J.P. Morgan Global Research

Economists from J.P. Morgan Global Research offer their analysis on the economic data, macro trends and monetary and fiscal policy impacting the world today.

Global Data Pod

Nora Szentivanyi, Vinicius Moreira & Tingting Ge. Despite a slowing in China’s headline GDP growth post-pandemic, Emerging Market (EM) commodity exporters have benefited from their ties with China. China has actively sought to stockpile commodities and relocate its supply chain away from the West towards EMs. China has also more than offset the loss of export market share in the West by increasing its presence in other EM countries. A further rise in US tariffs on China will hurt China growth and that of EM manufacturing exporters. But EM commodity exporters could be buffered if China doubles down on friend-shoring commodity imports. Going forward, China’s growth impact on the rest of EM will likely be determined by the evolution of trade tensions with the US as well as China’s policy response.

Global Data Pod Research Rap: EM-China dependency amid trade wars

Global industry is getting a boost from firming final demand. We are bullish for manufacturing in the coming months—to be supported by next week’s expected December reports on US retail sales and G-4 flash PMI readings. Central banks are still easing but the drivers have turned more domestic. Next week’s projected 25bp Fed cut would bring the 2024 easing cycle to 100bp, despite material upside surprises this year to both growth and core inflation forecasts. (The Weekender will return January 3; Happy holidays to all!)

Global Data Pod Weekender: Making a list, checking it twice

A number of elements of our high-for-long rate narrative will be tested by data and policy guidance this quarter. We will receive greater clarity on the direction of US policy where we expect the new administration to eschew extremes on trade and immigration policy while moving forward quickly on regulatory relief. Our expectation for a lift in global industry and firming in goods prices is already being challenged by a disappointing global mfg. PMI. On inflation we do not see a repeat of the past two year’s front-loaded price increases, but look for the persistence of sticky global core CPI gains.

Global Data Pod Weekender: Testing time

Sajjid Chinoy joins Nora Szentivanyi to discuss the outlook for EM Asian economies in 2025. The tech cycle upswing, underpinned by AI-related demand, has been crucial to the region’s resilience in 2024. While these tech tailwinds are likely to sustain, the regional outlook for 2025 is heavily clouded by a US-China Trade War 2.0. In contrast to the last US-China trade war, the rest of the region is more vulnerable this time around because activity is still much below the pre-pandemic path and the shock itself is likely to be more acute (potentially larger increase in tariffs with the transshipment escape-valve closed). Moreover, the policy space to respond – especially on fiscal – is more constrained this time. So the collateral damage on the region, while differentiated across countries, is likely to be larger than commonly presumed.

Global Data Pod Research Rap: Making Asia vulnerable again

Recent data support our long-standing view for resilient growth, elevated sticky inflation, and constrained central bank easing. The known unknowns around US policy reinforce these views but are also raising financial and macro risks that have both a directional and timing uncertainty.

Global Data Pod Weekender: The known unknowns

Jahangir Aziz joins Nora Szentivanyi to discuss the outlook for US trade policy, its impact on the rest of the world and how views on tariffs have evolved in the past month or so. Our 2025 outlook assumes that new tariffs from the Trump administration will be targeted at China. A clear risk to our baseline view is that increases in US tariffs will be more widespread.

Global Data Pod Research Rap: More Trump tariffs

Monday’s Inauguration Day in the US will not be a lifting of the policy fog that many are hoping for but rather just the start of a broad set of sweeping policy changes, the effects of which will take months (or longer) to understand. Still, a likely wave of executive orders will begin a period of busy policy and data tracking. Global industry looks to have perked up at year-end but the surveys remain depressed. Tracking the state of global sentiment as it processes the coming flurry of US actions will be particularly important as a leading indicator.

Global Data Pod Weekender: Let the games begin

While absent of immediate trade war, the start of the Trump administration brought little clarity to the US policy path ahead, and we do not change our key calls. Against this backdrop, the global economy is humming along with news supporting our call for global industry to perk up in the coming months. Among the many central banks meeting next week, the Fed (hold) and ECB (-25bp) will be a reminder of the stark divergence between these two economies.

Global Data Pod Research Rap: North America’s Fraught Tariff Adventure

In a week of news regarding ongoing resilient growth and still-solid inflation, our key call of a Trump-lite policy outcome this year is being severely challenged with the confirmation of 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico. Such an outturn would not only weigh more heavily on the global outlook but also undermine the US expansion given the centrality of the US’s most important trading partners. Amid a flurry of central bank meetings, we largely got what was expected.

Global Data Pod Weekender: Exceptionalism that disproves the rule

Bruce Kasman and Joe Lupton discuss how the activity data continues to show resilience, an encouraging development that will help weather the coming US policy storm. Whether it is enough to support the transition to the trade war is the central question. Regardless, even absent recession, the risk of an extended period of soft growth should also be a concern. One factor underlying this risk is a lack of potential policy offsets, particularly in the US where the Fed is likely to remain on extended hold.
