Macro Economic News 16 Feb 2019
A rally in domestic prices curtailed physical gold demand in India and
Japan, with interest in the precious metal lacklustre in other Asian centres. India's
cash-starved residential real estate market is set to get a boost from foreign
and domestic private equity firms, which are lining up big bets worth hundreds
of millions of dollars for the sector.
Negotiators made progress on a memorandum of understanding that could
serve as the basis for a deal that President Trump and Chinese leader Xi
Jinping could later finalize. Economic
data are usually noisy, but this week included an onslaught of negative and
often contradictory signals that made even seasoned economists scratch their
heads. Consumers’ outlook for the U.S. economy rose in early February as
American households absorbed the end of the government shutdown and the Federal
Reserve’s decision to pause its rate increases. Inflation moderated across the
board in China last month in another sign of lethargic domestic demand—one that
economists said gives the central bank more room to stimulate economic growth. Volatile
energy prices are holding down overall inflation in the U.S. economy, but
underlying price growth remains steady.
