Monetary and Fiscal Stimulus At a Peak?

Monetary and Fiscal Stimulus At a Peak?

 

Weekly balance sheet data from the World’s major Central Banks show aggregate liquidity growth slipping a tad to 16% (3m ann.).

Western economies remain lacklustre, although encouragingly there are few signs of deterioration despite the recent lockdowns.

Liquidity provision soared to record highs in 2020 and there is more in the pipeline for this year – we estimate some US$6tr.

Recent policy actions suggest that policy makers sense this may be enough, especially when historically high fiscal provision is added to the mix.

The current stability in the liquidity data reflects this stance. That said, Central Bankers have made clear in recent policy statements that they stand ready to increase liquidity provision beyond what is already in the pipeline, if needed.

China and Emerging Market Liquidity December Update: China, The US Dollar and Emerging Markets

-
China and Emerging Market Liquidity Update: China, The US Dollar and Emerging Markets   Emerging Market Liquidity conditions improved noticeably in November 2023, according to the jump in our EMLI™ index to a reading of 55.1. This rise was underpinned by buoyant cross-border capital inflows from foreign investors (index 68.6); an impressive rebound in private sector liquidity generation (index 54.1), reflecting signs of firming commodity markets, and further signs of easing by regional Central Banks (index 63.7), noticeably China (index 72.1). This provides a solid base for prospective EM stock market gains in 2024.       See our latest published research, China and Emerging Market Latest GLI™ – December 2023   For further information, please contact us at research@crossbordercapital.com

-
Global Liquidity Update - December 2023: Devastation or Liquidity Deluge?   Our Global Liquidity Index (GLI™) hit 25.9 at end-November 2023. This step-up in the pace of expansion confirms the steady liquidity uptrend in-place since October 2022. It underpins the bull market in risk assets. Many remain sceptical of holding risk assets, nervous that the World economy is about to plunge into the dark abyss of recession. Yet, bull markets always climb a ‘wall of worry’ and this one may be no different.       See our latest published research, Global Liquidity Latest – December 2023   For further information, please contact us at research@crossbordercapital.com
