KEYWORD: Macroeconomic Factors, Stock Market, Multiple Regressions I. INTRODUCTION The stock market plays an important and major role in the financial institutions in both developing and developed countries. The stock market deals all term of capital of the scheduled firm by funds pooling from investors and allowed them to business expand through offering investors for alternative investment possibilities to put the fund surplus. Stock market indexes this regards provided market performances historically. But it is possible for economies to ensure relation commitments in actual capital Rafiq et al., (2019) The macroeconomic variables have the diverse impact across the spectrum of economic. Therefore, the recently innovations in macro fundamentals are lacking of emerging market like china, pointed the improvement of stock performances in 2012. During the third quarter the market rebound the experience largely sorts due to depreciations of currency. However, the inflation due to the exchange and consumer price index by capital authority. Salamat et al., (2019) indicate that hypothetically the market must contain the related information and prices schedules that ease to public access information. Utilization of indexes to evaluate every determinations of the portfolio and delivers the indications forthcoming market tendency according to (Aggarwal and schrim, 1998). Basic of the modifications about the structure of macroeconomic policy and the significant role in finance reliability gaining could be subtle for the growth of country stock market. Exchange market assists the third one party of organized business and functions of transfer of shares from stockholders to investors as an essential part of open market. Mohsin et al., (2019) examined the calls of borrower for the Possess of parallel frames by the protest that will obligatory to compensate the full volume with the financial charges in coming. According to the APT (arbitrage price theory) introduce by (Rahee and Wang, 2009) that macro factors to discuss the specific stock return in the United States markets. When the productions comes in the risk premium, and variations are positively associated to the predictions of stock returns. Therefore, this research study is frequently examine the possible consequence of the variables eithers on the stock market development and understand to how the relations of investors help the capital and best country selections for investment and to increase their return and avoid the risk capital that face the investors in the pervious. It is clearly mentioning that diversification also decrease the risk premium. There is a large gap between the literatures that we are selecting the two different economies in the place of parallel portfolio. The GDP is regarded the most determined components of the stock performances which measure the real activities of economic growth Other side Naseem et al., (2020) the exceptional study to look the significant prospective gains of the relationship, especially in the portfolio preparing when the situations are the crises mood of economic. The cost of the stock prices is fixed of macro variables. The stock prices inverse influences by macroeconomic variables indicate the variations and stock market can expect the future condition of the economy, according to (Mukherjee and Nika, 1995). The Balance of trade or Balance of goods and services, are the difference between exports minus import. The association between Bot and stock prices has also deliberated, and several have inspected the changes of stock return sensitivity in the Balance of trade. The price-volume causality has an important effect on future market research because it is claim that prices changeability may touch the trade volume in the future by (Chappel, 1997). The Turkish emerging stock market and proposed the changes in price and trading volume are co- integrated examined by (Cook, 2007). Naseem et al., (2018) investigated six emerging markets of Latin America use monthly data indicate the volume of trade changes the stock prices. However, the Balance of trade 3495 ISSN- 2394-5125 VOL 7, ISSUE 18, 2020 has also influence the stock prices, with the increase in Balance of trade being inflation and leading to a reaction from the monetary authority through a high rate of interest, which causes to affect stock prices negatively Naseem et al., (2019), There are two primary channels exist which affect the real stock prices through the Balance of trade, namely wealth effect channel and some to extend, by the exchange rate channel. Rafiq et al., (2019), according to the wealth channel, the general fundamental logic is that when stock prices rise, specifically if it considers being perpetual, increases household income expected. Hence, in consumption, however, it also made it easier for the firm to capital investment opportunity, hence with a decline in a particular country’s Balance of trade. Supply of money (M2) is the merger of M1 and less liquid in natures. Also contained with saving, times deposit, market money funds, and deposit certificate, of money market. It signifies the broad money supply in economy. As upraised in the supply of money causes of liquidity and increased the citizen purchasing power. It means that much money will be available for investment but not just for consumption. Therefore, the relationship is positively expected. Will be assumed correspondingly as the assertion of supply of money has a negligible influence on the stock price. Although, influences of monetary policy on stock prices also be influenced by on environment of the economy. Explain by Naseem et al., (2019) that increasing the stock prices is responsive to the monetary extension. Conservative tools of monetary policy are proficient to reason greater variation in prices paralleled to the policy tools for minor certain economy. However, the excessive money supply would originate the possibility increased in inflation, which is harmful for stock markets. II. LITERATURE REVIEW The theories of literature is the most significant clearly that explanation the causality between the macro variables and stock market. The macro factors and stock market relations are connected with areas of research. This is pointed by May researcher nationally and globally. The outcomes of the calculated work indicate the existence of short and long run connections between the macroeconomic variables and stock market. Equally, there is no connection exist in the exchange rate and stock market. King et al., (1990) considers the threshold adjustment in the association between macro variables and economic activities in the UK. The previously disclose work un-detected abnormality in the long run association between the economic activity and stock market by utilizing the momentum threshold autoregressive Co-integration test. Naseem et al., (2019) examined the relationships among the set of macro variables containing interest rate, inflation, exchange rate, industrial production, supply of money, and stock market of China. They found an indication of co-integration of association between macro variables and the stock market. Furthermore, the position of the macroeconomic variable are originated to be a positive and relation influence on the performance of stock market. Naseem et al., (2019) inspect the association between a set of macroeconomic variables and the Japanese stock market. They originate positive relationships among the share prices and money supply escorted by exchange rate and industrial production. Moreover, (Granger, 1986) attempt to describe the presence equilibrium utilizing the Co-integration exploration, which has now; come to the preferred method and association between for the study of macroeconomic variables and stock market. Mohsin et al., (2019) investigate the dynamic association between the financial factors and equity prices in Pakistan employing the Granger Causality and Multivariate Co-integration technique. Their research result exposed the presence of the connotation between financial factors and equity prices, such as supply of money, consumer price index foreign exchange and treasury bills rate. Naiwen et al., (2020) inspected the dynamic association between the four macro variables and stock prices for the stock market of Malaysian utilizing the vector autoregressive and co-integration. They suggest their results indicate the presence of linkage amongst the variables and stock prices with considerable connections amongst them. Mohsin et al.,

