Canada's employment likely to rise by 25k in December – TDS

Analysts at TD Securities are expecting the Canadian labour market to recover a portion of the 71k jobs lost in November, with employment forecast to rise by 25k in December.

  • "While outsized pullbacks in LFS employment are typically followed by mean-reversion, there are few instances where Canadian employment has fallen by this magnitude outside of the financial crisis.
  • The goods-producing sector should provide the main engine behind the recovery after shedding 67.5k jobs over the last two months, including 2.9% of all manufacturing jobs, and some stabilization within auto production along with positive NAFTA developments should help bolster sentiment in the industry.
  • Services should see more modest job growth, and we do not anticipate any impact from CN workers returning from strike. A partial rebound in employment alongside a modest pickup in labour force growth should allow the unemployment rate to edge lower to 5.7%, while wage growth should slip to a still-robust 4.0% y/y from 4.4% in November."

15:24
China posts weak inflation data – TDS

Analysts at TD Securities note that China's December CPI rose 4.5% YoY (market 4.7%, TD 4.8%), the same as in November.

  • "PPI fell more than expected -0.5% YoY (mkt -0.4%), but its fall was less severe than the 1.4% decline registered in November, suggesting that pressure on industrial profits will also ease.
  • Further signs of a waning impact of African Swine Disease (ASD) was reflected in the 5.6% m/m drop in Pork Prices in Dec (though prices were still up 97% y/y compared to a 110% y/y rise in November). This helped contribute to a 0.4% decline in overall food prices over the month. Core inflation remains well contained at 1.4% y/y in Dec.
  • We expect the impact of ASD to continue to wane, helping inflation to normalize in the next few months. In the meantime, the PBoC will likely maintain its path of targeted and incremental easing."

15:09
BoE seen ‘on hold’ for the time being – UOB

Lee Sue Ann, an economist at UOB Group, sees the BoE keeping its monetary policy conditions unchanged in the near/medium-term horizon.

  • "While it is premature to expect a rate cut from the BoE anytime soon, this bears closer attention amidst the weaker UK growth and inflation mix. In addition, the BoE is poised for a leadership change with Governor Mark Carney scheduled to step down after the Brexit process. Furthermore, a successful Brexit may well rnewe efforts to normalize monetary policy instead. As such, our current view is that the BoE will keep its policy rate unchanged at 0.75% for now".

Canada’s building permits unexpectedly drop in November

Statistics Canada announced on Thursday that the value of building permits issued by the Canadian municipalities fell 2.4 percent m-o-m in November, following an unrevised 1.5 percent m-o-m drop in October.

Economists had forecast a 1.0 percent gain in November from the previous month.

According to the report, the value of residential permits declined 4.0 percent m-o-m in November, as permits for multi-family dwellings plunged by 11.3 percent m-o-m, while single-family permits rose by 5.6 percent m-o-m.

At the same time, the value of non-residential building permits edged down 0.1 percent m-o-m in November, as a tumble in commercial permits (-13.5 percent m-o-m) offset gains in industrial (+24.5 percent m-o-m) and institutional permits (+24.9 percent m-o-m).

In y-o-y terms, building permits decreased 2.7 percent in November.

14:34
U.S. NFP likely slowed in December – TDS

Analysts at TD Securities are expecting the U.S. payrolls to slow again in the December report, mainly because of payback for exaggerated strength.

“Through the volatility, the trend has slowed from 200K-plus in 2018, but not dramatically. As noted, our 145K forecast for payrolls implies a 189K average for Q4 (assuming no revisions), which is above the 173K average for the first nine months of the year. The implication: The December reading could be even weaker without necessarily signaling a major slowing in the trend.

The trend in payrolls gains will probably be revised down a bit in the annual revision in early February, but monthly gains would probably have to drop to 100K or less for the unemployment rate to start rising.

We expect the unemployment rate to hold at 3.5% in the December report after dropping by 0.1 point in November. Our 0.3% forecast for the rise in average hourly earnings implies up 3.1% on a 12-month-change basis, identical to the November reading.”

Before the bell: S&P futures +0.34%, NASDAQ futures +0.58%

U.S. stock-index futures rose on Thursday, as tensions between Iran and the U.S. eased for the time being, while firming optimism about a U.S.-China trade deal put U.S. equity market back on track for fresh records.

