We expect China's oil demand to grow at 6.2% in 2010 and 9.0%
in 2011. We examine the current situation from a variety of physical oil
demand drivers (capital investment, domestic consumption, car sales).
• While China's fiscal stimulus package may boost growth in this year, its
longer-term impact should not be underestimated, especially when
projects usually take a long time to complete. Hence, capital investment is
likely to be strong. Meanwhile, the investment boom has encouraged job
creation and strength in consumer expenditure, which in turn augmented
strong consumption spending, driving up demand for domestic demand.
• As a recap, the Chinese market witnessed an improved economy in 2009,
thanks to the government's aggressive stimulus spending and various
subsidies. Throughout this recovery period, manufacturing has seen a
strong rebound, largely due to base effects and strong domestic demand.
ANZ's real activity index, which tracks a composite of industrial and
consumption data, reached a second record high in 4Q09. The vehicle
market saw 13 million new sales last year. Steel production, an indirect
measure of construction and investment activities, recorded a turnaround
in 2009. Going forward, our ANZ economists expect 1Q10 GDP growth to
reach a record 11.6% (YoY), with risk biased to the upside.
• Our economists' forecast calls for a more proactive monetary tightening
measures, going forward. Rising CPI inflation, surging export growth and
housing price data suggest that China needs to pare back on its
aggressive stimulus and monetary policies. (Reference: China Economics
and Research – China is on the Brink of Overheating, Mar 2010)
• Post this period, we question on whether employing economic tightening
measures will impact China's oil demand growth. We stress-test how
these demand indicators will react to credit tightening. Our analysis
suggests that China's cooling measures will have limited effects on China's
oil demand, bolstered by strong underlying oil demand drivers.
• However, in the past two years, we note that China has implemented
several policies to contain the domestic oil consumption modestly,
including hikes on oil consumption tax and a reform on oil products'
pricing mechanism.
• In addition, according to preliminary trade data released last Saturday,
Chinese imports rose sharply in Mar in part owing to price increases in
global commodities (including crude). This implies that China continues to
import inflation. Should further economic data suggest that inflation has
accelerated and oil prices remain above US$80/bbl, we believe China's
National Development Reform Commission will find another reason to
raise gasoline and diesel prices – that is, to contain inflation.
