In their view, there can be no doubts that if the crisis in Libya continues, oil prices will stay high. Moreover, the specialists think that even if the tensions in the Middle East ease it will encourage economic growth, which will eventually stimulate demand for oil. As Canada is the world's sixth largest oil exporter, J.P.Morgan is bullish on the Canadian dollar. The bank recommends waiting until after Tuesday, when Canada is discussing its budget to eliminate the event risk. Then the strategists advise to sell US currency and buy loonie at 0.99 expecting that the pair USD/CAD will fall to 0.95. Stop orders should be placed in the 1.0150 area. It’s necessary to remember, that the Canadian currency is highly correlated with the S&P 500 index, so loonie’s purchases mean betting on higher US stock market. J.P.Morgan, however, doesn’t worry about this saying that US stocks will rise as the American economy recovers. Chart.

Analysts at Deutsche Bank say that in the worst case Portuguese government will fail leaving the county without the leading power until April. This would mean, in its turn, that there will be no legitimate government to negotiate EFSF bailout terms. The specialists are sure that the country will be soon forced to ask for the external financial help. In their view, it’s necessary to take into account the high amount of funding Portugal will need in April. The bank points out that there’s the risk of the dangerous situation when the ECB has to buy very aggressively at any auction even though it's not permitted to buy the primary issuance that may fail at auction. Economists at JPMorgan Chase claim that Prime Minister Jose Socrates tried to reach a compromise with the opposition, but no progress was made. According to the bank, the odds that Portuguese government will fall this week seem to be high. The yield spread between 2-year Portuguese and German bonds added 20 basis points to 479 bps with Portuguese 2-year paper yielding 6.487%. Analysts at Mizuho Corporate Bank note that the huge bailout funds don’t resolve the euro zone’s debt problem that has to be treated at the root. In other words, the specialists suggest that the region’s fiscal consolidation will be necessary anyway no matter how much funds the EFSF disposes.

In 2012 Japan may either add 3% or lose 1%, it’s hard to make a clear forecast now. The specialists note, however, that the impact on the world’s economy isn’t going to be very significant. Morgan Stanley expects the earthquake to reduce the global economic growth in 2011 by 0.5 percentage point to 3.8%. The decline of Japan’s GDP may lead to about 0.25-0.5 percentage point, of the estimated cut to 2011 global economic growth, while the rest of the reduction reflects negative effects to other economies through goods and services trade, capital flows, financial system contagion and commodity prices. According to the economists, the world’s recovery won’t be derailed as conditions were relatively favorable before the crisis and the governments and central banks are ready to increase support for growth if needed. Among the other risks to the global growth there are surging oil prices stemming from unrest in the Middle East and Northern Africa, monetary tightening in emerging markets to stem rising inflation and contagion from euro zone’s sovereign debt crisis that spreads to the US and other developed nations.

Analysts at Royal Bank of Scotland claimed today that euro’s decline versus the greenback won’t last long as Spanish bond yields aren’t rising against benchmark German bunds at the same rate as Portuguese debt does. According to the specialists, if Portuguese Problems don’t spread to Spain, euro’s weakness will be relatively limited. Analysts at Societe Generale don’t seem so optimistic on the single currency. In their view, Moody's downgrade of Spanish banks, Portugal's failure to accept a more austere budget and the upcoming elections in Germany this weekend, which will harden the German position lead to the squeeze on EUR/USD.

internationallove Posted March 24, 2011 Author Share Posted March 24, 2011 "UK budget 2011: analysis of Osborne’s presentation"(2011-03-24) Chancellor of the Exchequer George Osborne presented yesterday UK 2011 budget. It’s necessary to note that the plans to conduct the huge fiscal consolidation were left intact, while the coalition government is now emphasizing its intention to stimulate British economic recovery. Let’s outline some essential points of Osborne’s speech. Forecasts: UK GDP is expected to add 1.7% in 2011, down from the previous forecast of 2.1%. Cuts: Fuel duty was cut: the tax on gasoline pump prices was lowered by 1 penny a liter, while the planned increase in line with inflation for a year was delayed. The amount a person can earn without paying tax was increased by 630 pounds ($1,024) to 8,105 pounds that means that most earners will get a 120-pound tax cut. For households: 10,000 people earning less than 60,000 pounds a year who are buying their first home will get 250 million pounds in interest-free loans. For corporations: Corporation tax will be decreased next month by 2 percentage points and then by 1 point cuts in each of the next 3 years. That will take it to 23%, the lowest level in the G7. How will all these cuts fit in the austerity plan? They are going to be compensated: Oil production taxes are raised: the supplementary charge on North Sea oil profits went up to from 20% to 32%. 30,000-pound annual charge on people domiciled elsewhere for tax purposes who have lived in the UK for 7 years will rise to 50,000 pounds for those in the country for more than 12 years. Effects and summary: Business groups welcomed the budget, saying the measures will help the economy overcome a slump in the fourth quarter of last year. The household incomes will still be on average about 1.5% worse than in May when Osborne became chancellor. The top and bottom deciles will suffer even more. So, it’s possible to see that the budget is oriented to the British population. Osborne tried to calm down voters concerned about deficit-reduction plans and a sluggish economy with money taken from oil companies, banks and the wealthy as he didn’t give up the plan to reduce the government’s expenditure. UK authorities made an attempt to find a compromise between the necessity to encourage the voters’ economic confidence and the need not to disappoint investors who want the deficit to be eliminated.

