MARKET BRIEFING – LONDON OPEN 10.11.2015
The Organisation for Co-operation and Development in its latest update for Global GDP has cut its forecast from 3.0% to 2.9%.
The OECD has also raised fears that the slowdown in growth is now pushing the international economy close to levels which would signal a global recession.
China was highlighted as a main reason behind the drop off in GDP as it sighted that reduction in demand for imported commodities was affecting neighbouring Asian nations.
However, the OECD sounded more optimistic for 2016 and 2017 as it predicted a pickup in growth.
The OECD identified that stimulus measures were taken by China and other countries as the main reason why it predicted that there would be a bounce next year.
The OECD decided to add its say on the debate with respect to United States interest rates and called upon the Federal Reserve to go ahead with its expected increase in the Fed Funds rate this coming December.
A move to increase the US benchmark interest rate by 25 bp would be the first step in nominalizing the interest rate environment.
A December move by the FOMC would come at a time when there are real signs that the United States economic recovery is taking off.
These signs of positive growth were highlighted last Friday when the US Department of Labor Statistics published extremely strong Jobs Report with both the Non-Farm Payrolls and Average Hourly Earnings releases beating estimates by a wide margin.
