The recovery of 2020 global real GDP growth remains uncertain and will be conditioned on trade
developments and central bank support

The IMF downgraded its projection for annual real GDP growth, for a 5th consecutive quarter, by 0.2
pps to 3% for 2019 and by 0.1 pp to 3.4% for 2020 compared with July, versus 3.6% in 2018 and a
peak of 3.8% in 2017 post GFC (see graph below). The revisions were mainly due to the further
broadening of tariffs during recent months.
The deceleration between 2017 and 2019 can be mainly attributed to a slowdown in a number of
Emerging Market and Developing (EMD) economies (e.g. India, Brazil, Russia, Mexico, Turkey),
mostly due to idiosyncratic factors. Anticipated recoveries (or weaker recessions) in these countries
account for more than 70% of the expected pick-up in global GDP growth in 2020 (i.e. 0.3 pps).
Thus, unlike the synchronized slowdown in 2017/2019, the expected global economic recovery in
2020 is far from certain: Note that 2020 real GDP growth in the US and China is expected to be
lower compared with 2019.
Other factors accounting for the deceleration in GDP growth since 2017 were higher tariffs, new
trade barriers, uncertainty surrounding future international trade relations and geopolitics (including
Brexit related risks) as well as slowing domestic demand in China account. According to the IMF,
US/China trade tensions are due to subtract cumulatively 0.8% from global GDP levels by 2020
compared with a hypothetical no-tariff scenario, an impact partly offset by further monetary policy
accommodation. In the event, the IMF cited that in the absence of monetary policy support, global
GDP growth would be down by 0.5% both in 2019 and 2020.
Uncertainty in the Automotive industry has also contributed to the deceleration in global growth
deceleration (e.g. car production subtracted -0.04 pps from global real GDP growth in 2018, versus
+0.02 pps in 2017). Apart from pressures stemming from the international trade tensions, supply
disruptions from new emissions standards in the euro area and China (leading to supply bottlenecks
at testing agencies), lower Chinese demand for automobiles due to the expiration in respective tax
incentives and stricter regulations on peer-to-peer lending have weighed on the sector. Demand
side challenges are also evident (shifting consumer preferences towards decarbonization, evolving
car transportation and sharing options).
Looking forward, non-implementation of the pending tariffs and/or a rollout of those already in
effect would brighten the outlook. Overall, however, the IMF sees the net balance of risks as tilted to
the downside.
On the other hand, downside risks, inter alia, include: i) no dissipation of tensions in key emerging
and developing economies; ii) an escalation in trade tensions, combined with a broadening of them
to other fronts such as technology, possible barriers in international portfolio investment flows; iii)
geopolitical risks; iv) the weakness in global manufacturing spreading to the services sector; and v) a
no-deal Brexit. Regarding Brexit, the saga continues, and while the chances of a no-deal Brexit
appear less likely following the agreement between the UK and the EU on October 17th, PM Johnson
faces an uphill battle in Parliament (see Economics).

US retail sales data disappointed in September
US nominal retail sales ended Q3:19 on a weak note, with the
monthly outcome below expectations for the first time in five
months. Specifically, in value terms, the so-called “control group”,
as it feeds into the calculation for GDP (i.e. excluding autos, gas,
food services and building materials) was 0% (flat) on a monthly
basis, compared with +0.3% mom in August and consensus
estimates also for +0.3% mom. As a result, annual growth
decelerated to (a still robust) +4.8% yoy versus +5.2% yoy in
August -- the strongest performance since May 2018. Overall,
private consumption appears set for an increase of 2.6% - 2.7%
qoq saar in Q3:19, a still healthy outcome, albeit considerably
lower compared with the 6-quarter high of 4.6% qoq saar in Q2:19.
US manufacturing output was below expectations in
September
US industrial production was subdued in September, with the
annual pace of growth at -0.4% yoy. More importantly, the less
volatile manufacturing production (75% of total) declined by 0.5%
mom, below consensus estimates for -0.3% mom and compared
with +0.6% mom in August. It should be noted that the latest
outcome could, in part, be negatively distorted by the continuing
strike by the United Auto Workers union (which began in mid-
September -- output of motor vehicles and parts declined by 4.2%
mom in September). Nevertheless, manufacturing production
excluding motor vehicles and parts was also subdued (-0.2% mom)
in line with weak ISM-manufacturing data. Overall, the annual pace
of growth for manufacturing production stood at -0.9% yoy, the
weakest outcome since August 2016 and well below a peak of
+3.5% yoy a year ago.
