US sanctions on trade, technology, and financial market access have done little to dampen foreign investor enthusiasm for China. There has been a surge in foreign investment flows, both portfolio and direct, into China over the course of 2020: All of which begs the questions “why” and “how sustainable is this”?

Little speculative manias are bubbling up to the surface in the US markets. But while financial instability is growing in the United States as a result of aggressive monetary expansion, a collapse in the equities market does not appear imminent given tame inflation and ultra-low rates and yields.

The US Federal Reserve pumps out an endless stream of zero interest rate money to finance the Government’s deficit spending. The handouts make most American workers better off financially during the pandemic than before. Meanwhile, the stock market soars. Not bad for the worst pandemic in 100 years. What can possibly go wrong?

Outperformer from first news of successful vaccines. Emerging ASEAN has been one of the best performers among major global equity indices since the start of November. And that was likely due to the region’s high economic leverage to normalisation after the distribution of COVID-19 vaccines and its high trend GDP growth rates relative to other Emerging Market economies.

With US trade policy still in flux, markets are grappling to assess its immediate impact on credit profiles and spreads. In this context, Asia’s investment-grade (IG) dollar bonds appear well-positioned. Despite many regional economies running substantial current account surpluses with the US, companies issuing in the offshore USD bond market are typically less exposed to this trade dynamic. Analysts suggest the intensifying trade war could see 10-year US Treasury yields fall towards 3.5%, with US credit spreads likely to widen by the end of the year. While this would put pressure on Asian credit spreads, investors need not adopt an overly bearish outlook. The relatively high headline yields provide a useful buffer against mark-to-market volatility. According to HSBC estimates, Asia’s credit market would only face losses if headline yields rise above 6% by year-end, a scenario requiring both wider spreads and a sharp increase in Treasury yields — a combination unlikely unless the US experiences stagflation. If the decline of American exceptionalism persists, it will disproportionately affect US assets. On the other hand, Asia’s credit market benefits from several key advantages: shorter spread duration, robust regional investor demand, and a lower beta issuer profile compared to other emerging markets. These factors suggest that excess returns in Asia’s IG dollar bonds will likely continue to outperform their global peers.
