Asian Market Voices

We probably don't need QE3,or more Federal Reserve asset purchases,in the view of Tim Riddell,Head of Global Markets Research at Australian bank ANZ.I expect a relatively positive end to the third quarter.
It's not over for Greece.They've got a lot of problems.
Mario Draghi has shifted the whole focus of the European Central Bank.He's really doing a good job.
The Shanghai market could be a big shifter into the next quarter.We could get a 10.5% rebound going into the next month or two.The downside risk is only 2-4%.The skew to me is,look to get involved.
I think China's home prices have bottomed,said Nicole Wong,Head of Real Property Research at CLSA.Today 92% of buyers are end users,as opposed to investors,versus 50-60% a few years ago.The supply is getting a little bit tight at this time.
The new governent will have to think about the next few years.A lot of the tightening will stay just a warning.Supply is plummeting and demand is quite stable.Those developers with positive cash flow will be in the best position.
Another rate cut will make money in the bank feel more and more painful.
CLSA stands for Credit Lyonnais Securities Asia.It claims to be Asia's leading and longest running independent brokerage and investment group.The Hong Kong-based firm offers investment banking,equity broking and asset management to global corporate and insitutional clients.Credit Agricole is their main shareholder.

Managing Director:Don't Bank On Banks

This decade is the worst decade for bank revenue since the Great Depression,in the view of Mike Mayo,Managing Director at Credit Agricole Securities.After a financial crisis,things don't go quickly back to normal.Be prepared to muddle through.A muddle through scenario beats alternatives like failed institution MF Global.
U.S. banks are picking up some loans from Euro banks.You can increase funds for lending,but you can't create borrowers.U.S. debt to GDP is 8 to 1-worse than Greece.We don't have enough proper auditors.Citigroup's have been in place since 1969.
You don't have proper accounting,which creates a crisis of confidence.Let's have auditors sign their names to be accountable.Let's have less regulation,but hold the top people accountable.
We're not having capitalism the way it's supposed to operate.I feel a lot more concern about capitalism when talking to Dick Parsons,Chairman of Citigroup.Just change the characters.Bank CEOs do more damage with ill-conceived incentives,Mike Mayo noted.
Mr.Mayo,a longtime banking analyst,is the author of "Exile On Wall Street."Credit Agricole S.A. is the largest full service bank in France.It ranks second in Europe and eighth in the world.
