Transcripts
We've done different countries with Japan, with India.
Now let's do China. Great.
Just coming back. What did you learn?
You know, I'd say on the positive, the economy is bottoming.
We heard a couple of different data points, I think, from companies in the
logistics business that are seeing the U.S.
consumer pick up a bit. So that was a positive.
And I do think things have bottomed also in Europe and there's a little bit more
demand. But overall, it's still a pretty
sluggish economy, post-COVID, with very low inflation and the growth that is
there is not evenly distributed. There are some areas growing much more
than others, as I understand it. Yeah, we've spent a lot of time.
I've actually been to China four times in the last five quarters, so I'll give
you how I think the evolution of the economy is changing.
Really, a lot of people focus on fixed investment.
They focus on exports. I think the Chinese government is really
repositioning the economy towards a couple of different things.
One is this whole idea of digitalization, particularly as it
relates to the industrial sector. They're trying to automate that sector
to be more effective and more competitive globally.
In the past, I think a lot of people thought about China in terms of
e-commerce, Alibaba, domestic consumption.
The focus right now from the government really is on industrial automation.
China today actually has about half the world's robots on the industrial side,
which is an amazing statistic. The second big driver is around the
green effort and they're trying to really dominate batteries, EVs and solar
panels and that and they're trying to export some of that globally.
So those are really the growth drivers. The offset, which is still problematic,
is around housing. And our estimate is they have somewhere
between kind of 20 and 30 million too many homes.
And so they're trying to clean that out right now.
But that's a disinflationary force and it clearly has an impact on domestic
psychology as well. So what China is investing in in the
green transition has gotten the attention of places like the United
States and Europe, whether it's solar panels or batteries or EVs, because
there's a concern of a build of overcapacity.
Do you see overcapacity and what does that do to margins?
I think what's going to happen around the world right now is, is that
industries such as autos are going to become of national interest.
We've already seen that in technology could expand into other sectors.
So there's definitely going to be sensitivity.
You saw President Biden talked about, you know, increasing the tariffs there.
Europe, I think, is going to do a similar, similar type of strategy.
So you can have capacity. The question is, is where can that
capacity go? I think probably if you're China, you'll
see more of it go into places such as Latin America, other places, maybe
Eastern Europe, where, where or where they have partners, that maybe there's
increasing kind of bilateral trade. That doesn't seem to be the case in the
US in Europe right now. So there is growth.
You found growth there. As you said, it's bottomed out.
At the same time, when you take into account the disinflation, the nominal
GDP actually is not growing at the same rate as in some other places like Europe
and the United States. If I could give an insight to your
viewers. I mean, KKR typically has 150 businesses
around the world, you know, upwards of 200 now where we operate.
You got to focus on nominal revenues, nominal GDP.
What does that mean? It's real GDP plus inflation.
A lot of times the sell side focuses on real GDP.
And what you've seen in China, when I started going there in 1995 and when I
started at KKR, a nominal GDP was in the teens and 20%.
There was a lot of growth and a lot of profit that comes that comes with that.
Today, that number is probably about a third of that.
So you really that inflation component has come down.
And the second thing is on the real GDP, the productivity has come down in
concert with slower labor force growth. So it is a big deal.
At the same time, the Western world has put a huge amount of fiscal stimulus
into the system, and that's driving a little more inflation, a little more
nominal GDP. What about the animal spirits, as it
were? I mean, because there are a lot of
reports that both individual people and corporate may be sitting on their money
a little bit because they don't have the confidence.
Yeah, you've seen about a 300 basis point increase in the savings rate.
China has a high savings rate to start. It's about 28%.
Normally it's upwards of kind of 31, 32%.
So we estimate if that if they were able to bring that savings rate back down by
increasing confidence again, that could add 2 to $300 billion of additional
spending per year, which is pretty meaningful.
So but what's happened is in a post-COVID world, zero COVID, really,
you had some businesses that didn't do as well during that period.