ABSTRACT This thesis examines Shanghai’s urbanisation by applying Henri Lefebvre’s theories of the production of space and everyday life. A review of Lefebvre’s theories indicates that each mode of production produces its own space. Capitalism is perpetuated by producing new space and commodifying everyday life. Applying Lefebvre’s regressive-progressive method as a methodological framework, this thesis periodises Shanghai’s history to the ‘semi-feudal, semi-colonial era’, ‘socialist reform era’ and ‘post-socialist reform era’. The Shanghai World Exposition 2010 was chosen as a case study to exemplify how urbanisation shaped urban experience. Empirical data was collected through semi-structured interviews. This thesis argues that Shanghai developed a ‘state-led/-participation mode of production’.

However, the usual disclaimer applies. 1 Abstract This study investigates the impact of stock market development on economic growth in China. To this end, the quarterly data from 1996 to 2011 are used and the empirical investigation is conducted within the unit root and the cointegration framework. The results show that the relationship between the stock market development, proxied by the total market capitalization, and economic growth is negative. This result is consistent with Harris’ (1997) finding that the stock market development generally does not contribute positively to economic growth in developing countries if the stock market is mainly an administratively-driven market. Key Words: Stock Market, Economic Growth, Unit Root, Cointegration JEL Classification: G10, O1, O4, C22. 2 1. Introduction The impact of the stock market development on economic growth has long been a controversial issue. The theoretical debates generally focus on the increasing intermediation roles and functions of the stock market in promoting liquidity, mobilizing and pooling savings, generating information for potential investments and capital allocation, monitoring firms and exerting corporate control, and providing vehicles for trading, pooling and diversifying risks.

LEGAL ASPECTS OF THE COMMODITY AND FINANCIAL FUTURES MARKET IN CHINA Sanzhu Zhu* I. INTRODUCTION The establishment of China’s first commodity futures exchange in Zhengzhou, Henan in October 1990 marked the emergence of a futures market in China. The Zhengzhou Commodity Exchange was created in the wake of the country’s economic reform and development, and it became the first experimental commodity futures market approved by the central government. The Zhengzhou Commodity Exchange provided a platform and facilitated a need for commodity futures trading arising alongside China’s economic reform, which had begun in 1978, and which was moving towards a market economy by the early 1990s.1 Sixteen years later, the China Financial Futures Exchange (CFFEX) was established in Shanghai.2 This was followed by the opening of gold futures trading on the Shanghai Futures Exchange on January 9, 2008.3 China gradually developed a legal and regulatory framework for its commodity and financial futures markets beginning in the early 1990s, * Senior Lecturer in Chinese commercial law, School of Law, SOAS, University of London.

    Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect FACT SHEET What is it? Shanghai-Hong Kong Stock Connect is a program that establishes access between the two markets. It will allow international investors to trade in a number of shares listed in Shanghai without having to apply for individual licenses and quotas, and for domestic Chinese investors to trade in some Hong Kong stocks. Who can trade? Chinese institutions, as well as retail investors with a minimum of RMB 500,000 (US$80,769) in their securities accounts, can buy stocks on the Hong Kong exchange. There are no restrictions on the type of international investor that can access the Shanghai market. Can investors buy all listed securities on Hong Kong and Shanghai exchanges? No. At the program’s launch, it will cover 266 stocks listed in Hong Kong, and 568 listed in Shanghai. How big is the program? At launch, there will be a daily limit of RMB 10.5 billion (US$1.7 billion) for net inflows into Hong Kong, and a daily market quota of RMB 13 billion (US$2.1 billion) for net inflows into China. Why is it significant? International investors have had limited access to China’s domestic stock market using an individual quota system. At the same time, retail investors in China have also not had direct access to stocks listed overseas. Stock Connect will allow more international investors including individuals and hedge funds to trade Shanghai-listed shares directly for the first time, while also allowing retail investors in China to trade Hong Kong-listed stocks directly.

