REVIEW OF SCHOLARSHIP
THURSDAY, Sept. 16, 2010
(1) SUMMARY OF THE SCENARIO:
Asian markets closed mostly lower, while Japanese exporters continue to benefit from a weaker yen after the Japanese authorities intervene in the currency market.
JAPAN: Japanese shares closed lower, despite the depreciation of the yen against the U.S. dollar, which favored exporters such as automakers, but was pressured by oil producers, steel companies and banks. The fall in Tokyo came amid weak Asian markets.
CHINA: Shanghai Stocks closed lower. Banking stocks depreciated against the concerns about the possibility of a rise in interest rates by the Bank of China, but decreased the losses in the late afternoon after the China Banking Regulatory Commission announced that it had no plans to raise rates, but take cautious measures to protect banks against systemic risk.
EUROPE: European stock market opened set adrift on Thursday, with shares of mining companies and automakers among the biggest casualties. Press positively German conglomerate Siemens, which received positive evaluation by Morgan Stanley and oil giant BP, helped by the recent rise of oil. British retail sales fell 0.5% in August. In comparing August sales last year rose 0.4%. Economists predicted a monthly increase of 0.3% and 2% annually. The euro zone recorded a surplus of 6.7 billion euros with the rest of the world in July, up from a revised surplus of 2.2 billion in June. Exports cairan 0.6% in June, while imports fell 1.5%.
