  • Chinese Photovoltaic Market and Industry Outlook (Part 1)
    IEEJ: April 2010 Chinese Photovoltaic Market and Industry Outlook (Part 1) Kan Sichao* Summary In China over the recent years, wind power, solar energy and other renewable energy sources have been expected to become not only promising tools against climate change but also a key economic growth driver. Particularly, growth of Chinese photovoltaic cell makers has attracted global attention. However, the Chinese government has been unable to provide sufficient support for them because of huge fiscal costs. China's PV market is still inactive. As PV costs are expected to decline substantially due to a silicon price fall in 2008, however, the Chinese PV market is projected to achieve dramatic growth. In early 2009, the Chinese government came up with measures to subsidize and promote PV. In December, it became clear that the country will revise its PV generation target for 2020 upward to 20 gigawatts. While giving positive considerations to the exploration of the domestic PV market and the development of relevant industries, the Chinese government has recognized the domestic industries’ technological capacity shortages, overheated investment and other problems and indicated a cautious attitude. Part 1 of this paper outlines China’s PV projects, focusing on the PV market and PV promotion measures. 1. Introduction On September 22, 2009, Chinese President Hu Jintao delivered an attention-attracting speech at the U.N. Climate Change Summit held at the U.N. Headquarters in New York. China would incorporate climate change measures into its economic and social development plan and take more effective measures for the promotion of renewable and nuclear energy, he said.

  • Cross-Listing A-Share and H-Share Stock Price Relationship Study: the Granger Causality Analysis Based on Establishment of Shanghai-Hong Kong Connect
    Cross-listing A-Share and H-Share Stock Price Relationship Study: The Granger Causality Analysis Based on Establishment of Shanghai-Hong Kong Connect by Siyao Fang An honors thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Science Business Honors Program NYU Shanghai May 2017 Professor Marti G. Subrahmanyam Professor Stephen Figlewski Professor Jiawei Zhang Faculty Advisers Thesis Adviser Abstract In this paper, we mainly focus on the informativeness and causality relationship detection based on the past historical data for those cross-listing companies have stocks both listed in Shanghai Stock Exchange and Hong Kong Stock Exchange. The paper applies Unit Root Test, Cointegration Test and Granger Causality Test to check whether long term stability exists between cross-listing companies’ A and H shares. The results shows that At a 95% critical level, 25 companies reject null hypothesis of H share does not Granger Cause A share; 18 companies reject null hypothesis of A share does not Granger Cause H share. Among them, 5 companies show both informativeness from H share and A share to the other. The relationship may work as the first step to find possible trading strategy between A share and H share. Acknowledgements To Professor Stephen Figlewski – thank you for all your help from the very beginning of my project to the ending of this honor program. I can’t have this project done without your kind suggestions on topic choosing, data process and test calibration. I’m truly appreciated the opportunity you provide and the time you spent with my callow research.

  • China Stock Market in a Global Perspective
    DOW JONES INDEXES SEPTEMBER 2002 CHINA STOCK MARKET IN A GLOBAL PERSPECTIVE Research Report by Executive Summary Sheldon Gao, PhD. China’s stock market has experienced amazing growth since establishing its two Senior Director, Dow Jones exchanges in 1990, although the growth has been uneven and irregular, and the Indexes market remains in the early stages of its development. This report seeks to identify 609-520-4114 the key characteristics of China’s market and how they combine to form the most [email protected] dynamic and intriguing developing market in the world. The current structure of China’s market is one of its key obstacles to further develop- ment. There are very few stocks that would fit the definition of “blue-chip” trad- ing on China’s mainland exchanges. Whereas most developed markets are domi- nated by a limited number of large-cap stocks, China’s market is cramped by a multitude of small-cap stocks. This feature allows for increased speculation and higher turnover for both investors and indexes, among other problems. A related matter is the reliance of China’s market on external expansion, that is, expansion through the issuance of new shares rather than the appreciation in value of existing stocks. Since these shares generally do not experience sustained growth, often because of market manipulation, they contribute to the dominance of smaller size stocks in China’s market. Ultimately, the current structure is a major obstacle to the creation of viable index-related products in China. Another issue is the fact that, despite the tremendous growth of the stock market, China’s companies are not operating at a high level of profitability.