I think people are looking for a little more direction around the housing market
as well as around just what's the strategy for both exports and and
domestic business posture. And so I think the more the government
can encourage that kind of visibility around the where they're going to go,
their better, it will be for overall both domestic growth as well as is
global growth. Remember, China still even in a in its
current state, is still about 25% of global growth, which is just a massive
number. So so let's turn to the question of what
China can and should do. As you mentioned, real estate in all the
times and nobody talks about China these days without that.
Talk about the real estate problem. Yeah, how bad is it?
What do they need to do? So what we did is we went back and
looked at a bunch of different housing crisis issues to see what the best path
is. And you usually have two, two different
factors. One is price and one is volume.
China has had a real slowdown in volume. They probably need to have a little more
in the form of price. So that will be a headwind.
So what can they do? One is they can actually encourage more
urbanization. They still have a ways to go with their
urbanization rate, kind of 66%. Get that north of 70.
That'll be one thing. Second is you could grant more licenses
to the migrant population, which is actually very meaningful.
It's called hukou, and you can give them permits that would allow them to take up
more permanent residence. Those are easy supply side reforms.
Nothing's easy, but you could do that. The third thing I would do is I would
consolidate the number of developers. They have too many developers, and I
would really back the strong ones, and I would do a little more of a government
guarantee where one is I probably would abandon some of the weaker homes that
are poorly constructed homes and just raise those.
But then I would invest and create visibility around the good homes so that
the Chinese population feel strong about that.
And to the government's credit, what they came out with last week was about a
$50 billion stimulus to do exactly that. What's to say to the capital markets in
China right now? What do they need in order to really get
their growth going again? I think they need to get more foreign
capital to come back into the region. That has really slowed down.
Foreign direct investments, really dropped off a cliff.
It's really fallen off dramatically. So there are a couple of things you
could do. One is, I think you could have more
domestic consumption stories around in the capital markets in the form of IPOs
in the A-share market. That's their their local market.
The second is, I do think it's not just about bringing capital in.
You also have to have exits of companies so that people can access the capital
markets. And probably broadening that is not a
bad, bad strategy overall. So talk to our investors and give them a
little advice here, if you could. KKR has been a player in China for a
good long time. You know your way around over there.
Where are there opportunities right now in China?
Is this a time to be looking for some places to go into China or increase your
exposure? We've been very focused on things around
the domestic economy. So think about lighting efficiency in
lighting pads, veterinarian clinics, beverages, things that are going to
continue as the Chinese population enjoys the benefits of urbanization and
growth. Probably less so in areas such as
technology. For anybody that's interested in Asia
overall, I think one of the mega themes is intra Asia trade.
What's happening is since COVID, you've really seen China and its peers trading
more with each other. It's becoming more like the Europe and
the U.S. So in 1990, about 48% of our trade in
Asia was was intra Asia. Today, that number is meaningfully
higher. We think it's going to be in the
seventies within the next 5 to 7 years. And that is what we heard from CEOs in
not only in China but in Japan, as well as what we hear in India.
So I'd really focus on the infrastructure around that fiber data
centers, transmission lines, roads, ways that that companies can benefit from
that trend. And we're doing that through our
infrastructure business, our private equity business.
Our credit business is lending to those companies to allow them to grow.
That's a great way to do it. Overall, we continue to, like Asia, say
it's about a third of our business and we have a dominant position there and
we've really enjoyed understanding. I think you have to be able to look at
relative value in Asia right now. China is, you know, some people have
moved out of China and India, but that does get reflected in valuation.
So there's this intersection between fundamentals and between valuations.
And I would just encourage your your listeners to make sure that they
understand both India is a great long term market, but it can be expensive at
times. China right now is obviously had some
bumps in the road, but it's actually trading at a pretty attractive
valuation. Japan is probably the most interesting
because it's cheap and their fundamentals around corporate reform are
really improving. So those are probably some tips to
consider as you think about the region.
