QUOTE(AVFAN @ Apr 11 2015, 05:51 PM) if bernama (dun forget the usual "optimism") has this to say, it's worth watching next week. They are smart.. UK property is a pretty good buy now. Office space is like 300gbp per person per month, and that's just table space. say they can fit about 40 people there, so we are talking about 12,000GBP a month. Subtract power and water and cleaning, and it's still a good long-term investment.rm closed 3.6685 yesterday. and what is it that we keep hearing this fund, that fund all taking money offshore and not show nice major local investments that bring good pay jobs and wealth right here, strengthen the rm? |

QUOTE Malaysia raising $2 billion as worst Asia currency saps reserves SINGAPORE/KUALA LUMPUR (Apr 14): Malaysia is tapping the U.S. dollar bond market for the first time in four years as it burns through foreign-exchange reserves defending Asia’s worst currency. ... Foreign reserves plunged to $105 billion at the end of March, a $25 billion drawdown from a year earlier and the steepest slide among Asia’s large economies during that period. Its currency has tumbled 15 percent since June as Brent crude fell about 50 percent, with the ringgit closing at its lowest since 2006 last month. “The sharp decline in foreign exchange reserves started close to December and it was a result of upward pressure in the dollar-ringgit exchange resulting from a sharp decline in oil prices,” said Rohit Arora, an Asia interest rates strategist at Barclays Plc in Singapore. “The central bank might have smoothened the exchange rate volatility, resulting in a decline in reserves.” ... Amid the political noise, foreign ownership of Malaysian local bonds dropped to the lowest since August 2013 in March, data compiled by Bloomberg show, placing further strain on the currency. The government will be hoping to woo back some of those buyers this week. “I suspect these deals are used to build reserves, but also to continue to meet the interests of investors worldwide,” Jonathan Lemco, a fixed-income money manager and principal at Vanguard Group Inc., the world’s biggest mutual-fund company, said in an April 9 e-mail. “They are opportunities to meet the sovereign’s borrowing needs at attractive rates.” http://www.theedgemarkets.com/my/article/m...y-saps-reserves This post has been edited by AVFAN: Apr 14 2015, 01:17 PM |

Forex interventn needs capitl, so BNM taps ths captal frm its forex hldings, causng the amt of holdings to drop. The lesser holdings we hav, it translates into the poorer we are on the world stage. Wth this low forex holdings, we cant even peg anymore because no more money to defend a peg.
Now turning to issuing bonds in USD to strengthn forx holdngs. I wonder wht will the bonds be rated as, and if there are really takers for the bonds. |
