Asia And Europe Markets Mixed; Dollar Hovers Near 52-Week High - Global Markets Today While US Slept

<a href="https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/business/international/2024/11/20/jj-merck-cut-jobs-in-china-as-local-competition-takes-toll/#:~:text=Both%20US%20drug%20giants%20have,diabetes%20unit%2C%20the%20people%20said.">https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/business/international/2024/11/20/jj-merck-cut-jobs-in-china-as-local-competition-takes-toll/#:~:text=Both%20US%20drug%20giants%20have,diabetes%20unit%2C%20the%20people%20said.</a>
Johnson &amp; Johnson and Merck &amp; Co. are cutting jobs in China, as they face growing competition from domestic rivals resulting from Beijing's campaign to drive down medical costs.
Both US drug giants have laid off employees in China in recent days, according to people familiar with the matter who asked not to be identified discussing internal matters. The J&amp;J cuts mainly impacted a division that sells products used in surgery, while Merck scaled back in its diabetes unit, the people said.&nbsp;
Chinese media outlets, which were first to report the redundancies, cited the J&amp;J layoffs to be as much as a fifth of its mainland workforce. J&amp;J employs nearly 10,000 people across some 90 cities in China, according to its website.&nbsp;
J&amp;J "has recently implemented organizational changes to optimise our business operations" in the country, a company spokesperson told Bloomberg in an email. J&amp;J remains committed to the "critical and growing" China market, the spokesperson added.&nbsp;
Merck didn't immediately reply to a request for comment outside regular business hours.&nbsp;
Multinational drug and medical device makers are grappling with narrower profit margins in China, largely due to the country's system of having companies bid to supply drugs and devices to public hospitals — known as volume-based procurement (VBP). The program has seen global pharmaceutical companies lose hospital contracts for their top off-patent drugs and devices to cheaper local suppliers, essentially putting their sales team out of work in those categories.
The layoffs add to turmoil in the pharmaceutical market in China. Once seen as a big market opportunity for global drugmakers to expand, they've come under regulatory pressure on multiple fronts. AstraZeneca, which has seen China revenue growth slow due in part to losing hospital contracts for its off-patent medicines, is facing a criminal investigation into allegedly illegal sales practices which has ensnared its China chief.&nbsp;
In a recent earnings call, J&amp;J executives acknowledged a "disproportionate impact from VBP" thanks to its being the largest medtech company in China. The layoffs are the first major round of redundancies affecting the company's surgery division, a person familiar with the matter said, though layoffs in other departments have been ongoing for some time.&nbsp;
Meanwhile, Merck is set to face off against local suppliers for generic versions of two major diabetes drugs – Januvia and Janumet – in the latest round of VBP tender submissions.&nbsp;

Asia Mixed, Europe Markets Gain; Gold Slips And Dollar Gains Against Yen - Global Markets Today While US Slept

Major Chinese fund companies have&nbsp;announced a reduction in fees&nbsp;for a selection&nbsp;of equity exchange-traded funds (ETFs). This move intensifies the price war in the booming $400 billion ETF market.
What Happened: The fee cuts come a day after&nbsp;Wu Qing, China&#8217;s chief securities regulator, expressed support for index investment and fee reform in the fund industry. ETFs, which&nbsp;typically track an index and&nbsp;trade on exchanges, have seen significant growth this year as investors turn away from underperforming active fund managers, Reuters&nbsp;reported on Wednesday.
China Asset Management Co&nbsp;(ChinaAMC), leading the ETF market, announced it would reduce fees on&nbsp;eight ETF products, including the&nbsp;160 billion yuan China SSE 50 ETF. The management fee will drop to 0.15% from 0.5%, and the custodian fee to 0.05% from 0.1%.

Other fund companies such as&nbsp;E Fund Management,&nbsp;Huatai-PineBridge Fund Management,&nbsp;Harvest Fund Management, and&nbsp;HuaAn Fund Management&nbsp;have made similar announcements. This trend is expected to attract more capital into the market, with net inflows into China&#8217;s onshore ETFs surpassing 900 billion yuan this year, according to BNP Paribas. 
Why It Matters: The fee reduction by major Chinese fund companies comes amid a backdrop of economic measures and market fluctuations. In October, investor sentiment was dampened when anticipated large-scale economic stimulus measures from Chinese authorities did not materialize. Despite <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/10/41316058/chinese-stocks-etfs-struggle-as-multi-trillion-yuan-stimulus-hopes-fall-short-yet-m">signals of increased fiscal support,</a> the absence of a substantial economic package left traders underwhelmed.
Furthermore, China&#8217;s decision to cut interest rates in late October led to a decline in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/10/41426987/us-listed-chinese-etfs-drop-after-beijing-cuts-interest-rates">several China-focused ETFs</a> in the U.S. This move, aimed at stimulating economic growth, instead raised concerns among investors about its broader implications.
Meanwhile, U.S.-listed Chinese ETFs have been providing American investors exposure to Chinese equities, bonds, or a combination of both, while being traded on U.S. stock exchanges. These ETFs are a convenient way for investors to gain diversified exposure to China&#8217;s economic growth without the complexities of directly investing in foreign markets. According to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>, KraneShares CSI China Internet ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KWEB#NYSE">KWEB</a>), iShares China Large-Cap ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FXI#NYSE">FXI</a>), Invesco Golden Dragon China ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PGJ#NASDAQ">PGJ</a>), and iShares MSCI China ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MCHI#NASDAQ">MCHI</a>) are some of the popular names on the list.

