後,隨即宣布派出工作組進駐恆大摸底。不到半小時,央行、銀保監會、證監會、住建部等部門都發表立場,支持廣東省政府。"

ec.ltn.com.tw/article/breaking

外界比較像把人行這波操作看作示警而非救火:

"The central bank’s move, which came sooner than some economists expected, signals growing concern about an economy that is losing momentum, particularly because of the weakening property market, which accounts for about a quarter of China’s economic activities. Sales by China’s top 100 developers dropped for the fifth straight month in November, shedding 37.6% in value from a year earlier, according to China Real Estate Information Corp."

wsj.com/articles/chinas-centra

趙君朔也在昨天提到了人行調降存款準備率的不妙:

youtu.be/e2KngbtgTUE

有些驚訝人行這麼快連兩波操作, 看來底層經濟情況確實不太妙?

"中國金融業界分析,人行下調支農、支小再貸款利率,將有助於降低中國中小銀行的資金成本、引導這些中小銀行降低「三農(農業、農村和農民)」和小微企業貸款利率;此外,人行希望在保持貨幣總量適度寬鬆情況下,透過結構性工具,針對性支持實體經濟。"

"根據中國人行網站公告,這次降準共計釋放長期資金約1.2兆元人民幣(約5.2兆台幣),金融機構加權平均存款準備金率將由8.9%降至8.4%;其「穩健」貨幣政策取向沒有改變,釋放的一部分資金將被金融機構用於歸還到期的中期借貸便利(MLF),還有一部分被金融機構用於補充長期資金。

瑞銀經濟學家汪濤等人報告指出,中共中央政治局政策基調的調整明確表明,中國高層領導人認識到了「經濟下行壓力」,中國人行雖重申穩健貨幣政策立場,但此次降準實際上發出了「貨幣政策寬鬆」的明確信號。"

ec.ltn.com.tw/article/breaking

WSJ對之前人行降率放水的效果不甚看好:

[ Chinese leaders appear to realize that to implement additional painful reforms at this point risks cutting economic growth further—in a politically sensitive year when President Xi Jinping is widely expected to seek a third term in power. Thus, to ensure political stability, Chinese leaders are likely to put on hold new forms of tightening, as well as changes aimed at narrowing social inequalities.

“The chance for Beijing to launch new hawkish regulations is getting much less likely this year,” says Robin Xing, chief China economist at Morgan Stanley.

Many economists expect Beijing to set a growth target of at least 5% to help stabilize expectations ahead of the party congress, to be held sometime in the fall.]

wsj.com/articles/china-economy

現在介於「放怕逃、收怕死」之間的為難狀態:

"In face of downward economic pressure, China’s top economic planning agency, the National Development and Reform Commission, said Tuesday that Beijing is expediting the rollout of major infrastructure projects to counter uncertainties early in the year.

To some economists, the past two months’ rate cuts, while welcome, are still rather modest in scope when compared with the magnitude of the woes facing the economy.

In particular, the five-basis-point cut in the five-year loan prime rate was smaller than expected, a decision that economists at Citigroup said could reflect regulators’ reluctance to bail out the real-estate sector with more stimulus."

wsj.com/articles/china-cuts-be

趙君朔對廿大後的中國局勢預測:

“ (1)除了少數受惠於國家政策支持和補貼的部門,中共經濟會繼續下滑。(2)房地產部門的問題國家沒有要積極介入的跡象,這會讓偏遠省分賣地收入大幅下降的地方政府很快開始接連出問題。(3)要道開始出現小規模的財政和金融危機後,中央政府才會在不得以下介入救援,但在缺乏全面的強力方案下,這只是延緩了大規模社會和政治動盪爆發的時間點。(4)一旦經濟不見好轉,人民史無前例的開始勇敢出來抗議政府的劣政,習近平很可能靠對外挑起衝突甚至發動戰爭來替自己解圍,時間點在2024年中左右。”

WSJ也注意到國台辦人馬退出中常委的異常,不禁猜測起這次九合一選舉到底隔壁那些從國台辦到王岐山到維尼的暗樁各線會不會內鬥起來:

"In addition to the military promotions and party-charter amendment, China’s leadership excluded Liu Jieyi, director of China’s Taiwan Affairs Office, from the Communist Party’s new Central Committee lineup. Some analysts say that signaled a potential shift in Taiwan policy."

