歐洲憂慮通縮來臨

        歐羅區首季GDP增長0.2%,低於市場預期,而持續低企的通脹率或成經濟增長絆腳石。近年歐洲經濟數據向好,而烏克蘭局勢持續緊張,引發資金從東歐流入歐羅區,令歐羅走強,加速通脹下跌。低通脹持續令市場憂慮通縮危機的來臨,因通縮使實質利率上升,不但加重歐洲政府及企業的債務負擔,更會加重區內消費及投資收縮,對企業盈利及經濟增長極為不利。

        近期消息指,歐洲央行執委普雷特將在6月5日的政策會議上,建議將主要再融資利率下調至0.15%及銀行存款利率降至負值。基於現在歐羅區經濟正在復甦,而利率又有進一步下調的空間,推行大規模的量化寬鬆(QE)或許並非必要。但用下調利率及針對性的貨幣政策來抵抗低通脹應是首要考慮。

        月底通脹數據成關鍵

        隨着減息的預期升溫,即將在5月底公佈的通脹數據將成為關鍵。從投資角度來看,筆者當然希望5月通脹率維持不變,甚至有所下降,以迫使歐洲央行盡快作出相應對策。展望下半年,筆者仍看好歐洲市場,預料放鬆貨幣政策能支持股票和債券價格持續向上。

Thanks for sharing. Good health. Good luck.          We are deeply and dearly loved and cherished. Jesus, God himself, suffered and died for us to pay for our sins. (We rebelled against God in our past.) God loves us with a greatest love. He will soon c reate a new and better world and live a simple life, like a hermit. God's new world is near. Repent. Repent means changing our mind about the present world and live a simple life, like a hermit. Help your families and people you meet everyday within your means. Know God. Read the Gospel. Pray to him. He has helped me a lot. He can help you, too.
