ESG REPORTING
Blog - Materiality Question Dogs SEC’s ESG Disclosure Project -
“When it comes to disclosure, investors have told us what they want,” Gensler tweeted in early August. “It’s now time for the
commission to take the baton.”
However, it would be practically impossible for the SEC to require all the above-listed information in one expansive rule. In
addition, though it might please climate change activists, it would alienate issuers and bring heaps of scorn from the business
lobby. More importantly, though, it could violate a bedrock principle of SEC disclosure mandates: materiality.
Disclosures are material when they are reasonably likely to impact a company’s financial condition or operating performance.
Therefore, they are the most important to investors, to use the definition of the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board.

AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND
ASX 200 futures are up 12 points, or 0.16% to 7,166 as of 7:30am AEST.
The value trade was in vogue last night with the Dow Jones being the clear outperformer among the major
market indices. Bank stocks rallied after all of them passed the Federal Reserve's annual stress test. On
the macro front, the US economy expanded by 2% in the first quarter of 2023 and a downtick in
unemployment claims is providing the bulls with a sigh of relief. Chinese PMIs will headline the final day of
the financial year.
Let's dive in

GDP PER CAPITA

CHINA GDP
Economists surveyed by Bloomberg now expect China’s gross domestic product to expand 5.5% this year
from a year ago, edging down from a prior estimate of 5.6%. They also said the central bank will likely cut the
reserve requirement ratio for major banks earlier than expected. James Mayger reports on Bloomberg
Television.

SOUTH AMERICA
Latin America’s economies held up well last year despite the shocks from Russia’s invasion of Ukraine
and global interest rate hikes. In 2022, the region’s economy expanded by nearly 4 percent,
employment recovered strongly, and the service sector rebounded from the damage caused by the
pandemic.
Inflationary pressures are receding in many countries due to the early and determined efforts of central
banks as well as lower global prices of food and energy. However, core inflation (that is, excluding food
and energy), remains high at around 8 percent in Brazil, Mexico, and Chile (and somewhat higher in
Colombia but lower in Peru).

Blog – Stock Market Analysis and Commentary for the week-ending June 30 2023
Stocks climbed Friday, ending a strong first half on a high note amid more signs of cooling from
the Federal Reserve's preferred inflation gauge.
The S&P 500 (^GSPC) rose 1.2%, while the Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) rose over 300
points, or just under 1%. The Nasdaq Composite (^IXIC) added 1.5%.
All three major stock benchmarks logged strong performances for both the year's second quarter
and first half. The Nasdaq is up more than 30% since the start of the year, according to Yahoo
Finance data. That represented its best first half of the year since 1983, according to data from
Bespoke Investment.
The benchmark S&P 500 has gained around 16%, while the Dow has put up a more modest 4%
gain.
On Friday, the Fed's preferred inflation index showed prices rose 3.8% in May on a year-over-
year basis, down from a 4.4% year-over-year jump in April. And from April to May, prices
ticked up just 0.1%.
The data comes after a surprise upward revision to first-quarter GDP showed the US economy is
a lot stronger than Wall Street thought. Growing faith in that strength has helped drive this year's
rally in stocks, even though that resilience likely means rates will stay higher for longer.
