The overall performance of the global economy has aligned with our forecast in 1H24 as the growth base has broadened, inflation has proven sticky and central banks cautious. However, momentum shifts into midyear raise new questions about what lies ahead. We believe that the course of the global expansion – and policy rates – is centrally linked to the willingness of a business sector with still high margins, but facing sluggish profit growth and high borrowing costs, to expand.

Vinicius Moreira and Tingting Ge join Nora Szentivanyi to discuss how the shift in China’s commodity imports away from the US have benefitted key commodity producers such as Brazil. Since the 2018 trade war, Brazil’s share in China’s imports has been growing, especially relative to the US performance. On the top of that, China has been importing commodities beyond what the domestic fundamentals would indicate. These factors are helping to keep demand for Brazilian products elevated, creating incentives for the local production, and making the trade surplus wider than otherwise it would have been.   This podcast was recorded on June 26, 2024.

After a consequential week on inflation, this week focuses on growth tracking. Global IP is on track for a bounce this quarter, as expected, but a softening in consumer goods spending raises some concern about sustainability. So too does a disappointing set of June flash PMIs. On balance, however, we still see solid support for an expansion that is already expected to moderate into the second half.
