There were eighteen active projects that contributed to our sales in the second quarter. We also commenced pre-sales of two new projects, Zhengzhou Xindo Park and Jinan Xin Central, which contributed 17.7% to our GFA sales."
"We continue to make good progress with our development activity outside of China, led by our Oosten project in Brooklyn, NYC. Additionally, we are exploring opportunities to develop real estate related products and services that will complement our core real estate development portfolio in China, which include property management services and a joint venture with a cinema company for movie theater development. We believe such initiatives can attract greater interest and support for our projects as well as enhance brand visibility and our overall competitive positioning."

It appears that prices in the oil market will stay lower for longer, as traders and oil companies see the global glut of crude persisting beyond this year. Benchmark U.S. oil futures for September delivery are nearing the six-year low struck in March, but contracts for delivery in later years have taken an even bigger hit, with prices for 2016 and 2017 already trading below their March lows. Crude futures -0.3% to $43.76/bbl.

Kids are not going to be happy to learn the pool will be coming down early if I can't find a new pump
