The collective market view is that we are experiencing a moderate slowing: in China, due to Bk of China braking; in Japan, as expected, due to the tragedy; in the UK, sideways but with the threat of a lift over its head; in the EU, the reality of the periphery disassembling, only Germany and France packing the load; and finally, in the US, with manufacturing slowing, with signs of employment doing the same and with the reality of gasoline and Fed policy (lower $) smacking the consumer where it hurts.
We are not in a sweet spot at the moment; we cannot detect just where there may be a major flaw in consensus, just where resides the next opportunity for our clients. We’ve got a long weekend ahead, so plenty of time for thought.
