We are seeing the supply response from China.  This SEAG chart shows you Chinese steel supply side response is going into overdrive. The red line is the response to TSF.  It just proves that steel is just a play on that and that structurally nothing has changed. China produced 70.6 million tons for March up 16.6% month on month. The highest month on month increase since i've looked at steel in China since 2007.<figure class="editor-figure"><img src="https://static-prod.smartkarma.com/images/media/000/007/404/original/Chinasteelresponse.png?1461199639" class="editor-image img-responsive" data-smartkarma-image-id="7404"></figure> …

Ecstrat

Ecstrat is a consultancy advising on asset allocation between global equity markets, with a focus on the intersection of governments, geopolitics, governance and markets.
 
Over the past few years and more especially since the Great Financial Crisis (GFC), investors have become more focused on short-term market movements and real-time returns and have consequently neglected the analysis of the underlying structural themes that underpin longer term performance.
​
More specifically we believe that the evolution of governance-based relationships between investors, controlling shareholders, labour and the state is one of the primary determinants of both relative and absolute performance between individual equity markets.
 
We will endeavour to provide investors with some of the context surrounding governance-related issues which encompass many different disciplines including history, economics and political science, as well as the financial metrics which are the most obvious manifestation of the structural characteristics of each market.
 
We will pay particular attention to the shifts and potential inflection points for governance in individual markets as these are often the best lead indicators for both economic and market performance.

Unfortunately the impulse value of each stimulus is diminishing.
Due to the precipitous declines in commodities markets prior to this round of stimulus the commodities markets will behave differently from…
