People’s Bank of China injects 502 bln yuan into bank sphere |
When it comes to the monetary policy issues, the People’s Bank of China spares no expense. Once it decided to stimulate the economy with a new tranche of money, surely enough it turned out to be a huge amount. The financial authorities injected 502 billion yuan which is equivalent to 74 billion US dollar into the bank sphere. Such actions prove that the bank is on its ways towards easing the monetary policy. A significant slowdown in economic growth prompted the bank to take a milder approach.
The cash was injected through giving credits to commercial banks. The People’s Bank of China provided one-year loans under the framework of medium-term lending facility which has become an indispensable tool for increasing the money supply in China. Remarkably, experts were surprised not by the volume of injections but by the fact that it has happened. The financial markets did not expect such a move under the present conditions. Usually, the Chinese central bank boosts liquidity by providing medium-term credits on the day of repayment of current loans. However, this time the policymakers did not wait and were one step ahead.
This decision enables banks to release nearly 700 billion yuans which is over 100 billion US dollars. Thus, the central bank’s actions will not only support the economy and lead to yuan’s depreciation but also they will avert corporate defaults and a crash on the stock exchange.

Oil bulls losing steam? |
Commodity experts do not rule out that the oil rally will inevitably come to an end sooner or later. Oil bulls are about to lose their optimism amid vague prospects. Despite recent efforts to halt a decline, oil prices are not able to bounce back to the levels, last seen more than 3 1/2 years ago.
The US has been ramping up production rates and increasing shipments of crude imports at a record pace. Such a robust activity of US drilling companies proves huge demand. Saudi Arabia foresees sharp contraction of crude oil inventories by the year end. These are benign fundamentals to encourage a further rally in the global oil market. However, it has not happened. Oil bulls made determined efforts to push prices to a four-year high, but this attempt was in vain. The steady advance was tempered by negative market sentiment. The pessimistic mood was triggered mainly by the US and Russia. The two top oil exporters have boosted domestic oil production. Recently, the US oil output has swollen to over 11 million barrels per day, thus having outpaced Russia. Russia is unwilling to take a back seat, but it has to restrain its oil output, complying with the OPEC production cuts deal.
Nevertheless, positive forecasts can cheer up energy investors. Some analysts say that from the technical viewpoint, the ongoing price move looks more like a downward correction than the overall bearish trend. Indeed, the market can tolerate a $10 drop on the back of the rapid oil rally for the most part of the year.

Russia sells off US Treasuries |
It seems that Russia has nearly run out of money. The useful sanctions, as the Russian media calls them, proved to be of little benefit to the economy and the political sphere. The economic growth is sluggish, the national currency is depreciating, and the budget deficit is widening. Even the latest pension reform will hardly eliminate this problem. So, the Russian government decided to sell off assets.
Russia has long been one of the world’s biggest holders of the US Treasuries, but recently it has lost this status. Remarkably, the treasuries do not bring high profits, but they are considered to be safe-haven assets. In other words, they are the perfect assets to keep money in. It is much safer than any bank, so governments, pension funds, and insurance companies prefer to put their money in the US Treasuries. When an owner sells such safe-haven assets, it means that the owner is short of money.
In March Russia was 16th in the list of the biggest holders of the US Treasuries. In April it sold a significant part of the American bonds and declined to the 22nd place. Nowadays, Russia is not even in the list of 33 biggest holders of the US Treasuries. Chile with 40 billion dollars in the US Treasuries is on the last place in this rating.

Increased market volatility associated with rising trade tensions, increased geopolitical risk and policy uncertainty as well as weaker corporate creditworthiness weighed on global financial conditions in the first half of 2018, Moody's Investors Service said in a report.