親中滅台黨立委擋國防武器關鍵預算實據:

"國民黨立委馬文君、江啟臣、吳斯懷以相關資訊不足,對實際的進度有疑問為由,針對「潛艦國造—第二階段原型艦籌建」編列的55億,提案凍結5億;

國民黨立委張育美也對「新一代輕型巡防艦—第二階段原型艦籌建」提案凍結7千萬元。

國民黨立委呂玉玲以軍種委託中科院預算編列與計畫案例不符頻傳為由,提案凍結「劍龍級潛艦戰鬥系統提升案」預算的20%。

樂山雷達挑起監測中共彈道飛彈的重任,國防部今年編列23億7千多萬元的維持費用,國民黨立委鄭正鈐和呂玉玲分別提案凍結10%預算。"

news.ltn.com.tw/news/politics/

輕型巡防艦防空型原型艦開工的同時,不要忘記國民黨不分區立委擋這個預算阻止台灣自衛能力:

"她指出,輕型巡防艦的噸位小、建造期程短,可以讓海軍在執行任務的時候,減少主戰艦的耗損,在兵力運用上也更具有彈性,未來輕型巡防艦將共同擔負起海上偵蒐、巡邏以及監控等任務,成為海軍水面艦艇的新戰力。"

新聞裡的夜間演練影片看到目瞪口呆...

"方陣快砲屬機砲彈鏈式的艦用近程防空系統,在我國的成功級巡防艦、紀德級驅逐艦、康定級巡防艦、沱江級巡邏艦等戰鬥艦艇都有配備,日前開工的輕型巡防艦也將其列為「標配」。由於是提供防空火力支援,國軍多將方陣快砲配置於艦尾直升機庫上方,也同時為S-70C反潛直升機提供防空火力支援。"

"後勤裝彈必須先在彈鏈尚未進彈艙前,將各彈藥的種類如曳光光、穿甲、高爆燒夷等,交錯配置排好;而在戰時這些前置作業基本上會預先做好,只需從彈藥箱中取出彈藥,整理、檢查即可輸送上彈。"

買美系軍武好處是升級潛力:

"對於新購13套丶送美性能提升8套,合計21套的方陣快砲案,軍方人士說,方陣快砲為我國艦艇、重要雷達站所屬近迫武器系統,運用雷達偵蒐敵方目標後,再藉由高射速機砲予以破壞。每分鐘射速高達4500發,射程可達1.5公里。

他並指出,BLOCK 1A與1B的差別,主要在於1B型增加了可見光/紅外線瞄準系統,可提升艦艇在遭到敵方攻船飛彈及其他飛彈攻擊時的反制作戰能力,及對其他空中目標與快艇等攻擊的反制戰力,以提升艦艇存活率。"

def.ltn.com.tw/article/breakin

海軍忙著添購與升級各類快砲:

"軍方官員今天指出,海軍是在112年度起,為海軍主戰艦艇現役的76型快砲進行性能升級計畫,加改裝STRALES型套件以及增購DART導引砲彈,可以有效擊殺來犯的次音速反艦飛彈,大幅提升艦艇防衛戰力。

76快砲加裝STRALES套件,是將現役76快砲系統加裝並更換無線電射頻導引系統以及配套的射控系統,再增購快速飛行可控制的導向砲彈(Driven Ammunition Reduced Time of flight,簡稱DART),讓艦砲可以有效執行對水面、地面射擊,以及接戰低空慢速目標丶次音速反艦飛彈等空中目標。"

國軍最好趁新國會上任前把該買的一次補足:

"新加坡「Rolls-Royce Solutions Asia Pte. Ltd.」原屬德國摩天宇(MTU)公司發動機子部門,該部門後於2014年由英國國防航太大廠勞斯萊斯(Rolls-Royce)收購,並更名為「勞斯萊斯動力系統」(Rolls-Royce Power System),而上述新加坡公司便為旗下亞洲地區的東南亞分部。

這家分公司同時提供軍、民用動力系統方案;軍用動力系統方面提供包含「MTU 20V 4000」型等柴油主機,此型號正是海軍「沱江級」巡邏艦搭載的動力主機,因而研判該案與沱江級艦後勤零附件相關。"

就等著看到時有多少馬文君呂玉玲之流在國會擋軍購作怪:

"台湾国安官员在选前的简报会上指出,新一届的立委在二月上任,在5月20日之前,蔡英文政府就要先面对新国会,北京也势必会延续现在的做法,加剧台湾朝野之间的对立,立法院就是最好发挥的舞台。

他说,中国是聚焦操作台湾国内议题矛盾,让蔡英文政府和接下来的赖清德政府都会面临到国内激烈冲突的环境。北京也会持续邀访他们所偏好的台湾政治人物,再伴随经济胁迫增加,扩大台湾工商团体的不安与不满。"

算起來這是諾魯第二次斷交:

"據了解,諾魯和我國於1980年5月4日建交,2002年7月21日諾魯改和中國建立邦交,到了2005年5月14日又和台灣復交,諾魯隨後於2007年3月27日在台北設立大使館。在亞定去年10月當選總統後,我駐諾魯大使林鼎翔第一時間代表政府向亞定致賀。"

宏都拉斯跟台灣斷交後被影響到的養蝦業失業人口就足有諾魯人口十分之一了, 所以這個斷交對台灣很不痛不癢:

"至於如何尋找新市場,阿馬多表示,另一個選擇是重新啟動2021年與韓國簽署的貿易協定,但韓國是美國盟友,可能出於地緣政治因素不想買,而宏都拉斯政府與中國站在一起。他悲嘆,「現在我們一無所獲」。"
