CIC lebih agresif investasi stok di berbagai negara

Oleh: Syafedi Syafei Phd

CIC (China Investment Corporation) dengan agresif melakukan investasi di berbagai negara. CIC membidik perusahaan besar yang pada saat ini bermasalah dalam keuangan. Di Indonesia, CIC  “membantu” grup Bakri yang mengalami kesulitan keuangan. Akankah setelah bantuan ini, CIC akan memiliki sebagian share grup Bakri? Melihat kodisi market saat ini, hal ini kemungkinan besar akan terjadi.

Selain melalui dana CIC, grup Bakri juga melakukan usaha untuk menarik dana masyarakat melalui right issue beberapa perusahaannya yang listing di BEI, yaitu Energi (ENRG) dan DEWA. Dengan kondisi market yang kurang mendukung, sehingga harga saham di market pada saat right issue lebih rendah dari harga right issue, jadi kemungkinan besar masyarakat tidak menebus right issue tersebut. Jika masyarakat tidak menebus, kemungkinan besar CIC akan melakukan penebusan melalui market. Dengan cara ini maka CIC akan memiliki share perusahaan grup Bakri. Dan jumlah share CIC bisa saja akan lebih dari 50%.

Usaha CIC ini tidak hanya dilakukan di Indonesia. Sejumlah $ 9 billion CIC menanamkan dananya pada perusahaan besar Amerika sepertii Morgan Stanley, Bank of America dan Citigroup. Demikian juga pada negara lain seperti Canada dan Australia.

Langkah seperti ini juga sudah dilakukan oleh negara Singapore melalui “perusahaan negara” Tamasek. Setelah krisis tahun  1998 (kejatuhan Soeharto) Tamasek menguasai beberapa perusahaan besar Indonesia, seperti Telkom, Indosat, Bank Danamon, BII, dll.

Sistem Investasi Negara seperti yang dilakukan oleh China dan Singapore kemungkinan akan diikuti oleh negara lain. Kita tunggu munculnya nama-nama lain seperti CIC dan Tamasek dari negara lain. Kedepan, kita akan lihat sistem penjajahan ekonomi gaya baru, yaitu penguasaan perusahaan Indonesia oleh negara asing.

Berikut adalah artikel dari Newyork Times tentang sepak terjang CIC:

After Buying Spree, China Owns Stakes in Top U.S. Firms

by David Barboza and Keith Bradsher
Monday, February 8, 2010

Flush with cash despite the global economic downturn, China’s sovereign wealth fund quietly snapped up more than $9 billion worth of shares last year in some of the biggest American corporations, including Morgan Stanley, Bank of America and Citigroup.

Although most of the stakes were small, China Investment Corp., the government’s $300 billion investment fund, now owns stock in some of the best-known American brands, including Apple, Coca-Cola, Johnson & Johnson, Motorola and Visa.

More from NYTimes.com: • Asia Sails Smoothly Through Debt Waters • Once Again, Seeing the Shadow of Madoff • Some Toyota Owners Voice an Eroding Loyalty

The detailed list, which contained holdings totaling $9.6 billion as of Dec. 31, was disclosed Friday in a filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission; it lists stakes only in companies traded in the United States.

The filing offers a glimpse of how China is trying to diversify its more than $2 trillion in foreign currency holdings with stock, rather than investing almost entirely in U.S. Treasury bonds and other debt securities issued by governments and by government-sponsored enterprises like Fannie Mae.

Prime Minister Wen Jiabao of China and other officials have repeatedly expressed worry about how the country’s holdings of U.S. Treasury securities could be hurt by inflation or by mounting U.S. debt. By buying the securities of international companies, China is trying to spread its fast-growing wealth more widely. It is also seeking to acquire strategic stakes in companies that could feed its hungry economy with a wide range of commodities.

C.I.C., already one of the world’s largest sovereign funds, was formed in 2007 with about $200 billion. It now has assets of nearly $300 billion and, according to state-run news media, is expecting another large injection of funds.

A spokeswoman for C.I.C., which is based in Beijing, did not return e-mail messages or phone calls seeking comment. But analysts said the filing showed that the fund had invested only a small portion of its $300 billion in American stocks, and the fund seemed to be following a cautious strategy to diversify globally after initially having put its biggest investments into shoring up the capital of Chinese banks.

