Foreign capital represented by northward capital, especially configuration foreign capital, has continued to flow out of A-Shares recently, which undoubtedly attracted more attention from the market. Market views generally believe that the situation in Russia and Ukraine is the core variable that has disturbed the global market recently. Under the impact of risk aversion, capital outflows have occurred in global stocks, bonds and money market funds, further impacting emerging market assets.
In this regard, China International Capital Corporation Limited(601995) chief overseas strategy analyst Liu Gang said that the recent global liquidity tension is mainly due to two reasons: first, the price volatility of various assets has increased significantly due to the situation in Russia and Ukraine, and the sharp fluctuation of assets itself is the main reason for the local liquidity tension; Second, the risk exposure caused by the sanctions imposed on Russia by Europe, America and other countries, or the losses caused by the stripping of assets in Russia, will also cause the tension of foreign capital liquidity and counterparty credit in the short term.
Liu Gang stressed that from the perspective of fra-ois spread, repo market, commercial paper spread, credit spread, offshore dollar liquidity and the U.S. financial conditions index of the Chicago Fed, although there has been some tightening of global liquidity in the near future, it is still far from extreme situations (such as the 2008 International Financial Crisis) and will not expand into a global liquidity impact.
China Industrial Securities Co.Ltd(601377) chief strategist Zhang Qiyao said that in the short term, under the pressure of global risk appetite, the flow of foreign capital still faces fluctuations. However, in the medium and long term, under the background of large real interest rate difference between China and the United States, resilient RMB exchange rate, China’s sustained and stable fundamentals and investment environment, the inflow of foreign capital into A-Shares will still be a long-term trend.
It is worth noting that in the context of the sharp reduction of positions last week, the northbound funds did not sell indiscriminately, but increased positions in public utilities, national defense and military industry, architectural decoration and other industries against the trend China Industrial Securities Co.Ltd(601377) statistics show that since the beginning of this year, foreign capital has actively arranged the steady growth direction of banks and continued to sell traditional heavy positions such as consumption and medicine. As of March 11, this year, the northward capital mainly flows into banks, non-ferrous metals and power equipment industries, and mainly flows out of pharmaceutical and biological, food and beverage and household appliances industries.
