Thursday’s winning trades mostly long JPY. Short AUDJPY (and other JPY crosses) continues to be the winning trade (as was the case over the whole of last week) with markets still fretting about China hard-landing concerns and ahead of Sunday’s March NBS release of the China manufacturing PMI. JPY strength meanwhile is variously attributed to end of fiscal year flows, lower Treasury yields, profit taking by winning longs and a whiff of safe-have haven demand amid weaker equity markets. US data contributed little to the fray on Thursday. Initial unemployment claims came in higher than expected at 359k but this was largely the product of benchmark and seasonal revisions going back to 2007 and which has raised the average level of claims. It has not influenced our forecast for next Friday’s March non-farm payrolls at +200k (market consensus currently +210k). Q4 GDP and the Personal Consumption component of GDP were both left unchanged at 3.0% and 2.1% respectively. Month/quarter/Japan fiscal year end flows remain a major talking point and may be key for Friday’s market’s.
US Personal Income and PCE of particular interest Friday. Though US bond yields are lower on the week (2s by about 3bps and 10s by 12bps) t still less than might be expected if markets fully believe the FOMC’s commitment to hold rates down at least until late 2014. The data-dependency of Fed thinking therefore remains obvious, and with that the FX market implications. While next Friday’s payrolls report is going to be very big deal in this respect, this Friday’s data is of interest. The February Personal Income and Spending data will be especially significant after the unexpected weakness in January’s PCE number in particular (only +0.2%). A bounce back in PCE is expected (+0.6%) with income seen at +0.4% (BNP is also +0.6% on PCE but sees Income softer at +0.3% partly due to reduced transfer (benefit) payments. Real PCE has been flat for three months, and if we do not see a meaningful real increase in March, this will be a warning sign that not only might recent employment market strength be unsustainable, but also that demand growth itself may be faltering. For the USD, weak number than enhance expectations for additional Fed action and confidence in the late 2014 low rates commitment should hurt the USD, unless the data is so weak as to engender a broader risk-off move. Chicago PMI is also due (small fall expected) and final Michigan CSI.
Spanish budget cuts, Eco Fin meeting main EUR-specific drivers Friday. In the wake of the somewhat disappointing overall outcome for Spanish PM Rajoy’s conservative party in last weekend’s regional elections and after Thursday’s general strike, the Spanish budget today will vie for attention with the Eco Fin meeting in Denmark. Announced budget cuts will be tested against the Rajoy government declared intent to hit a revised 5.3% budget deficit/GDP target in 2012 (a compromise agreed with the EC after Spain, almost before the ink was dry on the new fiscal stability pact, declared unilaterally that its 2012 deficit was likely to be 5.8% not the 4.4% originally agreed). From the Eco Fin meet, markets have been led to believe this will result in ministers signing off on a plan to combine the unused 240bn lending capacity of the EFSF with the planned 500bn capacity of the ESM. Anything short of this or the lack of unanimity on the proposal could therefore now prove unsettling for all things EUR.