“This is still a relatively small amount compared to the total size of the fund,” said Chang Chun, a professor of finance at the China Europe International Business School in Shanghai.

The sovereign wealth fund got off to a rocky start in 2007 and early 2008 by acquiring a $3 billion nonvoting stake in the American private equity firm Blackstone and paying another $5 billion for a 9.9 percent stake in Morgan Stanley.

Shares of both companies plummeted in 2008 during the financial crisis, leading to a storm of criticism directed at C.I.C. But analysts say the fund performed well in 2009, particularly because it was buying aggressively as the market recovered.

Exactly when C.I.C. bought the shares of various companies was not disclosed in the filing. And C.I.C.’s acquisition of nonvoting units of Blackstone and its early stake of preferred shares in Morgan Stanley are not listed in the filing. The Blackstone and Morgan Stanley stakes are not listed, apparently because they are not traded equities.

The filing indicates that C.I.C. owns about $19 million worth of Bank of America stock, close to $30 million worth of Citigroup shares and about $333 million worth of shares in Visa, as well as holdings in various index funds.

The fund’s largest listed holdings were $1.7 billion worth of shares in Morgan Stanley and nearly $650 million worth of shares in BlackRock, the New York money management fund.

The Morgan Stanley stake was acquired last June, when the investment bank issued about $2.2 billion worth of common shares to help repay the U.S. government under the Troubled Asset Relief Program; C.I.C. acquired about $1.2 billion worth of shares at that time.

Some U.S. politicians in both parties have been nervous about China’s growing financial reach, and particularly wary that China might seek political influence in the West commensurate with its corporate stakes. Wariness in Washington flared four years ago when Congress discouraged Cnooc, a state-owned Chinese oil company, from buying Unocal.

Most sovereign wealth funds, with the exception of Norway’s, disclose few details about their holdings. But C.I.C. made its list available for the first time on the S.E.C.’s form 13F, which is filed quarterly by institutional investors and mutual funds in the United States.

Ben Simpfendorfer, an economist at Royal Bank of Scotland, said the Chinese sovereign wealth fund’s decision to disclose its holdings could limit concerns about secrecy in government holdings.

“This should help reassure politicians that Chinese sovereign wealth funds can take minority positions responsibly,” he said.

C.I.C.’s holdings outside the United States are substantial and growing. In Canada, it owns a $3.5 billion stake in Teck Resources, a mining and resources company listed in the United States, and a $1 million stake in Research in Motion, the maker of BlackBerry mobile phones.

The sovereign wealth fund has also been buying small stakes in Australia’s biggest banks and paid $646 million last autumn for a stake in Noble Group, a diversified commodities company based in Hong Kong with operations around the world in industries like iron ore mining and sugar mills.

Executives whose companies have accepted investments from C.I.C. tend to defend it as apolitical.

Richard S. Elman, the founder and chairman of Noble, said last month that C.I.C. executives had been businesslike in their approach to the investment.

“They are hugely commercial, and they want results,” he said. “They do not interfere in the day-to-day operations.”

Masih percayakah kita dengan Wall Street?

Will We Ever Again Trust Wall Street?
by Jason Zweig
Monday, February 8, 2010

For many investors, the market’s turbulence hasn’t just destroyed wealth. It has shattered their faith in the financial system itself.

Consider Philip Eberlin, 56 years old, who runs a woodwork-restoration business in Chicago Heights, Ill. Trading hot stocks a decade ago, Mr. Eberlin got burned on picks like Krispy Kreme and Tyco. In 2007 he got back into stocks, only to take another hit.

More from WSJ.com:

• Will New Rules Tame the Wall Street Tiger?

• Protecting Yourself From the Giant New Deficit

• Outlook: Where Will the Markets Go Next?

“Having been burned twice in 10 years,” says Mr. Eberlin, he now has about 80% of his family’s assets “protected from the market” in certificates of deposit and fixed annuities. “I don’t have trust in Wall Street to help the small investor in any way, shape or form.”