The Chinese equity market is one of the emerging equity markets which offers an opportunity for international diversification, as a emerging markets, the Chinese stock markets are not mature. Since the 1990s, the reforms in regulations as well as in the attitudes of regulators have rendered the stock market more efficient. The progressive reform process of the stock market has improved the functioning of capital mar- kets and implemented market-based mechanisms. China's stocks pricing mechanism has been pushed toward a more market-oriented approach, in such cases, we expect an alteration in anomalies in the Chinese stock market. In this paper, we examine the daily data from the Shanghai A- share market, and Shenzhen A-share market over the 2006-2019 period. It would seem that in the Chinese stock market, the seasonal anomalies persist. But at the same time, by employing the Hurst exponent analysis, we find that the Chinese stock markets had a trend of becoming more and more efficient after the reform in October 2011. Keywords.

  • U.S. Investors' Exposure to Domestic Chinese Issuers
    1 RISK SPOTLIGHT DIVISION OF ECONOMIC AND RISK ANALYSIS 06 July 2020 U.S. Investors’ Exposure to Domestic Chinese Issuers1 Introduction More than 150 China-based companies with a combined market value of $1.2 trillion2 were listed on U.S. stock exchanges at the end of 2019. As more China-based companies have listed in the U.S., there has been growing concern about the lack of transparency into accounting and governance standards of Chinese firms, which policymakers and certain market participants have warned put U.S. investors at increased risk because of the inability of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) to inspect audit work and practices of PCAOB-registered auditing firms in China (including Hong Kong-based audit firms, to the extent their audit clients have operations in mainland China) with respect to their audit work of U.S.-listed companies with operations in China.3 Policymakers and market participants are discussing how to address these issues.4 This note highlights an important area for those policy discussions: the increasing exposure of U.S. investors to the Chinese domestic issuer market. Compared with China-based companies listed in the U.S., Chinese domestic companies present potentially greater risks. The domestic Chinese financial markets have historically not been very accessible to non-Chinese investors, but that is changing, with accessibility increasing for, among others, U.S. investors. Over the past two years, providers of global financial market indexes have increased the weight on those indexes of Chinese domestic stocks and bonds. Accordingly, U.S. investors holding shares in investment products that track those global indexes are now increasingly holding Chinese domestic stocks and domestic bonds.

  • Construction Methods for the Shanghai Stock Exchange Indexes: 1870-1940
    Construction Methods for the Shanghai Stock Exchange Indexes: 1870-1940 By Wenzhong Fan Yale University Department of Economics Yale SOM, International Center for Finance 1 Brief history of Shanghai Stock Exchange The market for securities trading in Shanghai begins in late 1860s. In June 1866 a list of thirteen companies, including the Hong Kong & Shanghai Banking Corporation, appeared in a local newspaper under the ‘Shares and Stocks’ section. According to The North-China Herald this is about the time when a ‘regular system of dealing in Shares sprang up’. In 1891, during the boom in mining shares, foreign businessmen founded in Shanghai the Shanghai Share Broker’s Association, China’s first stock exchange. In 1904 the Association applied for registration in Hong Kong under the provision of the Companies Ordinance and was renamed as Shanghai Stock Exchange. Several brokers remained outside after the formation of the Exchange due to the different opinions on commissions. Outside brokers formed another Shanghai Sharebrokers’ Association in 1909 in Shanghai International Settlement. An amalgamation eventually took place in 1929, and the combined markets operated thereafter as the Shanghai Stock Exchange. The operation of Shanghai stock exchange comes to an abrupt halt on December 8, 1941 when the Japanese grasped the International Settlement. After the war ended China assumed full control of over Shanghai, the legal privilege and means of enforcing financial contracts for foreign businessmen had gone. The Shanghai Stock Exchange, as a

  • Chinese Companies Listed on Major U.S. Stock Exchanges
    Last updated: October 2, 2020 Chinese Companies Listed on Major U.S. Stock Exchanges This table includes Chinese companies listed on the NASDAQ, New York Stock Exchange, and NYSE American, the three largest U.S. exchanges.1 As of October 2, 2020, there were 217 Chinese companies listed on these U.S. exchanges with a total market capitalization of $2.2 trillion.2 3 Companies are arranged by the size of their market cap. There are 13 national- level Chinese state-owned enterprises (SOEs) listed on the three major U.S. exchanges. In the list below, SOEs are marked with an asterisk (*) next to the stock symbol.4 This list of Chinese companies was compiled using information from the New York Stock Exchange, NASDAQ, commercial investment databases, and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB). 5 NASDAQ information is current as of February 25, 2019; NASDAQ no longer publicly provides a centralized listing identifying foreign-headquartered companies. For the purposes of this table, a company is considered “Chinese” if: (1) it has been identified as being from the People’s Republic of China (PRC) by the relevant stock exchange; or, (2) it lists a PRC address as its principal executive office in filings with U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Of the Chinese companies that list on the U.S. stock exchanges using offshore corporate entities, some are not transparent regarding the primary nationality or location of their headquarters, parent company or executive offices. In other words, some companies which rely on offshore registration may hide or not identify their primary Chinese corporate domicile in their listing information.