Pound went down from March 22 maximum at 1.6400 getting today below 1.6200. The analysts have different opinions on the prospects of bank of England’s rate hikes. Specialists at Brown Brothers Harriman underline that British authorities increased yesterday the borrowings forecast, while reducing the estimate of 2011 GDP growth from 2.1% to 1.7%. The analysts remind that the austerity plan is based on low rates. As a result, BBH believes that British central bank will have to keep the rates unchanged and that bearish pressure on sterling will strengthen. According to the bank, investors will soon realize that their expectations are exaggerated and pound will drop to $1.60. BNP Paribas, on the contrary, thinks that the Bank of England will take into account mainly the inflation level that reached 4.4% in February. The MPC member Andrew Sentence notes that inflation may overcome 5% level this year. The analysts think that the UK central bank will be forced to raise its inflation forecast and note that the possibility of potential rate hike in May has augmented. Chart.

internationallove Posted March 25, 2011 Author Share Posted March 25, 2011 "HSBC: ECB and BoE may repeat Japan’s mistake"(2011-03-25) European inflation broke above the ECB’s 2% threshold in December rising to 2.4% in February, while the British CPI growth accelerated last month to 4.4%, twice higher the 2% BoE target level. As a result, the European Central Bank announced about its readiness to raise interest rates and more and more members of the Bank of England’s MPC call for monetary tightening. Analysts at HSBC, however, claim that the central banks should take into account Japan’s unsuccessful experience in this field. In their view, the inflation threat may misguide the European monetary authorities and, as a result, the region’s economy may suffer like Japan did in the past quarter century. At the beginning of 1990s, the Bank of Japan increased its key rate in more than 2 times to 6% as the Gulf War pushed oil prices and inflation to 4.%. However, when inflation was soon eliminated the central bank has to cut back the rate to less than 2% by the end of 1993. According to HSBC, oil-price surge can create sometimes more deflationary than inflationary risks as it is squeezing spending power. The specialists warn that that’s what may be currently happening in Europe as crude oil approached maximum in more than 2 years above $100 a barrel. HSBC notes that among the longer term costs of the monetary policy mistake there are stagnation, deflation and economic underperformance. To receive evidence one must just look at Japan: the country has to keep rates at the record low, while its debt is twice the size of the nation’s economy.

On the one hand, there is the speculative upward pressure on yen due to the anticipation of the repatriation flows. On the other hand, Japanese officials have drawn the line in the sand to prevent further appreciation of the national currency. The specialists believe that this kind of mixed environment for yen is going to prevail for at least several months. The specialists, however, don’t think that Japanese currency will once more test the postwar maximums as it did on March 16 when it reached 76.31 yen. Wells Fargo says that 80 yen mark is certainly a psychological level below which the intervention risk is high. The economists are speaking not so much about the actions of other central banks, but about the efforts of both the Bank of Japan and the country’s Ministry of Finance. Judging from the degree of momentum at the market the pairs USD/JPY and EUR/JPY will be the primary crosses affected by potential intervention, though the Bank of England and the Bank of Canada have also sold yen. The strategists note that though the amount of the international participation probably isn’t very strong, it will send a strong message to investors indicating the high degree of the authorities’ commitment. The market has priced in about a 100 basis points interest rates hike over 12 month – quite significant pricing in – so it can be argued that there’s still some place for Euro to reflect the expectations. The problem is still in the European debt concerns. Wells Fargo believes that some of the euro zone’s indebted nations, especially Portugal, may soon need a bailout. As for Portugal, April is a very important month in terms of the debt’s refinancing. This could be the point where the forex market will come more in line with the fixed income market. It’s necessary to note that Portuguese bond market is still showing a significant amount of investors’ stress. It’s just the forex market that hasn’t paid much attention to the euro area’s debt problems so far. The specialists say that the greenback will be on the defensive due to the hawkish signals from the ECB and the Bank of England until the second round of the QE ends in June. Wells Fargo expects June to be an important threshold for the currency market. The transition from easing to neutral policy is going to be significant itself, even if the Fed doesn’t start hiking rates quickly. Chart.
