• Asia: Upgraded and Primed to Trade

Since the last examination of the Asian futures exchanges in April, virtually every planned or projected upgrade has been implemented. Whether it is new technology in Japan or relaxed restrictions on access in Taiwan, Asia is an easier place to trade than ever before. It will be a while before one starts to see consolidation in Asia, although the exchanges are already talking about it.

• Thai Ipos Spring to Life As China Offerings Dry Up

China was the world's biggest market for initial public offerings (IPO) last year, but its IPO market has shriveled following a sharp drop in stock prices since last October, while the long-dormant market in Thailand is coming back to life. The small rush by Thai companies to tap the local equity market comes at a time when the local economy is looking up. Meanwhile, many equity issues in China were postponed or withdrawn last month. The total value of IPOs in China declined to $7.85 billion in the first quarter of 2008 from $9.06 billion in the same period a year earlier. The China Securities Regulatory Commission announced last month that it would strengthen its supervision of IPOs to reduce speculative trading, which contributed to the stock market's slump.