Canada’s housing starts down 3.4 percent m-o-m in December

The Canada Mortgage and Housing Corp. (CMHC) reported on Thursday the seasonally adjusted annual rate of housing starts was at 197,329 units in December, down 3.4 percent from an upwardly revised 204,320 units in November (originally 201,318 units). That marked the lowest rate since May.

Economists had forecast an annual pace of 210,000 for December.

According to the report, urban starts decreased by 3.7 percent m-o-m last month to 185,934 units, as multiple urban starts fell by 5.3 percent m-o-m to 138,049 units, while single-detached urban starts rose by 1.1 percent m-o-m to 47,885 units. At the same time, rural starts were estimated at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 11,395 units, up 2.0 percent m-o-m.

U.S. weekly jobless claims fall more than forecast

The data from the Labor Department revealed on Thursday the number of applications for unemployment benefits fell more than expected last week.

According to the report, the initial claims for unemployment benefits decreased by 9,000 to a seasonally adjusted 214,000 for the week ended January 4.

Economists had expected 220,000 new claims last week.

Claims for the prior week were revised upwardly to 223,000 from the initial estimate of 222,000.

Meanwhile, the four-week moving average of claims fell 9,500 to 224,000 last week.

Canada: Housing starts and BoC Governor Poloz in focus – TDS

Analysts at TD Securities suggest that BoC's Governor Poloz will hold a fireside chat to discuss the economic outlook for his first public comments of 2020.

  • "The Governor will read an opening statement at 13:45 ET ahead of the moderated discussion, which will be followed by an audience Q&A with an official press conference to follow at approximately 15:15 ET.
  • On the data front, we forecast housing starts to slip to a 194k pace in December from 201k (market: 215k), which would be the first sub-200k reading since May. This followed a pullback in residential permit issuance though the second half of the year, although favourable weather conditions should limit the slowdown."

USD/JPY faces solid hurdle at 109.75 – UOB

FX strategists at UOB Group believe that USD/JPY has regained upside momentum and now faces a tough resistance at 109.75.

  • "24-hour view: The strong support highlighted at 107.50 yesterday was not threatened as USD dropped to 107.63 before rocketing to an overnight high of 109.24. The rapid and outsized surge appears to be running ahead of itself and further sustained USD strength appears unlikely. That said, there is scope for USD to test 109.35 first before the current upward pressure should ease. The major 109.75 level is not expected to come into the picture. Support is at 108.80 and a breach of 108.55 would suggest a short-term top is in place.
  • Next 1-3 weeks: While we held the view that the weakness in USD that started earlier this year is running ahead of itself and noted that the 'prospect for a break of the mid- to long-term support at 107.00 is not high', the manner by which USD rocketed after touching 107.63 yesterday (08 Jan) came as a surprise (note that the 161 pips range between 107.63 and 109.24 yesterday is the largest 1-day range in 4-1/2 months). The strong daily closing in NY (109.12, +0.64%) has shifted the near-term risk to the upside but the long-term 109.75 level is expected to continue to offer solid resistance (USD tried but failed to break this long-term resistance level a few times last month). All in, USD is expected to gravitate towards 109.75 and only a move back below 108.20 would suggest USD is not ready to tackle 109.75 just yet."

Global growth likely at 3.3% in 2020 – Standard Chartered

Analysts at Standard Chartered Bank are forecasting global growth at 3.3% in 2020, slightly higher than their 3.1% estimate for 2019.

  • "Structural drags in the 2020s include debt overhang, demographics and deglobalization.
  • Cyclical positives - lagged impact of global 'dovish wave' in 2019, fiscal support, likely improvement in electronics cycle, and likelihood of US-China trade deal in 2020 - should counter structural drags."

11:59
Focus on U.S. jobless claims and Fed speak – TDS

  • Analysts at TD Securities note the U.S. seasonally adjusting jobless claims data is especially challenging around this time of year, so they caution against extrapolating if the weekly reading is up or down significantly.
  • "If anything, we see downside risk this week.
  • The Philadelphia Fed will release its annual revision to the seasonal adjustment factors for its manufacturing survey; revisions are typically minor.
  • Fed Vice-Chair Clarida and Presidents Kashkari, Williams, Barkin, Evans and Bullard will be speaking throughout the day. The message will likely once again be that policy is on hold until there is a "material" change in the outlook."

NZD/USD expected to weaken further – UOB

FX Strategists at UOB Group see the NZ dollar depreciating further vs. the US. dollar in the next weeks.