UK: Agreement on Brexit was reached between the
Government and the EU, albeit the approval by the UK
legislature is pending
The EU and the UK reached a Brexit deal on October 17th.
Regarding the controversial backstop, Northern Ireland will now be
in a hybrid customs system, with no checks at the land border with
the Republic of Ireland. Different treatment (regarding excise
duties, VAT collection) for trading goods entering Northern Ireland
will depend on their final destination (EU, rest of the UK or
elsewhere). Notably, consent (by a simple majority) from the
Northern Ireland Assembly will be required at a later date. The
withdrawal agreement was subsequently put to the House of
Commons on Saturday, but MPs voted (322 in favor versus 306
against) to withhold support for the new deal until it had been
enacted into law. As a result, in order to comply with the Benn Act,
PM Johnson sent a letter to the EU requesting an extension of the
Brexit date to January 31st. The EU will now consider the request.
Note that all 27 EU states must agree to an extension. Overall,
while the latest developments suggest a reduced probability of a
no-deal Brexit, such an event can still not be completely ruled out.
UK labor market shows signs of fatigue
The unemployment rate in the UK remains at a relatively low
level, albeit the number of employed persons decreased in
August for the first time in circa two years. Specifically, the
unemployment rate was 3.9% in August, up slightly by 0.1 pp
compared with the multi-year low (since January 1975) of 3.8% in
the previous month. Importantly, the increase was due to
moderately reduced demand for labor rather than higher labor
supply. On the contrary, the labor force participation rate declined
by 0.1 pp to 63.8%. Indeed, employment decreased by 56k, versus
+31k in July and average monthly gains of +81k in 2019. Although
a deceleration in employment growth is not surprising in view of
labor supply shortages, which are common in tight labor markets
(as remains the case in the UK), the latest slowdown appears
closely related to the persistence of uncertainty surrounding the
economic environment. In the event, the UK Office for National
Statistics cited various external surveys that support that argument,
with the KPMG and REC UK Report on Jobs (respondents include c.
400 recruitment and employment consultancies) indicating that
total demand for staff (as implied by the number of job vacancies)
rose at the weakest pace since January 2012 in September, while
permanent hirings declined for a 7th consecutive month, as firms
await clarity regarding the Brexit. Meanwhile, the still tight labor
market conditions continue to feed through to strong wage
growth. Indeed, the annual growth of wages stood at +3.8% in
August, just 0.1 pp below the respective figure in July, which was
the highest since June 2008. Recall that the respective pace for CPI
growth was 1.7% yoy in July, suggesting continuing support for
private consumption from increased households’ purchasing
power.
Chinese GDP growth was slightly below expectations in
Q3
GDP growth in Q3:19 slowed by 0.2 pps to 6% yoy (consensus:
6.1% yoy) from 6.3% yoy on average in H1:2019, despite an
acceleration in economic activity in September. Specifically,
retail sales growth was 7.8% yoy in September compared with
7.5% yoy in August. Overall in Q3:19, retail sales rose by 7.6% yoy,
on average, versus 8.5% yoy in Q2:18, with that deceleration being
solely due to sales of automobiles (-4.3% yoy, on average, in Q3:19
| +5.7% yoy in Q2:19). Indeed, the annual pace of growth of retail
sales excluding automobiles was steady at +8.7% yoy. Industrial
production growth improved to 5.8% yoy in September, versus
4.4% yoy in August. Nevertheless, overall in Q3:19, industrial
production grew by 5.0% yoy on average, below the respective
pace in Q2:19 (5.6%). Finally, fixed asset investment growth was
broadly steady at 5.4% yoy in September and averaged 5.5% in
Q3:19 compared with 5.8% yoy, on average, in the previous
quarter. The deceleration was mostly due to investment in real
estate, which slowed to (a still solid) +10.5% yoy on average in
Q3:19 versus +11.3% in Q2:19. On the other hand, the average
annual pace of growth of manufacturing investment and
investment in infrastructure was broadly stable during Q3:19, at
2.8% yoy and 4.2% yoy, respectively, with the latter benefitting
from policy support.
Looking forward, consensus expects a similar pace of GDP growth
in Q4:19. According to the IMF (October World Economic Outlook),
Chinese GDP growth in 2019 will come out at 6.1% yoy and at 5.8%
yoy in 2020 from 6.6% yoy in 2018.

