    Global equity indices broadly inched down as Fed officials (James Bullard and John Williams) hinted that higher rates are likely to prevail in CY23 and CY24 as well, to bring inflation to the targeted level. They also ruled out the possibility of an immediate pause in the hike cycle. Even ECB President also hinted that upside risks to inflation remain, and peak might not be way past. In China, State Council will hold a press briefing about the development in Covid-19 situation where some easing in restrictions is likely. In another development, China’s Securities Regulatory Commission announced five measures to support the real estate market. On the macro data front, retail sales data continued to falter both in UK and Japan, indicating weaker demand conditions.


    Global stocks were roiled by unprecedented protests in China against the government’s strict Covid-19 policies. Hawkish comments from Fed officials James Bullard and John Williams also kept investors on edge. As a result, global stocks ended lower, with the exception of Indian stocks. Hang Seng fell the most by 1.6%, followed by S&P 500 which shed 1.5%. Bucking the global weakness, Sensex scaled a new high supported by gains in oil&gas and auto stocks. It is trading further higher today, in line with other Asian stocks.

    Global macro indicators showed signs of stress. Industrial production in Japan (- 2.6% against est.: -1.8%) and South Korea (-3.5% against est.: -1%) declined on a sequential basis in Oct’22. Even in China, both manufacturing (48 against est.: 49) and non-manufacturing PMI (46.7 against est.: 48) came in lower than expected and remained in contraction. This clearly reflected the impact of Covid-19 related restrictions in the region. Elsewhere in Germany and Spain, flash CPI showed slight signs of moderation. However, in UK, the BRC shop prices data provided discomfort with regard to inflation. Markets are bracing for Fed Chair’s speech for cues on terminal rate and on the domestic front Q3 GDP data will be closely watched.


    Global stocks ended mixed. Stocks in China and Hong Kong surged supported by expectations that the government may soon ease some Covid-19 restrictions. Hang Seng surged by 5.2%, followed by Shanghai Comp which surged 2.3%. US stocks ended mixed awaiting US jobs report and comments from Fed Chair. Sensex continued its bull run and rose by 0.3% to another historic high. Metal and consumer durable stocks rose the most. It is trading further higher today, in line with other Asian stocks.

  • 1 Dec 2022

    Key event has been Fed Chair’s speech which had a dovish bias. The speech hinted at smaller pace of rate hikes by US Fed going forward amidst hopes of soft landing for the economy and lagged impact of previous rate hikes. Thus, US 10Y yield fell by 14bps and DXY fell by 0.8%. As per reports, Fed funds futures are pricing in a terminal rate of 4.95% against 5.06% expected earlier. On macro front, US private payroll numbers indicated softening in the labour market. In China, the Caixin manufacturing PMI reading was better than expected at 49.4, albeit remaining for the fourth consecutive month in contraction. Another notable development has been softer tone on Covid stance by one of China’s official. On domestic front, GDP growth for Q2 came in at 6.3% which is slightly lower than our forecast of 6.5%.


    Barring Nikkei (lower), other global stocks rallied. Indication of slower pace of rate hikes by Fed Chair and easing Covid-19 curbs in some Chinese cities buoyed market sentiments. S&P 500 rose the most by 3.1%. On the other hand, Nikkei fell by 0.2%, weighed down by weakness in industrial production. Sensex rose by 0.7% to a fresh record-high, supported by gains in power and metal stocks. It is trading further higher today, in line with other Asian stocks.

    Macro data points globally showed elevated growth concerns. In the US, the ISM manufacturing data came in at 49, which is below expectation of 49.7. This was on account of slower growth in new orders and employment. In Germany, retail sales declined more than expected by 2.8% (est.: -0.5%). Even the flash manufacturing PMI was lower than expected at 46.2 (est.: 46.7) in Nov’22. Elsewhere, Asian stocks got comfort from China’s relaxation of Covid zero policies. Joining Fed President, Governor Michelle Bowman also hinted at slower pace of rate hike in the coming months, in her recent speech. On inflation front, PCE deflator in the US showed moderation (0.3% versus est.: 0.4% increase). In South Korea as well, CPI edged down by 0.1% against expectation of 0.1% increase in Nov’22.


    Barring US and UK, stocks elsewhere edged up. US stocks declined as ISM manufacturing PMI marked its first contraction since May’20. Other global indices found comfort from hopes that global inflation might have peaked. Sensex rose for the 7th consecutive session and ended 0.3% higher. Real estate and metal stocks picked up the most. However it is trading lower today, in line with other Asian stocks as investors await US jobs report.

    Global yields broadly closed lower. Dovish speech by US Fed was rippled across all economies and demand for sovereign securities increased.

It is trading further lower at 7.18% today, as expectation of softer pace of rate hike by RBI increased.