  • "24-hour view: The rapid rebound in NZD that touched a high of 0.6672 came as surprise (we were expecting NZD to extend its decline to 0.6590). Downward pressure has more or less dissipated and the current movement is viewed as part of an on-going consolidation phase. In other words, NZD is expected to trade sideways, likely within a 0.6635/0.6675 range.
  • Next 1-3 weeks: As highlighted, NZD has found a short-term top and the current pullback could test 0.6590. Looking ahead, if NZD were to breach 0.6590, the pullback could extend to 0.0.6555. On the upside, only a move above 0.6690 ('strong resistance' level previously at 0.6730) would suggest the current downward pressure has eased."

11:19
BOE's governor Carney: UK economic growth has slowed below its potential

  • Global economy risks being trapped in a cycle of low rates, reducing policy space
  • MPC members are debating the merits of near-term stimulus
  • Limited space to cut bank rate would favour a relatively prompt response if evidence builds that weakness in activity could persist
  • Rebound projected in BOE forecast for this year is not assured
  • Early indicators since the election suggest that there has been some reduction in Brexit-related and domestic policy uncertainties
  • Says that BOE has equivalent of 250 bps of policy space and that QE, forward guidance and rate cuts are all still part of its policy tools

10:58
EM Asia: No broad based portfolio flows – ANZ

Khoon Goh, analyst at ANZ, points out that the news of the US and China 'phase one' trade deal boosted investor sentiment in December, but it did not result in broad-based foreign portfolio inflows into Asia ex-China.

"Equities benefited, with inflows recorded for the fourth consecutive month. But bonds saw outflows for the first time in eight months. For calendar year 2019, portfolio inflows totalled USD48.5bn, more than recouping the USD26.2bn of outflows seen in 2018. The US-China trade conflict may have faded as a headwind as we start 2020, but this is being replaced by US-Iran geopolitical tensions."

10:40
US: Manufacturing still a major concern, but services more resilient – ABN AMRO

According to Bill Diviney, senior economist at ABN AMRO, it has been a mixed bag of economic data in the US as of late manufacturing sector has weakened even more than we had anticipated, while the services sector is holding up rather better than expected.

"This divergence became more apparent this week, with the ISM manufacturing PMI falling to 47.2 in December - the weakest since June 2009 - while the non-manufacturing PMI recovered to a 4 month high of 55.0. As such, while the manufacturing sector has yet to find a bottom, the weakness has remained relatively contained, with services resilient. The latter is consistent with what payrolls and consumer confidence measures have also been telling us. Ultimately, the lack of a stabilisation in manufacturing keeps us from raising our below-consensus growth forecast of 1.3% for 2020 (consensus: 1.8%). And although some of the headwinds for the sector appear to be easing, there remain significant risks both to the stability of the 'Phase One' China trade deal, as well as potential new fronts in the trade war opening up - most significantly, with the US proposing retaliatory measures against France's digital services tax (and the UK potentially coming into the firing line when it implements such a tax in April). We also continue to expect weakness in manufacturing to eventually drive a renewed slowdown in jobs growth, thereby denting consumer confidence, consumption and the broader economy. However, the resilience of the services sector so far suggests that the risk is for growth to slow by somewhat less than we currently anticipate."

Eurozone unemployment rate remained at 7.5% in November

According to the report from Eurostat, the euro area (EA19) seasonally-adjusted unemployment rate was 7.5% in November 2019, stable compared with October 2019 and down from 7.9% in November 2018. This remains the lowest rate recorded in the euro area since July 2008. The EU28 unemployment rate was 6.3% in November 2019, stable compared with October 2019 and down from 6.6% in November 2018. This remains the lowest rate recorded in the EU28 since the start of the EU monthly unemployment series in January 2000.

Geopolitical concerns stabilizing – Danske Bank

Danske Bank analysts point out that yesterday's session proved a stabilisation in geopolitical concerns as the Iranian side emphasised that it does not seek war and President Trump downplayed the missile attack.

"The US clarification that the Iranian attacks had caused no casualties was important as it limits the risk of retaliatory measures that could trigger a full-blown war, which in our view is required for the conflict to have ramifications for the global economy. Trump did announce new sanctions on Iran but for markets this falls in the camp of possible retaliatory measures that indicate that the US is also backing away from an all-out conflict."

