Money Talk

Chinese stocks opened in lacklustre mood after the Fed minutes provided no new clues on the path for US interest rate moves but shares then turned sharply higher after Reuters reported progress in the US-China trade talks. According to the news agency, negotiators are drawing up six memorandums of understanding on key structural issues in the dispute including forced technology transfer & cyber theft, intellectual property rights, services, currency, agriculture and non-tariff barriers to trade. In addition, trade representatives are also looking at a ten-item list of short-term measures to reduce China’s trade surplus with the US, including buying agricultural produce, energy and semiconductors. Following the reports, which cited unnamed sources close to the negotiations, US stock futures jumped higher in Asian trading Thursday dragging stocks in Hong Kong and China firmer with them.

Our guests on this Friday’s Money Talk are Francis Lun, CEO of GEO Securities and Michelle Lam, Greater China Economist from SG Corporate and Investment Banking. Providing the view from down under is Toby Lawson, Head of Global Markets at Societe Generale Australia.

Backchat

On Friday's Backchat, more on the Greater Bay Area. Thursday's symposium, Co-organised by the People's Government of Guangdong Province, the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and the Government of the Macao Special Administrative Region provided more details on plans for the GBA, but also raised more questions. And how will businesses and ordinary people be engaged in the plan? What difference will it make to our everyday lives - and is that a good or bad thing? How can we integrate with integrity?

After 9.20, Karl Lagerfeld, the most famous designer in the world dies.

Let us know your thoughts. You can leave a message on our Facebook page, Backchat on RTHK Radio 3, email us at backchat@rthk.hk, or give us a call on 23388266.

Over $17 million Raised by Operation Santa Claus 2018

Helping and serving others is the foundation of happiness. Themed as “Spread some Joy this Christmas”, Operation Santa Claus, the annual fundraising event jointly organised by Radio Television Hong Kong (RTHK) Radio 3 and the South China Morning Post (SCMP), has raised more than HK$17 million for 13 charity projects this year.

Guests at the closing ceremony, held at Crown Wine Cellars in Shouson Hill, were entertained by band leader Colin Aitchison and the China Coast Jazzmen. And 13-year-old award-winning local singer Elizabeth Stewart was also on stage to help fill the occasion with warmth. Officiating guests, Director of Broadcasting LEUNG Ka-wing and Chief Executive Officer of South China Morning Post Gary LIU then revealed the total raised -- HK$17,096,327 -- on a specially made extended scroll. They expressed heartfelt thanks for the generous support from individuals, schools, groups of workmates and corporate donors over the past two months.

Among the supporters who made this year such a success, several received special awards during the ceremony.