On Friday, November 15, U.S. markets closed lower, with the S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq recording their steepest losses in two weeks. The decline was fueled by worries over delayed interest rate cuts, reactions to economic data, and Trump&#8217;s cabinet picks, including Robert F. Kennedy Jr., raising vaccine policy concerns.

Asia And Europe Markets Mostly Lower, Dollar's Uptrend Continues - Global Markets Today While US Slept

Renowned tech investor and Palantir Technologies&#8217; co-founder&nbsp;Peter Thiel&nbsp;has made a daring prediction about the potential impact of President-elect Donald Trump&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/24/11/41902202/trumps-china-hawks-rumored-for-top-roles-yuan-hits-3-month-low">60% tariff on Chinese goods</a>.
What Happened: On Thursday, during an interview with The Free Press, Thiel suggested that such a tariff would be &#8220;very, very bad&#8221; for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/social-media/24/11/41912771/trump-presidency-magnificent-7-stock-impact-benzinga-readers-pick-tech-titan-at-most-risk-following-2024-election">Chinese companies</a> and China as a whole.
However, he believes the impact on American consumers would be &#8220;mildly negative&#8221; as manufacturing would likely shift away from China.
According to Thiel, shifting manufacturing from China to Vietnam would significantly harm China, and have only a minor impact on American consumers. From a geopolitical perspective, he argued, this move would align closely with American strategic interests.

Why It Matters: Earlier this year, Chinese stocks <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/05/38782459/china-focused-etfs-have-become-political-footballs-in-us-as-investor-apprehension-leads-to-large-sca#google_vignette">experienced a notable rally</a>, pushing the SSE Composite Index in Shanghai to its highest point since September 2023.
However, Trump's proposed tariffs, which could reach as high as 60% on Chinese goods, along with additional import hikes on other nations, could disrupt these investments.
A day after Trump won, China-linked ETFs witnessed a sharp fall after rallying for nearly two months.

Earlier this week, Chinese President Xi Jinping also expressed China's willingness to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42025284/xi-jinping-tells-joe-biden-china-is-ready-to-work-with-trump-as-tariff-threat-looms">collaborate with the U.S. government</a>, regardless of the administration in power.

Peter Thiel Says Trump's 60% China Tariff Would Be 'Very, Very Bad' For Beijing, Here's What's At Stake

<a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/commodities/china-cut-or-cancel-export-tax-rebates-products-including-aluminium-copper-2024-11-15/">https://www.reuters.com/markets/commodities/china-cut-or-cancel-export-tax-rebates-products-including-aluminium-copper-2024-11-15/</a>
&nbsp;
China's finance ministry said on Friday it would reduce or cancel export tax rebates for a wide range of commodities and other products, effective Dec. 1.
The country will reduce the export tax rebate rate for some refined oil products, photovoltaics, batteries, and certain non-metallic mineral products from 13% to 9%.
It will also cancel the rebate for aluminum and copper products and chemically modified animal, plant, or microbial oils and fats.
The announcement triggered a jump in aluminium prices on the London Metal Exchange as traders anticipated it may curb a heavy flow of Chinese aluminium abroad.
The news also contributed to a sharp rise in U.S. soyoil prices as it appeared Chinese used cooking oil would be covered by the changes.
Chinese shipments of used cooking oil to the <a href="https://www.reuters.com/markets/commodities/trump-trade-policy-seen-wild-card-us-soybean-farmers-opportunity-crushers-2024-11-13/">United States</a> and Europe for use in biofuel have challenged locally produced feedstocks like soyoil.
China's used cooking oil exports typically fall under the customs category of chemically modified animal, plant, or microbial oils and fats category, for which export rebates will be scrapped.

President Yoon Suk Yeol and Chinese President Xi Jinping held their first talks in two years in Peru on the sidelines of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit to discuss bilateral ties and regional issues.
The two leaders are expected to discuss various measures to facilitate economic cooperation, culture and people-to-people exchanges and share in-depth opinions on regional security, according to Yoon's office.
Among likely agenda items is North Korea's troop deployment to Russia in support of its war in Ukraine, which has caused concerns over broader security implications on the Korean Peninsula.
In an interview with Spanish news agency EFE on Thursday, Yoon said Seoul will continue maintaining "strategic dialogue" with China to encourage it to play a role in promoting regional stability.
Amid a deepening military alignment between Pyongyang and Moscow, Beijing recently included South Korea on the list of temporary visa waiver countries. Seoul welcomed the move, voicing hope that it will help further promote "friendly sentiment" between the two neighbors.

Chinese President Xi Jinping warned against any efforts to unwind globalization in his first major remarks since Donald Trump won the US presidential election after threatening to impose tariffs as high as 60% on the world's second-biggest economy.
