<li>Within H/A Pairs, after outperforming the HK/mainland spread for weeks, spreads got shellacked. Worst week in a long time (-3.7%), perhaps on the back of "disappointing" lack of stimulus measures.</li>

<li>This week's confabs did NOT deliver stimulus plans, but with Donald Trump's election, I expect any major fiscal plans get pushed back to next spring to adapt on the fly.</li>
