UBS On-Air: Paul Donovan Daily Audio 'Revision time'

04:25

Markets (at least bond and foreign exchange markets) tend to pay relatively little attention to data revisions. New but inaccurate information is valued more than delayed but more accurate information. Today’s Eurozone GDP revisions may be a little different because seven economists are forecasting a revision to a negative number. A negative number would allow for suitably apocalyptic, click-bait style reporting. In the real world, no one will notice the difference between 0.0% and -0.1%.

UBS On-Air: Paul Donovan Daily Audio 'Trade tales'

04:38

China’s May trade data had a fairly large drop in exports, attributed to weakness in exports to the US and Japan. This does not necessarily signal a sharp decline in global demand. Global demand patterns now favor services rather than goods (China is not a service exporter). Moreover, there was surprising strength in China’s first quarter export numbers, helping to boost the GDP numbers. Potentially the strength reported in the first quarter was at the expense of reported export data later on.

Decifra-me ou te devoro

15:36

Reza a lenda que a Esfinge do Egito dizia a qualquer um que a visitasse, "decifra-me ou te devoro”. Assim, o infeliz visitante não teria escolha a não ser resolver o quebra-cabeça, porque a alternativa era pagar com a sua vida. A nosso ver, a situação não é muito diferente no Brasil agora: a relação entre o governo do presidente Lula e o Congresso está sendo testada. Se o governo Lula for capaz de decifrar os enigmas do Congresso Nacional, o ambiente político pode melhorar nos próximos meses, potencialmente se traduzindo em um resultado positivo para os mercados. Considerando o risco-retorno das classes de ativos no cenário atual, acreditamos que é hora de aumentar o risco na alocação tática de ativos.

O Brasil pode se tornar a próxima Argentina?

17:31

Esta é a pergunta mais frequente feita pelos nossos clientes este ano. Esse seria um desejo fervoroso para muitos brasileiros – se estivéssemos falando de futebol. Mas, infelizmente, por "Argentina", eles querem dizer um país cujas políticas econômicas são consideradas inadequadas, no centro da qual está um déficit fiscal descontrolado que leva a uma inflação de três dígitos, baixo crescimento e taxas de pobreza secularmente crescentes. As propostas até agora do novo governo do Brasil nos dão confiança para prever que uma deterioração tão acentuada das finanças públicas do país é improvável. Explico o porque no Podcast!

Possiveis impactos da MP 1.171/23

Tudo em todo lugar ao mesmo tempo

17:52

Desenvolvimentos importantes estão acontecendo em diferentes partes do mundo, tudo ao mesmo tempo. Tudo isso pode impactar decisivamente os mercados nos próximos meses. A economia brasileira não é exceção, e vemos riscos crescentes nos próximos meses. A incerteza em relação à nova âncora fiscal está pesando sobre as perspectivas econômicas, incluindo as expectativas de inflação. Acreditamos que o BCB está aguardando mais clareza sobre essa reforma antes de se preparar para iniciar um ciclo de flexibilização.