Mr. Eberlin isn’t alone. Late last year, Decision Research of Eugene, Ore., asked Americans how much they trusted bankers and other Wall Street leaders “to reduce the risk of the financial challenges the country is facing now.” On a scale of 1 to 5, with 1 meaning no trust at all, the rating averaged a paltry 1.7.

With such a loss of faith, how will companies be able to obtain the capital they need to expand? The foundations of the financial markets ultimately rest upon the confidence of mom-and-pop investors across the country.

But every investor has a fundamental need to believe that the world is just—that good people are ultimately rewarded, that bad people are eventually punished and that the system isn’t rigged to favor an undeserving few.

This belief in a just world is partly delusional; most of us realize that nice guys often finish last. But this delusion makes short-term setbacks endurable. “A belief that the world is fair and predictable is necessary in order for people to delay gratification and to make investments that will pay off in the long run,” says James Olson, a psychologist at the University of Western Ontario.

So when bad things happen, “people often prefer to blame themselves rather than believe they live in a chaotic and unjust world,” says Dale Miller, a psychology professor at Stanford University.After tech stocks crashed in 2000-2001, for instance, many investors kicked themselves for taking foolish risks.

This time around, however, many investors who followed the best advice were punished the worst. Someone who held a total-stock-market index fund lost more than 58% from October 2007 through March 2009 and remains 31% behind even after last year’s recovery.

These people can’t blame themselves; they did as they had been told. Meanwhile, they watched Wall Street firms parcel out billions in bonuses.

I believe the old truths remain valid: Buying and holding a diversified stock portfolio still makes sense. Paradoxically, as fewer people cling to their faith in traditional stock investing, the future rewards from it are likely to grow greater.

But that can take time. In 1952, two full decades after the Great Crash hit bottom, only 19% of wealthy Americans regarded stocks as the wisest investment choice, according to a Federal Reserve survey. Most investors thus sat out the great bull market of the 1950s, when stocks gained 19.4% annually.

How can faith be restored?

Wall Street firms need to be forthright in admitting their shortcomings. The more they protest their innocence, the more they make the typical investor feel that the financial world is unjust.

The Pecora hearings, held in the U.S. Senate in the 1930s, served partly as a form of public expiation, in which Wall Street’s leaders apologized for their firms’ conduct. The Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission, formed by Congress in 2009 and now holding its own hearings, may help investors feel that Wall Street can own up to its mistakes.

Finally, financial advisers need to be much less dogmatic and confident in their predictions. By admitting the extent of their own ignorance today, they would help prevent investors from feeling railroaded tomorrow.

“Just Ordinary Americans”: Don’t Underestimate the Tea Party Movement

Scott Brown’s victory in Massachusetts last month did more than just break the Democrats filibuster-proof majority in the Senate. It also brought the movement into the mainstream as the Tea Party played at least an indirect role in helping the Republican win.But what, exactly, is the Tea Party?

It’s hard to define by conventional means but Ben McGrath, staff writer for The New Yorker, says the Tea Party is a “marriage of two main strains” of conservative politics – libertarians and social conservatives. “People who would have voted Republican historically but don’t think of themselves as Republicans” anymore, having been frustrated by the big spending or international activism (or both) of the GOP during the George W. Bush era.

In a recent New Yorker article and the accompanying clip, McGrath takes pains to dispel the commonly held view that the Tea Party is a bunch of fringe radicals.

“Sure [you] might find one or two wacky people but they’re [mostly] just ordinary Americans who have a deep sense the country is going to a place they’re not comfortable with,” he says. “Something about the idea of a tea party [the] connection to the American Revolution has animated them, gotten them interested in civic engagement in a new way.”

McGrath also disputes the notion the Tea Party is being led by Glenn Beck, Sarah Palin, Dick Armey, Lou Dobbs, Rick Santelli or anyone else for that matter.

“There isn’t one leader and even those who might be indentified are really sensitive to the concern of followers there need not be a leader, should not be a leader,” he explains. “The Internet is the leader” much like with Moveon.org or the Obama campaign in 2008.

Because of the common misperceptions about the Tea Party, especially in mainstream media circles, McGrath says the movement is being underestimated as a powerful force in American politics, as we’ll discuss further in an upcoming segment. The First National Tea Party Conventions kicks off Thursday in Nashville.
