Benefiting from the weakening US dollar and strong demand in the Mainland of China, Hong Kong’s total exports regained double-digit growth over a year earlier in the third quarter of 2002. The seasonally adjusted unemployment rate also fell from its historical peak of 7.8% in July 2002 to 7.2% in December 2002. However, the domestic sector remained sluggish in both investment and consumer spending. The latest economic forecast suggests a 2% growth in real terms of GDP and a 3% decline in the Composite Consumer Price Index for 2002. The trading performance of the Hong Kong securities and futures markets further weakened during the year. Hang Seng Index fell 18.2% from the previous year to end at 9,321.29. The average daily turnover of the Main Board also declined to HK$6,474 million, 19.3% less than that in 2001.

  • "Thoroughly Reforming Them Towards a Healthy Heart Attitude"
    By Adrian Zenz - Version of this paper accepted for publication by the journal Central Asian Survey "Thoroughly Reforming Them Towards a Healthy Heart Attitude" - China's Political Re-Education Campaign in Xinjiang1 Adrian Zenz European School of Culture and Theology, Korntal Updated September 6, 2018 This is the accepted version of the article published by Central Asian Survey at https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/02634937.2018.1507997 Abstract Since spring 2017, the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region in China has witnessed the emergence of an unprecedented reeducation campaign. According to media and informant reports, untold thousands of Uyghurs and other Muslims have been and are being detained in clandestine political re-education facilities, with major implications for society, local economies and ethnic relations. Considering that the Chinese state is currently denying the very existence of these facilities, this paper investigates publicly available evidence from official sources, including government websites, media reports and other Chinese internet sources. First, it briefly charts the history and present context of political re-education. Second, it looks at the recent evolution of re-education in Xinjiang in the context of ‘de-extremification’ work. Finally, it evaluates detailed empirical evidence pertaining to the present re-education drive. With Xinjiang as the ‘core hub’ of the Belt and Road Initiative, Beijing appears determined to pursue a definitive solution to the Uyghur question. Since summer 2017, troubling reports emerged about large-scale internments of Muslims (Uyghurs, Kazakhs and Kyrgyz) in China's northwest Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (XUAR). By the end of the year, reports emerged that some ethnic minority townships had detained up to 10 percent of the entire population, and that in the Uyghur-dominated Kashgar Prefecture alone, numbers of interned persons had reached 120,000 (The Guardian, January 25, 2018).

  • Hsi Total Return Index Futures Hscei Total Return Index Futures
    HSI TOTAL RETURN INDEX FUTURES HSCEI TOTAL RETURN INDEX FUTURES September 2018 INTRODUCTION In stock investing, the return and risk profile for investors has two components: stock price appreciation and dividend. The conventional stock Index futures such as the Hang Seng Index (HSI) futures and Hang Seng China Enterprises Index (HSCEI) futures are risk management tools based on an index calculated from prices of constituent stocks only. The introduction of total return index (TRI) futures by Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited (HKEX) aims to meet the trading and risk management needs of investors who adopt a total return strategy. TRI futures are based on an index calculated by assuming the cash dividends of constituent stocks are re-invested into the index’s portfolio according to their respective market capitalisation weightings. The Hong Kong Futures Exchange Limited (HKFE) is offering four TRI futures contracts: • Hang Seng Index (Gross Total Return Index) Futures (HSIGTRI Futures) • Hang Seng Index (Net Total Return Index) Futures (HSINTRI Futures) • Hang Seng China Enterprises Index (Gross Total Return Index) Futures (HSCEIGTRI Futures) • Hang Seng China Enterprises Index (Net Total Return Index) Futures (HSCEINTRI Futures) USAGES OF TRIS Due to the unique nature of indexing, TRIs are widely used by fund managers, actuaries and financial advisers to measure their index-based performances in equity funds and pension funds, as price indexes fail to capture the dividend income of the equity funds over time. TRIs are commonly used as the underlying index of equity total return index swaps traded in the over-the-counter (OTC) market among banks, insurance companies and investment funds, which enable users to realise the economic benefits of ownership of shares – price appreciation and dividend return – without the cost of capital outlay and expense of the consequences of ownership, such as custodian arrangements and regular reconciliations.