Quotes of the week: “So the motivation to find a pathway to
a (trade) deal comes from the fact that the world economy
is slowing down, we are in a synchronized slowdown… By
2020, tariffs already imposed or announced would shrink
global GDP by 0.8%. That is equivalent to the whole
economy of Switzerland”, IMF Managing Director,
Kristalina Georgieva, October 17th 2019.
Equities
Global equity markets rose in the past week due to positive news on trade
and Brexit, as well as supportive company results in the US Financial sector.
Gains were trimmed on Friday, following weak Chinese GDP data as well as less
optimism regarding a Brexit deal. Overall, the MSCI World index ended the week
up by 0.8% (+15% ytd), with emerging markets (+1.2% wow | +6% ytd)
overperforming their developed markets peers (+0.7% wow | +16.5% ytd). The
S&P500 rose by 0.5% wow, with Autos (+3.5% wow) and Banks (+2.7% wow)
leading the increase. The US Q3:2019 earnings season started on a positive note.
Specifically, Citi ($2.07 vs consensus for $1.95), JPMorgan ($2.64 vs $2.45) Bank
of America ($0.56 vs $0.54) and Morgan Stanley ($1.21 vs $1.11) recorded
better-than-expected EPS. Goldman Sachs was largely in line with consensus
($4.79), while Wells Fargo undershot expectations ($0.92 vs $1.24). Note,
however, that revenue growth was slightly lower than the previous quarter as
lending margins were tighter mainly due to lower interest rates and a flattening
yield curve, while some banks (e.g. JPMorgan) noted a cooling of the US
economy. Overall, out of the 75 companies that have reported results, so far,
circa 81% have exceeded analyst estimates. Note that analyst expectations for
EPS growth in Q3:19 stand at -4.8% yoy, from -0.4% yoy in Q2:19 and -0.2% yoy
in Q1:19. Regarding sectors, four of them are expected to report growth, led by
the Real Estate (+5.1% yoy) and Utilities (+4.7% yoy), while seven sectors are
reporting a decline, led by Energy (-40.3% yoy), Materials (-10.2% yoy) and
Information Technology (-10.1% yoy). On the other side of the Atlantic,
Eurostoxx was broadly stable on a weekly basis, with Banks overperforming
(+2.7% wow). Regarding the Q3 earnings season, EPS growth is expected at -
3.7% yoy from -2.1% yoy in Q2:19 and -2% yoy in Q1:19. Finally, the UK’s
FTSE100 index underperformed, declining by 1.3% in the past week, due to a
stronger British Pound (circa 70% of FTSE 100 companies’ revenue is earned
abroad).
Fixed Income Government bond yields rose on a weekly basis due to reduced “safe
haven” demand by investors. Specifically, the US Treasury 10-year yield
increased by 2 bps wow to 1.74% and 3-month UST Bill was broadly stable at
1.67%. As a result, the 10year/3month spread entered positive territory for the
first time since May (+9 bps), alleviating recession concerns. In the UK, the 10
year yield was highly volatile in the past week, conditioned on Brexit
developments. Overall, it ended the week broadly stable at 0.71%, albeit it rose
on Monday (+4 bps to 0.77%), on the back of renewed optimism on Brexit
negotiations. In Germany, the 10-year yield rose by 6 bps wow to -0.38%, while
periphery 10-year government bond yields were broadly stable (Italy: 0.93%,
Spain: 0.25%, Portugal: 0.20%). Corporate bond spreads rallied in the past
week. Indeed, US HY spreads declined by 8 bps to 402 bps, while their euro area
counterparts were down by 12 bps to 362 bps. In the investment grade
spectrum, both USD and EUR spreads were down by 4 bps to 118 bps and 106
bps, respectively.
FX and Commodities In foreign exchange markets, the British Pound appreciated by 2.6%
against the US dollar to $1.298, and by 1.3% against the euro to €/0.861.
The US dollar depreciated by -1.2% to $1.117 due, inter alia, to weaker-than-
expected economic data (retail sales, industrial production). Finally in
commodities, oil prices declined in the past week on the back of mixed
prospects for demand (global growth concerns) and an increase in US oil
inventories for a 5th consecutive week. Specifically, US oil inventories rose by
+9.3 million barrels to 435 million barrels for the week ending October 11th.
Overall, the WTI declined by 1.7% wow to $53.8/bbl and Brent by 2.5% wow to
$59.0/bbl. Gold was broadly stable in the past week at $1490/ounce. However, it
has declined by c. 4% from its September highs, due to positive news on the
“trade-war” front.
