On August 15th, regarding the issue of non-Shanghai residents purchasing homes for replacement purposes, a staff member at the Shanghai Real Estate Transaction Center hotline stated that no new policies have been introduced. According to the hotline staff, non-Shanghai resident families who sell their only property can exchange it for one more home within the city, provided the ownership remains the same before and after. No social security or individual income tax certificates are required. This policy has been in effect since May 28, 2024. For non-Shanghai resident families or single adults selling some of their properties (i.e., owning two or more properties), when purchasing a new home, the number and location of the new home must match the previously sold property—if a property is sold outside the outer ring road, it can only be purchased outside the outer ring road; if a property is sold within the outer ring road, it can only be purchased within the outer ring road. No social security or individual income tax certificates are required. This policy has been in effect since February 26, 2026. Regarding home purchases and exchanges by foreign individuals, hotline staff stated that foreign individuals who sell all their properties in Shanghai can exchange them for and purchase one additional home in the city without submitting a foreigners residence permit (work category), a Shanghai employment contract valid for at least one consecutive year prior to the date of purchase, or proof of social security and individual income tax payments valid for at least one consecutive year prior to the date of purchase. However, they still need to sign a commitment letter for self-occupancy of the property. This policy will take effect on July 29, 2026.On August 15th, a rare occurrence this week was Jensen Huang joining forces with six Wall Street asset management giants to endorse the idea of "developing AI computing power into an independent asset class." Analysts believe this is Huang putting his "meta-economics" into practice, signifying that the AI hype is extending from a technology race to a capital race. However, this latest plan has also sparked investor concerns about "revolving financing" and debt risks. Faced with these questions, Huang personally reassured the market again. He stated that Nvidia might "provide a residual value support mechanism of up to 25% for individual investment projects" and would carefully evaluate each project. Market sentiment subsequently eased slightly.August 15th - According to Lighthouse Pro, as of August 15th, the total box office (including pre-sales) for August 2026 has exceeded 3 billion yuan.

The Australian dollar was trading below the 0.6600 US dollar support level during the Tokyo trading session. As a result of the Federal Reserve's interest rate decision, the asset is tumbling like a pack of cards (Fed). The two-day downtrend has resumed, and the asset is now trading below the round-number support of 0.6600. The asset is expected to have support close to the 0.65 level.

 

Investors believed the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates by 75 basis points (bps) for a third time in a row. Volatile hawkish counsel has had an effect on risk-sensitive and commodity-linked currencies. The Fed has put off job growth, economic prospects, the housing market, and demand for durable goods in order to maintain price stability, which is its core goal.

 

The target for maturity rates is 4.6%, which is significantly higher than the previous peak of 3.6%. Because of this, the distribution of loans will be slowed and the market liquidity will decrease. Lenders may also see an increase in their delinquency fees as a result. Since fewer loans are being made available, some companies may delay expansion plans.

 

The financial markets in Australia will be closed on Thursday for National Mourning Day. Accordingly, the performance of the US dollar index will continue to be scrutinized closely (DXY). The S&P Australian PMI data is expected to be issued on Friday, and investors will continue to keep a close eye on it. It is expected that the Manufacturing PMI would rise from 53.8 to 54.0. While we expect the Services PMI to drop from its current 50 to a much more modest 47.7.
