China’s Country Garden, Zhongrong Trust renew debt market fears
|China’s biggest private property developer Country Garden suspends trading of its 11 onshore bonds from Monday, according to filings to the Shenzhen Stock Exchange on Saturday, shared via Nikkei Asia.
On the other hand, Reuters quotes China’s Nacity Property Service Group and KBC Corporation while citing the non-receipt of the payment on maturing investment products from Zhongrong International Trust Co. “The disclosure could deepen market concerns over the health of Chinese conglomerate Zhongzhi Enterprise Group, which controls Zhongrong International and a handful of listed companies,” said Reuters.
It’s worth noting that the fears of a liquidity crunch in Chinese markets previously favored the US Treasury bond yields and the US Dollar. However, the Dragon Nation’s push for more liquidity infusion and the defense of the onshore Yuan (CNY) prod the pessimists.
