MNI GLOBAL WEEK AHEAD: Eurozone Flash CPIs in Focus
MONDAY
Germany Ifo Survey: The March German Ifo survey is expected to hold steady around last month’s level of 91.1, whilst cooling by 0.7-points to 87.8 in the outlook indicator. Financial market volatility over the last weeks will likely be the key driver of cooling expectations. The Ifo Spring Economic Forecast expects a Q1 -0.2% q/q contraction as the economy continues to face headwinds of persistently high inflation and rising borrowing costs.
TUESDAY
France Manufacturing Sentiment: French manufacturing confidence is forecasted to edge down by one point to 103 in March, foreshadowed by the flash March PMI report which saw manufacturers’ one-year outlooks turn pessimistic for the first time since November.
Italy Consumer / Manufacturing Sentiment: March Italian manufacturing and consumer sentiment is seen steady at 102.8 and 104.0 respectively.
US Consumer Sentiment: US Conference Board consumer confidence will likely cool for a third month in March, with a 1.4-point move back to 101.5 pencilled in by consensus. Pessimistic forward-looking outlooks accounted for a weak February print, with the Expectations index signalling recession. Inventories data for February is also due.
WEDNESDAY
Germany Consumer Sentiment: German consumer confidence is projected to edge up by half a point to -30.0 in the GfK’s forward-looking April index. This would be a sixth month of improving sentiment. The indicator still remains deeply pessimistic. Government energy support has largely underpinned upticks in sentiment, yet with little effect on the propensity to buy subindex thus far, this is yet to translate into stronger spending.
MNI China Liquidity Index: The MNI March China Liquidity Survey is due Wednesday, after the February report suggested the PBOC act to keep financial conditions in China’s interbank market loose.
France Consumer Sentiment: French consumer confidence is expected to worsen in March by two points to the 2022 low of 80. Substantial strike action and civil unrest this month will likely drive the decline.
BOE Financial Stability Report: The Bank of England FPC’s biannual Financial Stability Report will provide insight into where the committee sees the stability of the UK financial system amidst recent market volatility, likely to reiterate continued robustness as alluded to at Thursday’s MPC rate decision.
THRUSDAY
Spain Flash HICP: Spain will kick off this month’s round of flash euro inflation data. Base-effects should see HICP cool by 1.8pp to +4.2% y/y, yet the +2.2% m/m jump currently expected by consensus highlights that short-term price pressures remain acute.
Eurozone Economic Sentiment: Eurozone consumer confidence was broadly unchanged in the March flash, inching down by -0.1 points. Albeit only minimal, if confirmed on Thursday this decline would break a five-month streak of improving sentiment for the bloc. Thursday’s release will give insight on consumer purchasing intentions for March, as well as overall economic confidence, which is projected to tick up by a marginal 0.1 point. Eurozone flash PMI data for March signalled a robust rebound in services activity, whilst manufacturing largely stalled.
Germany Flash HICP: After the usual slew of morning state data, German harmonised inflation is projected to rise by +0.8% m/m, whilst cooling by 1.7pp to +7.6% y/y. Keep an eye out for the MNI forecast following the morning regional data.
US GDP: The third US Q4 GDP estimate is seen confirming +2.7% q/q annualised.
FRIDAY
UK GDP Second Estimate: The final Q4 2022 GDP estimate will likely confirm a flat quarter for the UK.
Germany Retail Sales: A +0.5% m/m uptick in retail sales is anticipated for Germany in February, after the January contraction. Despite improvements in German consumer confidence, spending appetite remains subdued.
France Flash HICP: French harmonised inflation is expected to ease by 0.8pp to +6.5% y/y after the euro-era high recorded in February. Prices will likely continue to advance by +1.0% m/m on the month.
Germany Unemployment: The German labour market data for March is set to continue to reflect tight conditions, with the unemployment rate unchanged at 5.5%.
Italy Flash HICP: A +1.4% m/m acceleration in Italian harmonised inflation is eyed by consensus for March, with the headline print to soften by 1.0pp to +8.8% y/y.
Eurozone Flash HICP: Eurozone flash March HICP is forecasted to rise +1.2% m/m, whilst cooling by 1.3pp to +7.2% y/y, largely due to base effects of falling energy prices. Core CPI is likely to edge up again from the euro-era high of +5.6% y/y recorded in February. Flash PMI data largely alluded to cooling price pressures, yet the strong service activity boost continues to underline service-inflation troubles, underpinning hawkish ECB rhetoric.
US Personal Consumption / MNI Chicago Report: February data is expected to reflect a mild month for US personal income and spending, easing to +0.3% m/m growth for both measures in current forecasts.
The March Chicago PMI, produced by MNI, follows six consecutive months of contractionary activity. The data is due one day in advance of the strongly correlated ISM manufacturing index.
