02:20am, Friday, 03'rd Dec 2021 Zero Hedge
It''s Make-Or-Break Moment For Property Junk Bonds By Ye Xie, Bloomberg Markets live commentator and analyst Thursdays news of another missed bond payment by a Chinese developer reminded investors of the struggle homebuilders face, even as the worst of the regulatory tightening is behind. Debt issued by property developers, most of them junk-rated, may soon start to diverge -- with the strong credits swimming and the weaker ones sinking. In fact , an S&P Global study shows half the B-rated private developers wont survive a stress test in the worst-case scenario. Chinas government advisers are proposing a 2022 growth target thats lower than the 2021 one of above 6%, Reuters reported, adding that the new objective could be as low as 5% to 5.5%. While comments from senior leaders call for stabilizing house prices, they fall short of rolling back curbs. All point to a tight lid that will remain on housing markets and any relaxation or easing will be in a gradual, piecemeal manner. Moodys cut Chinas property sales forecast on Thursday and reiterated a negative outlook for the nations housing sector , blaming strict regulatory controls that will constrain onshore and offshore funding access and lead to defaults, declining sales and rising investor aversion. Contracted property sales are expected to fall 5%-10% in 2022 versus a prior projection range of flat to a 5% drop.

OPEC''s "Genius Move" Will Send Oil Much Higher As JPMorgan Sees Surge To $150 Many oil bulls were surprised by the anticlimatic decision of today''s OPEC+ meeting when, despite the recent plunge in the price of oil and the likely negative impact of the Omicron variant on oil demand in coming months, the cartel and assorted hangers on like Russia decided to maintain the current pace of oil output increases, raising production by 400Kb/d. Given the wall of worries that had crushed sentiment over the past week, this decision initially weighed on prices, with Brent trading as low as $66/bbl, the lowest price since August 23 before bouncing higher. Why the rebound? Well, according to Goldman''s in house commodity guru Damien Courvalin, the rebound in prices to $69/bbl, flat on the day, reflects several things, first that the OPEC meeting is still technically not concluded: while the press release stated the decision to hike, it specified that "the meeting remains in session", allowing for "immediate adjustment".
