Global

Inflation market trends were mixed this week (chart 1). USD B/Es continue to consolidate as oil prices have now moved broadly sideways for three consecutive weeks, while EUR B/Es gave back some of the pre-ECB gains; UK inflation continues to correct lower in the context of weak momentum in spot inflation, and the recent decline in EURGBP. The usual ripple effects from a significant drop in oil prices continue to weigh on global inflation sentiment: declines in business survey price indices, spot inflation as well as indicators of household inflation expectations, which maintain some downward pressure on forecasts. This backdrop argues against a significant recovery in B/Es for now, although with oil prices at current levels some normalization in inflation momentum can be expected into Q2, which should provide some support for valuations. We would remain generally neutral for now.

Cross-markets B/E spreads have recently seen some significant moves, with GBP B/Es underperforming from comparatively rich levels. UK inflation markets had first proved relatively resilient in the oil-led sell-off in B/Es since last summer, not least given the lower RPI sensitivity to oil. A relatively strong slowdown in ex-energy spot inflation momentum (chart 2), the decline in EURGBP, somewhat weaker economic data, as well as delayed policy rate hike expectations (via lower RPI-MIPs) have led to a correction lower in UK B/E valuations since last December. GBPEUR and GBPUSD B/E spreads are now below 3m (and mostly) 6m averages (chart 3). The exception is 30y GBP/USD spreads, which remain wide, but this is above all the reflection of the cheapness in 30y USD inflation, as suggested by 30y USDEUR B/E spreads three standard-deviations below 2y averages (chart 3), as well as by an unusually flat 10y30y USD B/E slope, especially when taking into account the level of B/Es. In 5y and 10y, GBPUSD B/E spreads have gone from significantly rich to somewhat cheap when benchmarked against trends in FX, oil, spot inflation and PMIs (chart 4); we would turn neutral from here—given the weak UK spot inflation backdrop (supermarket competition, utility bill cuts, downside risk to EURGBP), we would not be long GBP v USD B/Es for now.

EUR inflation watch

Euro area inflation fell to -0.6% y/y in January. The decline was mostly driven by energy, although food and core inflation eased as well (chart 1). German core inflation in particular was lower than expected, on the back of declines in package holiday (chart 4), education and health care inflation (clothing inflation as expected fell as well). The former is likely to have been exacerbated by monthly volatility (although the trend has recently been slowing as well; chart 4), while the latter two have led to a downward revision to the core inflation profile for 2015. Although only few other country details are available so far, recent data suggest that the underlying inflation trend remains weak and that the risks remain skewed to the downside of baseline forecasts. Downward pressure can be expected from indirect effects of past commodity price declines, and the January EC business surveys released this week showed a further easing in price setting intentions in the manufacturing, retail and services sectors (chart 3). Against that, improving trends in activity and credit indicators as well as the depreciation in the currency should provide progressive support for inflation in the coming quarters (see charts 5 & 6, as well as last week’s update). We see the risk of a further fall in core inflation in February, and expect headline inflation at -0.6%/-0.7% y/y.

EUR EUR B/Es across all markets and maturities tightened this week. Profit taking after the rally into the ECB decision as well as a lower than expected German January CPI were negatives. Economic data in general and credit data in particular continue to be encouraging, but January business surveys also highlight the ongoing divergence between activity data (improving) and price trends (declining). The latter underscores the risks of larger than expected indirect effects from the drop in commodity costs. Last week we argued that the ECB announcements were a triple positive for EUR B/Es: (i) the explicit linkage of the duration of the program to the inflation outlook should reduce downside risks (i.e. support inflation risk premia), (ii) the currency depreciation resulting from policy divergence should support inflation expectations over the coming few years and (iii) the inclusion of ILBs in the purchase program could be an additional flow support for bond B/Es; chart 3 shows that assuming total monthly government bond purchases of EUR42bn and a split according to relative market size would result in significant ILB demand relative to typical monthly issuance volumes. In any case, the market appears to have given little credit to (i) and (iii), with 5y5y B/Es retracing all of the gains recorded in the week into the meeting (chart 1), while swap-cash B/E spreads remain wider than one-year averages (chart 5). Looking at RV across sectors suggests that (ii) on the other hand seems to have been a support for valuations. 5y B/Es remain well above the levels seen two weeks ago (see 2y1y and 4y1y in chart 1), and have richened significantly v 2y and 10y (charts 4 & 2). With 1y1y and 2y1y valuations low relative to baseline inflation forecasts, 5y cash B/Es remain our preferred sector. Weakness in near-term spot inflation momentum remains however a significant headwind for now.

