Philippines: Inflation surprised to the upside in April – UOB
UOB Group’s Senior Economist Julia Goh and Economist Loke Siew Ting comments on the latest CPI release in the Philippines.
Key Takeaways
“Headline inflation jumped further to 4.9% y/y in Apr (from 4.0% in Mar), exceeding Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP)’s 2.0%-4.0% medium-term target range for the first time in seven months. The reading also surpassed our estimate (4.5%) and Bloomberg consensus (4.6%). It was again a broad-based increase in prices, led by higher fuel and food prices as well as electricity rates amid persistent weakness in Peso (PHP).”
“We believe that inflation will likely stay near the 5.0% level for the rest of the year as the Russia-Ukraine conflict lingers while China is still grappling with its COVID-19 outbreak. These two event risks alongside a more hawkish Fed will tilt inflation pressures higher amid elevated commodity prices, prolonged supply-chain disruptions, and weaker local currency due to narrower interest rate differentials with US rates. The ongoing petitions for a hike in minimum wage and public transport fare domestically will also lift inflation should they be approved. We reiterate our inflation forecast of 4.5% for this year (BSP est: 4.3%; 2021: 3.9%).”
“In view of broadening inflationary pressures, continued expansion in domestic economic activities and narrowing interest rate differentials with US Fed Funds rate, we stick to our BSP call for a 25bps hike in the overnight reverse repurchase rate to 2.25% by 2Q22. The next two Monetary Board meetings are scheduled on 19 May and 23 Jun.”

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.
