1 FX & Markets Weekly Week 19/2016 DenizBank AG Economic Research Vienna, Austria

2 European Equities see outflows for 14 th week European equities saw USD 3,9bn in net outflows in week to May 11, EPFR data shows. This was the 14 th consecutive week of net outflows, the longest streak since February Also U.S. stocks saw outflows in 4 of the past 5 weeks (USD 2,2bn this week). Inflows were in fixed income as investment grade bond funds saw USD 3,2bn inflows, marking the 10 th straight week of net inflows. BIST stabilises after past week s shock The week ending May 6 saw the BIST 100 declining over 8% as the Turkish Prime Minister stepped down surprisingly. The index stabilized above key resistance levels and this week, and is still up over 9% year-to-date. The now attractive cross rates against the TRY will prompt foreign inflows so that we assume the sentiment is not going to turn bearish against Turkish equities. BoE stays put, warns of Brexit effects The Bank of England was unanimous in its decision to leave monetary policy unchanged, but Governor Carney warned of negative Brexit effects. UK Leaving the EU would give the BoE a challenging trade-off associated with weaker GDP growth and higher inflation. In its base case the BoE assumes the UK votes to remain in the EU. The accompanying inflation report gave little forward guidance on rates. USD remains vulnerable The series of weak economic data out of the U.S. is continuing and has caused the EUR/USD to reach even 1,16 in intraday trading on May 3. Currently, a lot of range bound trading with no clear direction is going on. Key resistance levels are 1,13 and 1,1430. AUD caught up in Dutch disease In the case of AUD, Australian May inflation falling from 3,6% y/y to 3,2% y/y, highlights the dilemma of commodityproducing countries caught up in the Dutch Disease. Australia's past commodity boom allowed high wage increases within the mining sector, but now as this sector consolidates, employment shifts from high-income to low-income sectors. Smaller wage increases do not only affect disposable income growth. Price expectations fall as well along with the shift in consumer behaviour. The RBA will take notice and is likely to accommodate monetary conditions further.
