Source text - English Global equity markets had a positive month in November with the MSCI World Index rising by 3.2% in local currency terms and all the regions up over the month. Equities rallied on the back of positive macroeconomic data releases, improving earnings, falling recession risk, and tangible progress in the US-China trade negotiation. Global and US manufacturing PMIs stabilised, whilst the Eurozone and the UK disappointed in their latest readings. Although economic data generally remained soft, consumer confidence has showed resilience in spite of dwindling business sentiment. Eurozone consumer confidence rose, bringing it back above its long-term average and reversing October’s disappointing data. Markets also reacted well to a better-than-expected earnings season and US new orders and employment data were encouraging as well. Overall, improvements have kept investors and economists optimistic for a revival of the economy and helped quell recession fears. At the geopolitical level, US-China trade negotiations improved further with the “phase one” of a deal expected to be agreed by the beginning of 2020. The absence of any further escalation of tariffs as well as a generally positive rhetoric bolstered optimism. Meanwhile in the UK, the spotlight shifted to the upcoming general election on December 12th. Overall, November's rally was helped by positive headlines on the trade front and improved economic data.
Translation - Chinese 全球股市在十一月走出一波上扬行情,MSCI全球指数以美元计升3.2%,各地区指数也均呈上涨趋势。向好的宏观经济数据、居民收入提升、经济衰退风险降低以及中美贸易谈判取得实质性进展是推动全球股市回升的背后原因。全球和美国的制造业采购经理指数(PMI)趋向稳定,而欧元区和英国的这项数据却不尽如人意。尽管全球经济数据整体偏软,在商业愈发不景气的情况下,消费者信心仍然展现出较好的韧性。欧元区的消费者信心有所提升,超过了过去很长一段时间的平均水平,同时也扭转了这项数据在十月不尽如人意的下滑趋势。由于过去一个季度里超预期的收入水平,消费市场反应良好。美国的最新订单量和就业数据也呈现喜人态势。整体看来,全球经济的改善使投资者和经济学家对未来经济复苏持乐观态度,同时也消除了各方对经济衰退的担忧。从地缘政治层面来看,中美贸易谈判有了新的进展,双方有望在2020年年初达成第一阶段的协议。中美双方不再进一步提升关税,相关媒体报道总体上也较为正面,这也带动了各方的乐观情绪。与此同时,即将在12月12日举行的英国普选成为了新的本土焦点。总体来看,十一月全球股市的回暖得益于贸易方面的正面报道和经济数据的改善。

Source text - English Golf is a baby with only a few hundreds years of history under its belt in this 1000-year old city rich in heritage and personality. Like the people, the courses are a charismatic collection of beauty, brut force from prevailing winds whipping off the Irish Sea and hospitality only Dubliners can serve up. Locals love to chat, will welcome you into their club like a life-long member and set your compass straight with some helpful hints as you step foot on to the course. For the less hardy, Dublin’s courses provide a happy medium. Legendary links accessible by day trip so you can absorb the cultural candor of urban life. To really understand the fabric of the city you need to spend some time in a pub one evening. The great thing is this fits perfectly with some post game banter between your playing foursome, allowing you to relive the day and tell some stories over a “jar”. There’s 1000’s of pubs to choose from that will provide a window into the soul of the Irish people.

Source text - English Pivot the value in your prestige beauty offer
With a global pandemic bringing financial hardship to many consumers, prestige beauty brands need to bring a new sense of value to encourage people to invest in their products. While discounting is appealing, consumers better value unique, reliable products that comfort them and match their own values. The joy brought by a splurge on an exceptional item that does good will outlast the short gratification of a good deal. Meaningful items will uplift brand image during times of increased competition for visibility.
