2 Eurozone GDP growth still slows gradually, but high uncertainty could take its toll GDP growth could grow by around 0.4% QoQ in 4Q18 as one-off factors ease, but lower global demand and high uncertainty are also weighing on activity. Hard data improved in October to halt previous signs of a marked slowing, supported by the strength of domestic factors. The improvement of retail sales is driven by lower inflation and higher wages, while the strong recovery of capital goods production suggests that investment growth should continue in coming quarters. On the other hand, exports edged up again in October to maintain the upward trend so far this year, but failing to support activity as in the last two years. A further worsening of confidence has extended to the service sector, as high and protracted uncertainty could be weighing on spending, although the PMIs fall in December has been exacerbated by protests in France and still weak demand for autos. This contrasts with a broadly steady composite indicator in Germany and improving confidence in Spain, but more worrying signs stem from the weakness in Italy. Beyond recent volatility, the Eurozone recovery seems to loose steam gradually, putting a slight downward bias to our growth forecast of 2% in 2018 and 1.7% in The sharp fall of oil Brent will shape inflation down in coming months clearly below the ECB s target in early next year, while core inflation is likely to trend upward very gradually. The ECB ends net asset purchases this month, but remains cautious about the future.

In contrast, growth rebounded in France and remained steady in Spain.
