1 Global Headwinds? Tailwinds From China? be A Hurricane Too! Comments Prepared For Project Link New York Meetings, ober,
2 Global Presentation Chart Book, ober vvvvv World trade collapsing, and world industrial growth is pretty slow. Global GDP is stalling. Commodity price declines mean that producing economies lose income and import less from importing countries, and the income losses are reflected. First round losses are concentrated in emerging economies. In the end, all suffer. An historic slowdown or drop in world GDP is possible! - IMF Measure Of World Trade Value Global Exports In U.S. Dollars, Percent Change Year Ago (Right Axis, To e ) Red Line Is Year-Over-Year Growth Of World GDP (Left Axis, Yearly To ) IMF Measure Of World Trade Value Vs GDP Growth 7 World Exports In U.S. Dollars, Percent Change Year Ago, Right Axis World GDP, Percent Change Year Ago, Left Axis IMF Measure Of World Trade Value, Billions Of U.S. Dollars Developed Economy Industrial Production Index, = Monthly Data Through e 8 Data Through ust Using GDP Weights G-7 + Euro Zone G-7 + Euro Zone Ex-USA Page
3 Global Presentation Chart Book, ober vthe commodity price windfall that is restraining CPI in importing economies will disappear by uary, adding at least -/ percentage points to CPI-based inflation metrics. Inflation perceptions and expectations will rise. Bond prices are at risk as yields should rise and yield curves steepen with higher perceived inflation.

4 Global Presentation Chart Book, ober vvv China s economy is growing a less than its demonstrated potential rate of % per year. However, it continues to expand at 7%. China adds more to world GDP growth than any other economy. This cyclical slowdown is not longer or deeper than those that came before. Demograhics drives potential growth. Exports are not helping, but national income is boosted by a widening trade surplus.

5 Global Presentation Chart Book, ober China seems to be managing its exchange rate to depreciate within a very well-defined trading range. The downtrend started after President Xi gained total control of the government. International reserves are falling at a $ trillion per year pace! Money is going abroad to fund China s trade-development projects like Silk Routes and AIIB.

6 Global Presentation Chart Book, ober vin the third quarter, China accumulated a trade surplus of $ billion. Add to that about $ billion per month of foreign direct investment flows into China, and also guess that FX reserves earned at least $ billion in coupon income. That total current account inflow of $ billion should have boosted FX reserves. Instead, reserves fell by $7 billion. Where did $8 billion go? Over the last months, current account inflows totaled $77 billion, but FX reserves decreased by $7 billion. Where did $. trillion go? Monthly Change China: FX Reserves, Billions Of U.S. Dollars Page
7 Global Presentation Chart Book, ober QE is not working in Euroland. Incremental bank lending has been only 9 billion in exchange for billion in bond purchases. The ECB s balance sheet is growing, buy msinly because banks are holding liquidity created by QE on deposit as excess reservers.

8 Global Presentation Chart Book, ober Economic recovery in the Euro Zone is tepid, although some improvement is apparent over the last year. A dearth of credit growth restrains demand. Output is depressed, still at levels last seen years ago never having regained what was lost in the 8-9 crash. Unemployment and slack are abundant: There are no inflation risks here.

9 Global Presentation Chart Book, ober Japan: The economy is doomed by its debt and its demographics. With a shrinking population, GDP will shrink but the national debt will not. Deflation is the companion of a shrinking population. No amount of QE can reverse it. It was obscured by sales tax rate hike and now it is back. The current account will blow out again very quickly unless oil prices fall again.

10 Global Presentation Chart Book, ober Japan: With a shrinking population, GDP must decline and prices must fall. Industrial output and GDP show plenty of slack. Investment spending is depressed and slowing. Japan needs people, not monetary easing or fiscal stimulus.

11 Global Presentation Chart Book, ober Canada: The oil price shock has loosened up some excess capacity, but utilization rates remain high overall. Rise in core CPI probably is due to currency depreciation, but expectations are affected just the same. Headline and core will converge early next year.

12 Global Presentation Chart Book, ober vcanada: Recovery from oil price shock has been slower than expected. Real wages never benefited from oil price drop. Domestic emand remains tepid, unemployment stll way above pre-crash lows. Trade balance and exports charts are still too ugly to draw. Manufacturing is showing only a slow pickup as exports rotate toward non-resource-sector goods and services.
