SGX'S MONTHLY VOLUMES REACHED A RECORD HIGH OF 705,000 MT IN NOVEMBER 2013
 COALspot.com: SGX has announced that, it monthly volumes have reached a record high of 705 lots (705,000 mt) in November 2013 with month-end open interest touching an all-time high of 605 lots (605,000 mt).
According to SGX, the participation in SGX thermal coal markets were represented by natural hedgers (power generation & mining companies), global and Chinese trading firms and international banks. These record volumes and open interest were supported by thermal coal desks at various interdealer broking houses and in particular GFI Group Pte Ltd and Marex Spectron Asia Pte Ltd who between them represented the majority share of the market.
“SGX is thankful and appreciative of its customers and the interdealer brokers in contributing towards the development of this marketplace”, SGX said in a note. Of encouraging note is the greater acceptance of the API 8 index with record volumes hitting an all-time high of 460 lots (460,000 mt) this month. According to SGX, this is reflective of Chinese demand for physical coal in preparation for the upcoming winter and also due to low coal stockpiles both at the port and power plants. Front month prices have become more volatile leading to increasing hedging activity.
SGX further said in its note, for the first time, total cleared volumes on API 8 has crossed 2 million tons in a month across all exchanges. In comparison to sea-borne imports into China, this is still a small number with potential for significant growth. According to Standard Chartered Bank research, in 2012, China imported about 200 million tons of coal across all grades and that number is estimated to be 260 million tons for 2013.
In late September, Zhengzhou Commodity Exchange (ZCE) launched a thermal coal futures contract. Liquidity in ZCE’s contract are observed in its May 2014 contract month followed by Jan 14 contract. Correlation of daily settlement prices of SGX’s API 8 coal contract and ZCE’s thermal coal contract shows a strong correlation on the front of the curve while price behavior around the midpoint of the forward curve represents conflicting viewpoints. This price behavior is based on limited data points observed between 8th October 2013 to 30th November 2013, SGX said in its note.
SGX offers thermal coal swaps and futures contracts on SGX API 8 CFR China Coal Index and SGX IHS McCloskey Indonesian Sub-bit FOB Index.
The combination of swaps and futures is designed to meet the needs of customers with a choice of instruments. The futures contracts are fully fungible with their corresponding swaps currently cleared by SGX-DC. Customers can enjoy margin offsets of up to 70% on calendar or inter-commodity spread trades between SGX API 8 CFR China coal and SGX IHS McCloskey Indonesian Sub-Bit FOB coal derivatives. These margin offsets are also applicable between swaps and futures.
