The messaging from this week’s raft of economic data has painted an increasingly familiar picture of the global economic scene. Headline inflation is finally easing off its highs in large part thanks to ebbing energy prices. But last year’s high levels of inflation and the global trend toward tighter monetary policy that they sparked are now exacting a heavier toll on economic activity.
Where Now for Europe? – Featuring Special Guest George Buckley, Nomura’s Chief European Economist
In our podcast this week we discuss the European economic outlook with George Buckley, Nomura’s Chief European Economist. We home in on a number of topics including this week’s euro area inflation data, the broader outlook for the euro area and UK, as well as what needs to be done to repair some of the structural fault-lines. We touch too on the escalation of geopolitical turbulence in the Middle East and how this is challenging the status quo.
Elsewhere, in our Charts of the Week publication we focus on the following:
·    The policy rate consensus
·    The US labour market
·    Oil prices and geopolitical risks
·    Oil prices and productivity
·    De-globalisation pressures
·    Indebtedness and interest rates
