Citable research brief

Core conclusion · Tlines extraction

Advanced economies showed broad September strength. Eurozone composite PMI reached 53.1, its highest since April 2023, with services output prices at 56.1 spreading the energy shock. Germany's composite rose to 53.8 and Ifo hit 89.9; France returned to expansion (51.2). UK PMIs held in expansion and BoE rate-hike odds rose. US composite PMI surged to 58.4, a five-year high, driving a sharp yield selloff: 30Y reached 5.53%, 10Y 5.23%. The US-China trade truce was extended two months to 10 January; Japan expects two more BoJ hikes by March 2027.

Key arguments

  • Eurozone activity strengthened in September on services, but input and output prices rose sharply, indicating the energy shock is spreading.
  • US PMI strength and hawkish Fed speakers triggered a brutal Treasury selloff, with 20+ bp moves and a weak 5Y auction.
  • The US-China trade truce was only extended by two months to 10 January, reflecting both willingness to avoid tensions and inability to reach a durable deal.
  • The BoE is increasingly likely to hike rates on persistent energy shock, while Japan's reflationism stance ends, leaving the BoJ freer to tighten.

Main risks

  • Energy price shock is spreading, keeping inflation pressure elevated in the eurozone and UK, which could force more aggressive tightening.
  • US diesel prices near all-time highs raise stagflationary risk; a potential US export ban would hit Europe, which relies on the US for 40% of diesel imports.
  • US-China trade truce expires 10 January without a durable agreement, leaving tariff and rare-earth supply risks unresolved.
