    China’s official PMIs indicate that both manufacturing (47.8 in Dec’22 versus est.: 47 and 48 in Nov’22) and non-manufacturing (41.6 in Dec’22 versus est.: 45 and 46.7 in Nov’22) activity contracted much more than expected in Dec’22. Surge in Covid-19 cases and related restrictions were the key drivers. In the current year, investors will watch for signals showing the impact of rate hikes on respective economies, and spillover from slowdown in China. Another key question will be at what rates major central banks will peak their policy rates. To gauge the same, analysts await flash global PMIs, China’s trade data, Eurozone CPI and Germany factory order data, due this week.


    Global indices ended mixed. For the New Year, investors are expected to track Fed’s next move with respect to rate hike and remain watchful on growing signs of weakness in China’s economy. Dow Jones had declined by 8.8% in CY22 compared with an increase of 18.7% in CY21. Sensex on the other hand, edged up by 4.4% in CY22 (22% in CY21).

Members also acknowledged that while inflation has come down, policy makers will continue to stand on guard until it falls within the targeted 2% range. US ISM manufacturing PMI has contracted for the 2nd consecutive month in Dec’22 (48.4) from Nov’22 (49.0), falling to its lowest level since May’20. Although, price pressures have seen declining. Services activity in China, Australia and France too continues to weaken in Dec’22. Activity in Germany has recorded some improvement. Crude prices also remain under pressure, noting weak global demand.


    Barring Sensex and Nikkei, other global indices ended higher. Investors monitored Fed minutes with members reaffirming their resolve to lower inflation.

Sensex (1%) ended in red and was dragged down by sharp losses in metal and real estate stocks. However, it is trading higher today in line with other Asian stocks.

    Labour market in the US still remains tight with ADP employment showing that 235k jobs were added in Dec’22 versus est.: 153k and 127k in Nov’22. Services sector alone added 213k jobs, of which 123k were added in the leisure and hospitality sector. Initial jobless claims also fell by 19k for the week ending 31 Dec 2022, to 204k. These data points have resurfaced fears that Fed may have to keep monetary policy tight for a longer duration, thus increasing the risk of slowdown. Separately, price pressures in Eurozone seem to be cooling-off, with PPI down by (-) 0.9% MoM in Dec’22, led by (-) 2.2% decline in energy prices. Ex-energy, PPI was up by 0.1%. In Asia, Singapore is showing signs of stress with retail sales growth easing to 6.2% in Nov’22 from 10.3% in Oct’22.


    Global indices ended mixed as investors monitored news of tighter labour market which diminished hopes of any possibility of a pause by Fed. Asian markets closed in green with PBoC announcing new measures for lower mortgage rates for first time home buyers. Sensex slipped by 0.5% on the back of global cues and was pushed down further by losses in banking and IT stocks. However, it is trading higher today in line with other Asian stocks.

    Except Japan (lower), bond yields (10Y) rose elsewhere. UK (+6bps), Germany and US (+4bps each) 10Y yields gained the most. Yields reacted to stronger US labour market data (ADP employment and jobless claims), which suggests that Fed might have to keep rates high for long. India’s 10Y yield too rose, by 1bps to 7.33%, as oil prices increased. It is trading flat today.
