While high inflation is seen almost everywhere, the Chinese central bank, PBoC is more anxious about meeting the economic growth target.

Non-China Asian exports are still growing, but the pace of increase has slowed and will slow still further as key export destinations struggle with inflation, energy security, and rising recession risks. In year-on-year terms, the rate of overall export growth is now skirting single-digits again.

Asian Exports Are Softening

India's demographic advantage puts the country in a position to be one of the fastest-growing global economies—if not the fastest. India remains synonymous with entrepreneurship, especially for technology firms.

India: The Next China

India celebrated the diamond anniversary of its independence; could this be the year to seek out a “diamond in the rough” there? When digging below top-level figures, certain subsectors—like private sector banking—has enjoyed growth above headline numbers.

A multifaced response, including increasing interest rates, is needed to prevent an upward spiral of price expectations and rising capital outflows. China, Asia's largest economy, saw a significant deceleration in the second quarter as the zero-COVID policy prompted lockdowns for major cities and supply-chain hubs.

Asia's Economies Face Weakening Growth, Rising Inflation Pressures

The 2022/23 Union budget sets out the Indian government's estimate for the deficit in 2021/22 at 6.8% of GDP and projects the deficit falling to 6.4% in 2022/23. The importance of agriculture for India's inflation can't be overstated, and there is perhaps some good news lurking around the corner.

India: Banking On The Budget

The latest batch of official PMI data gave a nice boost to Chinese equities and also commodities. While China's supply-side stimulus allows to “mobilize” the official sector fairly quickly, it does not do much for small privately-owned companies.

China Growth: Brighter Prospects?

The most recent macroeconomic figures show that the Chinese slowdown is much more severe than expected and not only attributable to the Covid-19 lockdowns. It is easy to use the Covid-19 lockdowns as the reason for the weakening of the Chinese economy but that would be a gross simplification.

The Chinese Slowdown: Much More Than Covid

It has been a month since Shanghai entered into lockdowns due to the Omicron outbreak. Looking at the A-shares market, this is earnings season, and we continue to track the performance of key listed companies and engage with them, despite the lockdowns.

China's property sector is not a growth driver of the Chinese economy, but a growth passenger. China's fiscal system also created incentives for local governments to favor housing market development.

The Evergrande Crisis And Mainland China's Property Sector Risks

The ASEAN region has shown a strong rebound in manufacturing output during October. As a result of the severe negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and widespread lockdowns and travel bans, many ASEAN economies were in deep recession during 2020.

Australia has been in the news lately over its aggressive response to the pandemic. But the bigger Down Under story might end up being interest rates. With inflation soaring, however, it became harder to manage the country's increasingly unruly yield curve, and finally, the RBA just gave up and let the market decide how expensive short-term money should be.
