Datanotes Weekly Monitor
In one line: Grim, and little scope for near-term improvement.
- Our call for a September rate cut is hanging on by the skin of its teeth; can the August HICP save it?
- We doubt ECB doves will be able to push through easing in Q4 if the Bank stands pat next month.
- The game of chicken in French politics continues, with Mr. Bayrou’s government on the brink.
In one line: Still pointing to downside risks.
In one line: Germany fared worse than initially expected in Q2.
- German GDP fell by more than initially estimated in Q2, stung by falling investment and net trade.
- We still see inventories weighing on growth in H2, but a fall in imports is an upside risk for net trade.
- Look through the noise in EZ wage growth data for a trend of 2.5-to-3.0% year-over-year.
In one line: Down further below its long-run average.
In one line: Down again but up over Q2 still.
In one line: Resilient to the latest rise in US tariffs, despite hit to foreign orders.
In one line: Up, but output is still falling.
In one line: Only little signs of a hit from higher US tariffs.
In one line: Inflation will rise to year-end, but there’s still chance of an ECB rate cut in September.
In one line: Net trade in goods was a drag on GDP in Q2.
In one line: Q2 slowdown confirmed; industry partly to blame.
- EZ PPI inflation, ex-services, is stabilising just below 1%, but divergence among sectors is high.
- The trend in global energy prices points to continued deflation in EZ energy producer prices…
- …But food producer price inflation is sticky, signalling upside risk to consumer prices in this category.
In one line: Holding steady at a low level.
In one line: Stabilisation.
In one line: Down, in line with the fall in the sentix.
- Swiss GDP growth likely slowed sharply in Q2 from the 0.8% q/q read in Q1 led by tariff front-running.
- Hard data and surveys imply a print of around 0.2% quarter-to-quarter.
- Switzerland will enter recession in H2, even if “gold will not be tariffed!”.
- The ZEW confirms the message from the Sentix: investors don’t like the EU-US trade deal.
- Investor sentiment indices still point to a rise in the PMI in the coming months, but we doubt it.
- The EZ economy will struggle now that US tariffs have risen further.
- The shape of the Phillips curve is unstable over time, but its shifts are difficult to pin down with data.
- Data point to a flat PC in the EZ, and a high sacrifice ratio for the ECB, but only for demand-pull inflation.
- Our estimates of the NKPC support our broader call that EZ inflation will ultimately settle above 2%.
