Japan: GDP outlook looks uncertain – UOB

FXStreet reports that Alvin Liew, Senior Economist at UOB Group, assessed the latest GDP figures in the Japanese economy.

“Japan’s 2Q 2020 GDP recorded an unprecedented contraction of -7.8% q/q (-27.8% annualized rate). Almost all major GDP segments (including private consumption, business spending, public consumption, net exports and private inventories) declined, except public investment.”

“Even as we factor a rebound in the second half of this year, earlier optimism of a robust recovery has now given way to a weaker one given the weakness in manufacturing and services PMIs and lackluster household spending recovery. Beyond the COVID-19, we see Japan facing significant challenges due to the worsening US-China relations, the tighter fiscal space for the government and greater reliance on the central bank to support the domestic economy.”

“Based on the significant downgrade in the 2Q GDP and a weaker 2H rebound projection, we now expect Japan full-year GDP to contract by a deeper 6.0% in 2020 (from -5.5% previously) compared to +0.7% in 2019. This already factors in a 2H rebound in the magnitude of +9.5% q/q SAAR in 3Q and 10.4% in 4Q, which translates into -8.0% y/y in 3Q and -3.9% y/y in 4Q. However, there are material downside risks to our 2H rebound as we still see significant uncertainty due to COVID-19 developments. On the other hand, the primary upside risk to the forecasts will be the successful and quick deployment of a vaccine against COVID19.”

Upozorenje o rizicima

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
