1 September 9, 2016 i l US In July, real personal spending in the US increased by 0.3% month over month and real disposable income ticked up by 0.4% month over month. The personal consumption expenditure (PCE) deflator, which is the Federal Reserve s preferred measurement of the inflation rate, increased by 0.8% year over year in July. The core PCE deflator, which excludes food and energy prices, rose by 1.6% year over year, below the Fed s 2% target. The S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller 20-City Composite Home Price NSA Index gained 5.1% year over year in June, in line with the consensus estimate. Increasing home prices, housing starts and home sales all pointed to a healthy housing market. The US unemployment rate was unchanged in August, versus an expected drop of 10 basis points. Total nonfarm payroll employment increased by 151,000. The unemployment rate is within the Fed s estimated range of full employment, but the market perceived the job gains as insufficient for an interest rate hike. Europe The UK GfK Consumer Confidence Index rose by five points, to (7), in August, reversing the decline seen since the Brexit vote in June. The increase indicates that British shoppers are shrugging off the Brexit uncertainty. In August, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) in Germany rose by 0.4% year over year and the CPI in France rose by 0.2% year over year. Consumer prices in both countries have remained subdued due to falling energy prices. German retail sales rose by 1.7% month over month in July, above the consensus estimate of 0.5%. Latin America In the second quarter, Brazil s GDP fell by 0.6% quarter over quarter and by 3.8% year over year. The Brazilian economy has been affected by weaker commodity prices and a deteriorating job market. In July, Brazil s unemployment rate continued to rise, hitting 11.6%. Mexico s unemployment rate dipped to 3.8% in July and the labor force participation rate increased to 59.8% from 59.0% the previous month. Employment has been boosted by a shifting of the workforce to lower-productivity jobs in services, which, in turn, has limited real wage growth.

US: Healthy Personal Spending and Housing Market; Job Market Tepid In the US, real PCE in July increased by 0.3% month over month. The improvement reflected higher spending on autos, which was partially offset by lower spending on nondurable goods. Real disposable personal income ticked up by 0.4% month over month in July, reflecting increases in wages and salaries and personal current transfer receipts. Figure 2.

The PCE deflator, which is the Federal Reserve s preferred measurement of the inflation rate, ticked up by 0.8% year over year in July. The core PCE deflator, which excludes food and energy prices, increased by 1.6% year over year; the rate was below the Fed s 2% target but above the consensus estimate of 1.5%. The inflation rate indicated by the core PCE deflator was lower than that indicated by the core CPI released two weeks ago which may reduce the odds that the Fed will raise interest rates in September. 2
3 Gauges of home prices, housing starts and home sales all pointed to a healthy US housing market. The S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller 20-City Composite Home Price NSA Index showed a year-over-year gain of 5.1% in June, down from 5.3% in May but in line with the consensus estimate. Home prices continued to rise moderately, supported mainly by low mortgage rates. The healthy housing starts and home sales readings also point to a healthy housing market in the US. Figure 3. US: S&P CoreLogic Case-Shiller 20-City Composite Home Price NSA Index Jun 11 Jun 12 Jun 13 Jun 14 Jun 15 Jun 16 Source: S&P The US unemployment rate in August was unchanged at 4.9% for the third consecutive month, and was slightly higher than the 4.8% rate that had been expected. Total nonfarm payroll employment increased by 151,000 and the labor force participation rate in August was unchanged from July, at 62.8%. Job gains were seen in professional and technical services, financial activities and healthcare. The mining industry continued to see job losses in August. The unemployment rate is within the Fed s estimated range of full employment, but the weaker-than-expected job market has nudged investors to speculate that the Fed will hold off on a funds rate hike in September.

4 The UK GfK Consumer Confidence Index rose by five points, to (7), in August, after having declined in the wake of the Brexit vote. The increase suggests that British shoppers are shrugging off the Brexit uncertainty. Europe: UK Consumer Confidence Improved; Low Inflation in Germany and France The UK GfK Consumer Confidence Index rose by five points in August, to (7), after declining recently in the wake of the Brexit vote. The uptick in confidence was driven by a combination of historically low interest rates, falling prices and high employment. The big improvement suggests that British shoppers are shrugging off the Brexit uncertainty. However, the gauge has remained well below its one-year average of (1). Figure 5. UK: GfK Consumer Confidence Index 1 () (7.0) (1) (1) (2) (2) (3) (3) Source: GfK The CPI in Germany and France rose by 0.4% and 0.2% year over year, respectively, in August. Consumer prices in both countries have remained subdued due to falling energy prices. In Germany, the CPI rose by 0.4% year over year in August and was unchanged month over month. The low inflation rate was partly due to declining energy prices, which fell by 5.9% year over year in the month. France s CPI increased by 0.2% year over year in August and by 0.3% month over month. The increase was driven mainly by service prices, but falling prices in energy and manufactured goods served as a drag on inflation. Figure 6.

5 German retail sales rose by 1.7% month over month in July, above the consensus estimate of 0.5%. However, the sales figure decreased by 1.5% year over year, as there is one less shopping day in July this year. Figure 7.

The economy has failed to shrug off its recession amid a commodity downturn and a deteriorating job market. Source: Destatis Latin America: Brazil s Economy Faltering; Mexico s Job Market Improved In the second quarter, Brazil s GDP fell by 0.6% from the previous quarter. The decline was steeper than the 0.4% drop in the first quarter and was worse than the expected 0.5% decline. On a year-over-year basis, GDP dropped by 3.8%, which was worse than the 3.7% drop analysts had expected and versus a 5.4% year-over-year decline in the year-ago quarter. The Brazilian economy has been affected by weaker commodity prices and a deteriorating job market. Figure 8.

6 Brazil s unemployment rate continued to rise, hitting 11.6% in July, while Mexico s unemployment rate dipped to 3.8%. Brazil s unemployment rate continued to rise, hitting 11.6% in July, up from 11.3% in June. The July figure was higher than the consensus estimate of 11.5%. The deteriorating job market can jeopardize the economy if unemployment fails to stabilize. Mexico s unemployment rate in July dipped to 3.8% from 3.9% in June and was lower than the expected %. The labor force participation rate increased to 59.8% from 59.0% the previous month. The downturn in the energy sector has shifted Mexico s workforce into lower-productivity jobs in services; this explains the improvement in the unemployment rate, but the nature of the job gains is limiting real wage growth.
