  1. Weekly Investment Report Sunday , August 13, 2017 Economic & Market News Reuters: According to a poll by Thomson Reuters, the US economic expansion will last at least another two years, and growth will not accelerate the way the Trump administration has predicted. US President Donald Trump's administration aims to boost annual growth to 3%, mainly through sweeping tax cuts but with the failure to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act, significant fiscal stimulus appears less likely and the economy has shown no signs of accelerating to meet that target. GDP likely grew at a 2.6% annualized pace in Q2, down from 2.7% in the July poll. But the trend has yet to break away from roughly 2%. The latest poll suggests 2.1% to 2.5% growth each quarter to the end of next year, slightly down from the 2.2% to 2.5% predicted the previous month. The modest outlook was still broadly explained by slower spending due to sluggish wage growth even though the economy is close to full employment. Inflation forecasts have remained lukewarm, with the Fed preferred gauge, the core PCE price index, not expected to reach the central bank's 2% target until the Q4 2018. Core PCE inflation was forecast to average 1.5% to 1.6% each quarter from here until the end of 2017. The poll also predicted the Fed would raise interest rates by 25 bps in October or December, taking the fed funds rate to a range of 1.25% to 1.50%. The Fed is expected to follow up with three more rate hikes of the same amount in 2018. Zawya: According to latest monthly report, OPEC forecasts higher demand for its crude in 2018 due to rising global consumption, and pointed to signs of a stronger oil market that suggest an OPEC-led production cut is getting rid of price-sapping excess supply. The deal is aimed at getting rid of excess stocks and in a sign it is working, OPEC said inventories in developed economies declined in June and have fallen by 87 mb compared to the five-year average since the cut started in Jan. OPEC also raised its forecasts for global oil demand growth in 2017 and 2018, saying consumption would rise by 1.28 mbpd in 2018, along with being upbeat about the global economy. The report showed the group's oil output in July came in above the demand forecast, led by gains in Libya and Nigeria, two members exempt from the cuts. OPEC said its oil output rose by 173,000 bpd in July to 32.87 mbpd, led by the exempt producers plus top exporter Saudi Arabia. The Kingdom told OPEC it cut output to 10.01 mbpd last month, from 10.07 mbpd in June, meaning its production fell back below its OPEC target of 10.06 mbpd. The figures mean OPEC has complied 86% with its output-cutting pledge, down from 96% initially reported for June but still high by OPEC standards. Supply is rising outside the group as well, although not quite as fast as OPEC thought. OPEC estimated supply from non-OPEC in 2018 would rise by 1.10 mbpd, down 40,000 bpd from the previous forecast, citing downward revisions to the US and Canada. Al Masah Capital: A set of disappointing regional earnings for the 2Q coupled with negativity on the global scene had its effect with a subdued performance in the markets last week. Four out of the eight regional indices ended the week up while the other four were down with the selling picking up speed towards the end of the week. Saudi Arabia came out on top of the gainers with a weekly rise of + 1.1%, followed by Egypt + 0.4%, Kuwait + 0.3% and Bahrain + 0.1%. Qatar was the worst performer of the week losing – 1.7%, followed by Oman – 1.3%, Abu Dhabi – 1.0% and Dubai – 0.8%. Crude oil is still maintaining its position around the USD 50 mark, with a modest decline of 0.6% over the week, yet it feels like a prolonged consolidation around these levels could be starting to take hold. With global risk spiking and regional markets falling in step, investors moved towards Gold as a safe haven, the commodity rising by 2.4% over the week and allowing its YTD positive performance to reach + 12.36%. The coming week will witness more earnings releases from companies in the region with EMAAR and Damac on tap, the global picture will be followed intently and thin volumes might exacerbate market swings.

  2. Weekly Investment Report Sunday , August 13, 2017 Economic & Market News (continued) Zawya: Moody's changed the outlook on Qatar's banking system to negative from stable due to the weakening operating conditions and continued funding pressures facing Qatari banks, amid a continuing blockade of the country by its neighbors. The outlook also captures the potential weakening capacity of the Qatar government to support the country's banks. Moody's expects Qatar's GDP growth to slow to 2.4% in 2017 from exceptionally high rates of around 13.3% recorded during the 2006-2014 period; however, it remains the highest in the GCC, driven by high levels of government spending in preparation for the FIFA World Cup in 2022. As a result, domestic credit growth will also slow to the 5%-7% range for 2017 and 2018, down from 15% in 2015. The gradual economic slowdown, combined with Qatar's ongoing dispute with some neighboring countries and continued challenges in the construction and contracting sector, will lead asset quality to dip slightly. Despite this increase, the NPL ratio will remain among the lowest in the GCC heading into 2018. Nonetheless, capitalization will continue to remain strong providing Qatari banks with substantial cushions to absorb losses. Moody's expects tangible common equity to increase to around 15.5% of risk-weighted assets by end 2018 from 14.4%, as of December 2016, driven by slower-than-normal credit growth and higher profit retention. Reuters: According to PBOC, China's forex reserves rose for a sixth straight month in July, underscoring Beijing's success in keeping money from moving offshore with some help from a weaker US dollar. Reserves rose USD 23.93 billion from the previous month to USD 3.081 trillion in July, the highest level in nine months, higher than economists' median forecast of a USD 15 billion gain and was the sixth month in a row of increases, the longest stretch in three years. Factoring in China's usual trade surplus, economists' estimate that some USD 18 billion to USD 27 billion of money left the country last month. Since persisting weakness in the Yuan caused a gush of outflows and a plummet in reserves starting two years ago, the central bank has been battling to turn the tide. It has tightened scrutiny of companies and individuals moving money out of the country and introduced a new "countercyclical" factor to confound market expectations in determining the Yuan's exchange rate. With the steady yuan exchange rate, purchases of forex by households and companies have become more rational. China's Finance Ministry last week unveiled new measures to better scrutinize overseas investment made by state-owned companies. Zawya: According to the Emirates NBD Dubai Economy Tracker Index (DETI), Dubai’s non-oil private sector continued to expand in July with output (61.0) and new orders (62.0) increased sharply in July, although the output index was slightly lower than in June. The DETI was broadly unchanged in July at 56.3, still signaling robust overall expansion. The latest index reading was above the long-run trend (55.2). By sector, the wholesale & retail industry (index at 57.9) was once again the best performing category, followed by travel & tourism (56.3) and the construction sector (54.8). Firms attributed the rise in business activity to favorable economic conditions and more projects. Employment growth was marginal however, despite the strong rise in output and new work. Market conditions remained competitive and firms reduced selling prices on average in July, although the decline was marginal with the output price index only a touch below the neutral 50 level at 49.6. The inability of firms to pass on rising input costs to consumers is likely a key factor behind sluggish employment growth. Business confidence increased from June’s 10-month low, but remained weaker than the overall level of positive sentiment recorded on average in the series history.
