He said: "It is still above the 8 per cent growth targeted by the government for this year. We think the government wants to see the economy slowing down, even from the second-quarter level.他说:“这仍高于政府的目标,每今年增长百分之八。我们认为政府希望看到经济放缓甚至从第二季度的水平。
"Having said that, we don't think there will be further tightening either, as the current measures have had the desired effect of cooling down the economy so far, which in itself is positive for China's long-term development." “话虽如此,我们不认为会有任何进一步的紧缩,因为目前的措施已取得的经济降温,到目前为止,达到预期效果,这本身就是对中国的长远发展产生积极的。”

In particular he said Swip's Japanese equity team's positions included companies with exposure to Asian markets where "valuations are not too demanding", such as Mitsui, electronics companies and automobile businesses such as Toyota and Nissan.他特别指出Swip的日本股票队的职务包括与接触的地方“是不是太苛刻的估值,如三井,电子公司和汽车企业”,如丰田和日产等亚洲市场的公司。
