Yeap. LOL.. it's nickname .. =P

so is Evergreen Fund, Ponzi 1.0, Ponzi 2.0, Titanic, Anitamui Fund

I have said this before and I will repeat it here again for benefit of newcomers:

Our KLCI is very unique. Foreign institutional buyers will "park" their funds here during times of uncertainties. When there are bull run opportunity else where for example the previous run was due to the "speculative" fed interest rate hike, the ran away to create alpha (excess market return) for their funds.

Now that the "news" is nothing but a dud, they come back here to park their money again to wait for another opportunity. They know that our KLCI will not drop a lot due to KLCI having big cushion i.e., Khazanah, PNB, LTH, LATM, KWSP etc...

KLCI it is a favourite R&R place for these foreign fund to recuperate and rest.

As a rout in Chinese stocks this year erased $5 trillion of value, investors fled for safety in the nation’s red-hot corporate bond market. They may have just moved from one bubble to another.

...

Yields on top-rated corporate notes due in five years have declined 79 basis points, or 0.79 percentage point, this year to 4.01 percent. The yield premium over similar-maturity government securities has dropped to 97 basis points, near the lowest since 2009.

By contrast, the yield on corporate notes globally has increased 26 basis points to 2.92 percent. Credit-default swaps on China’s sovereign debt jumped to a more than two-year high of 133 basis points in September and were last at 113 basis points.

...

For all the concerns about a bond rout, default levels in China have so far been remarkably low, thanks in part to government-orchestrated bailouts for troubled firms. Just four companies have defaulted on onshore bonds, including Shanghai Chaori Solar Energy Science & Technology Co., which became the first to renege on its debt in 2014.