Germany's VDMA reports a 15% drop in engineering orders in November

Germany's engineering body (VDMA) said, in November, incoming orders in the mechanical engineering sector in Germany fell by 15 percent in real terms compared with the previous year. While orders from domestic customers fell by 15 percent, foreign customers ordered 14 percent fewer machines.

From the EURO partner countries 11 percent fewer orders came in, for the non-euro countries a minus of 16 percent is on the books.

"This means that the negative trend of recent months is continuing," says VDMA Chief Economist Dr. Ralph Wiechers. "When assessing the current figures, it must of course be taken into account that the bar for comparison with the previous year is still relatively high.

In the three-month period from September to November 2019, the decline in incoming orders amounts to a total of 10 per cent (domestic minus 12 percent, foreign minus 9 percent). From the EURO countries, the decline was minus 5 percent, from the non-euro area minus 10 percent.

China: Growth to stabilise in 2020 – ABN AMRO

According to Arjen van Dijkhuizen, senior economist at ABN AMRO, last year, the slowdown of the Chinese economy deepened due to the impact of the escalated trade/tech conflict with the US and previous financial deleveraging, combined with a specific drag coming from the car sector.

"We expect the 'Phase One' deal between the US and China reached last month (still to be signed formally mid-January) to be supportive, as it puts the tariff tit-for-that on hold, at least for now. The direct effect of the modest tariff reductions agreed will be small, but the truce will help to reduce (though not eliminate) uncertainty, limit downside risks and restore confidence. Combined with the filtering through of Beijing's piecemeal fiscal and monetary easing, we expect the car sector and overall industry to bottom out this year, contributing to a stabilisation in China's GDP growth. We expect the impact of the swine flu on CPI inflation to fade in 2020 and stimulus to remain 'piecemeal' rather than 'big bazooka', as the authorities still have to cope with longer-term constraints such as the need to keep overall leverage in check and prevent overheating of real estate markets. While our base scenario foresees stabilisation in the Year of the Rat, risks remain (particularly US-China tensions that make China's transition even more challenging, developments in Hong Kong and Taiwan and risks related to China's debt bubble and the rising number of defaults). For more background see our China 2020 Outlook, Growth to stabilise in the Year of the Rat, published yesterday."

China Vice Premier Liu He to sign phase-one trade deal with U.S. during visit next week

China's Vice Premier Liu He will visit Washington D.C. next week to sign phase-one of the trade deal with the U.S., the Ministry of Commerce said.

China's trade delegation, led by Mr. Liu will visit the U.S. from Jan. 13 to 15, Gao Feng, a spokesman of the commerce ministry said in a weekly briefing on Thursday.

The working teams of the two sides have kept close communication over the signing of the initial trade deal, Mr. Gao said without providing further details.

China will improve tariff policy on wheat, corn and other farm products based on rules of the World Trade Organization, which will not go against Beijing's plan to increase imports of agricultural products from the U.S., he said.

GBP/USD: Staying structurally constructive but don't expect a quick run towards 1.40 - CIBC

CIBC Research discusses GBP/USD outlook and maintains a structural bullish bias through the coming months. CIBC targets GBP/USD at 1.33 in Q1.

"Having seen Sterling rally around 13% since no-deal Brexit fears peaked in early September, don't expect a quick run for GBP gains towards the 1.40 area, as the market refocuses on the narrow window for UK-EU trade negotiations. Removing election risk and adding near-term Brexit certainty to the equation is supportive for consumption, thereby easing concerns of BoE policy stimulus in H1 2020. However, trade negotiation headwinds still present a barrier to foreign direct investment in the near-term. As such, look for sub-trend growth and constrained investment inflows to slow the pace for further GBP gains in H1 2020," CIBC adds.

USD/JPY charts an outside day to the topside – Commerzbank

Karen Jones, analyst at Commerzbank, points out that USD/JPY charted an outside day to the topside yesterday and this effectively neutralises the chart.

"Overhead we have 2 downtrends. The first is the 2018-2020 downtrend at 109.50 and the second one from 2015 lies 110.27 and these maintain an overall bearish bias. Yet the market is clearly reluctant to break lower currently. Yesterday's low was 107.65 and failure here is needed to reassert downside pressure to the 106.48 October low and the 105.00 region. Only on a weekly chart close above the 2015- 2019 downtrend line and the December high at 109.72/110.27 (not favoured) would we question our bearish bias."

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.
