SOEs reform likely to fully implement
------
The top design plan on the state-owned enterprises (SOEs) reform was officially released on Sept. 13. The plan highlights the significance of the capital market in this round of reform. Unexpectedly, the stock market shows slight response to it in short term. The A-share market is transforming from a crisis model into a restoration and reconstruction model. Besides, the actual operation of the SOEs reform experiences a process from point to surface and from partial progress to full implementation. It is believed that with the releasing of authoritative interpretations, implementation details and supporting measures by various ministries and commissions, the influence of the SOEs reform on the market will show out gradually. The merger and reorganization of central enterprises or local listed SOEs arising from it may continue to be hotspots in the market.

Firstly, the size and intensity of this round of state-owned assets reform are far beyond past reforms. Its primary objective is to stimulate the vitality and competitiveness of state-owned assets and SOEs, consolidate and strengthen their fundamental roles in the operation of the national economy and make them stronger, better and bigger to vitalize and drive the growth of the real economy. In terms of the overall sluggish economy and the low-efficient operation model of state-owned assets, this round of state-owned assets and SOEs reform is of special significance. It has to be implemented actually.

Secondly, strengthening control and leadership while providing state-owned assets and state-owned enterprises (SOEs) with policy and resources support aims to emphasize that SOEs reform must explore its own way and cannot be simplified or completely westernized. Benefit transfer, loss of state-owned assets, etc. occurred in previous reforms must be prevented. It is hoped that the Communist Party of China (CPC) cadres can finally figure out reasonable governance framework of SOEs by participating in market-oriented operation and management as well as cultivating their entrepreneur quality and ability. The enhancement of the overall achievements and governance level of listed companies controlled by state-owned assets which take up over 60 percent of market value will greatly boost the capital market.

Thirdly, after the launch of top-level design of SOEs reform, a string of detailed rules and supportive measures will be released in succession. It is learnt that the problems concerned the most by the decision makers are reorganization and the partial opening up of the market for the entrance of some non-state-owned assets. By increasing efforts in reorganization, state-owned assets will be centralized in important industries and critical areas concerning national security, the lifelines of the national economy and the national welfare and the people's livelihood, critical infrastructure, forward-looking and strategic industries, and superior enterprises with core competitiveness. In fact, the state-owned assets in Shanghai have gone ahead of the rest and have achieved relatively sound market effect recently. It might play a demonstration role nationwide. The opinions on implementing negative list on market access launched by the Central Leading Group for Deepening Overall Reform on Sept.15 suggest that the public area, which is the basis of monopoly by traditional SOEs, is gradually opening to private capital.

State-owned assets investment and operation modes to classified into 2 types
------
Reportedly, in order to improve the existing state-owned assets supervision system, the state-owned assets investment and operation enterprises might be classified into two types in the future. One type is the state-owned enterprises (SOEs) managed by the Ministry of Finance and other ministries and commissions and supervised in form of assets investment and operation companies. The other one is under the supervision and management of the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission (SASAC). Specifically, some central enterprises will be restructured to be investment and operation ones, but they are still subordinated to the SASAC. The investment and operation companies will be in charge of operation of the central enterprises equity and conduct corresponding assets supervision and administration, while those central enterprises under the SASAC will be principally engaged in production and operation rather than assets operation.

Flexible allocated funds with low positions increase positions gradually
------
As learnt by SSN, along with the further drop in the market in the last ten days of August, flexible allocated funds with short positions or low positions earlier start to gradually increase positions, but some are quite radical. For example, Yimin Service Mixed Leading Fund (Fund code: 000410) ranking the second in the stock funds list in 2015 is almost in short positions since late May, but it began to increase positions from last week and its position has reached nearly 60 percent at present. Changsheng Electronic Information Industry Mixed Funds(Fund code: 080012) ranking the fifth closed positions in early June, but it started to increased positions from last week and its positions account to almost 100 percent now. Based on the predicted data on relevant funds positions, more than 40 percent of funds increased positions over the last week.

Funds which recently increased positions believe that forced de-leveraging caused the short-term to suffer excessive price decrease. Off-market industrial capital, regarded as "smart capital", start to actively increase shareholdings or buy shares through secondary market acquisition. Some listed companies also attempted to launch employee shareholding plans not completely for market value management. High premium of institutions was involved in the private placement of listed companies. All these signs suggest that some quality stocks see opportunities for value investment.