GBP The repricing lower of UK inflation valuations continued this week, with the rally in nominal gilts entirely driven by falling breakevens and nominal-real yield betas negative across the curve (chart 1). The main driver appears to be a re-assessment of the near-term inflation outlook following the decline in commodity prices, some renewed appreciation in the currency (chart 4), weaker than expected core inflation trends in recent months (see chart 2 in the ‘global’ section above), announcements of utility bill cuts and further supermarket discounts, a slowdown in economic (in particular housing market) data momentum as well as the related delay in policy rate expectations (leading to lower projections for MIPs inflation; chart 3). Evidence of the weak inflation backdrop this week has come from the January round of business surveys showing a significant drop in price setting intentions across manufacturing, retail and services sectors. We expect RPI inflation to fall to 1% y/y in the coming months. Supply in the form of the GBP3bn (GBP4.6bn cash) IL58 syndication may also have weighed on B/Es. Valuations across the curve are now between 3.5 and 4 standard-deviations below 1y or 2y averages (chart 2). At the shorter-end the sell-off has gone somewhat (about 10bp) beyond what was implied by commodities, the currency and spot RPI trends alone (chart 5). Still, we are reluctant to fade the cheapening, given the weak spot RPI momentum and negative inflation sentiment and remain neutral. The B/E curve has steepened over the past couple of weeks and now looks slightly less out of line with the level of B/Es; we would maintain a steepening bias for now, but see less upside from here. Cash has continued to underperform swaps in the context of bond issuance and inflation weakness, and swap-cash B/E spreads in 10y-20y are close to 1y wides (chart 6). We would have a preference for bond B/Es from here.

USD

The ten-year sector has cheapened this week in both real yields and breakevens, and looks less rich than it did a week ago. Some profit taking has probably contributed.

In the long end, 30s have remained cheap given the recent flattening of the breakeven curve. There will be a 30-year bond TIPS auction in February. We expect a $9 billion new 2/15/2045 issue.

In the front end, the 1/2016 TIPS appear cheap relative to our NSA CPI forecast, as the issue leaves the index at January month end. In our CPI forecast, we expect the headline CPI to post a 0.7% monthly decline in January, and the year-on-year CPI to be negative for most of 2015. In the intermediate sector, 5s look cheap, as long as oil prices remain stable or rise.

In the FOMC statement this week, the Fed acknowledged the recent substantial decline in market-based measures of inflation compensation, and that “inflation is anticipated to decline further in the near term.”

Mean-Reversion Trade?

The ten-year sector has cheapened this week in both real yields and breakevens, and looks less rich than it did a week ago. Some profit taking has probably contributed. One has to adjust the real yield spread and breakeven spread between the 7/2024 and the new 1/2025 ten-year TIPS when evaluating the spreads on a historical basis.

In the FOMC statement this week, the Fed acknowledged the recent substantial decline in market-based measures of inflation compensation, and that “inflation is anticipated to decline further in the near term.” However, policymakers held the view that inflation gradually rises towards 2% over the medium term, as the labor market recovers and energy prices stabilize.

(f) Risks to Fixed Income Positions

Macroeconomic fluctuations often account for most of the risks associated with exposures to instruments that promise to pay fixed or variable interest rates. For an investor that is long fixed rate instruments (thus receiving these cash flows), increases in interest rates naturally lift the discount factors applied to the expected cash flows and thus cause a loss. The longer the maturity of a certain cash flow and the higher the move in the discount factor, the higher will be the loss. Upside surprises in inflation, fiscal funding needs, and FX depreciation rates are among the most common adverse macroeconomic shocks to receivers. But counterparty exposure, issuer creditworthiness, client segmentation, regulation (including changes in assets holding limits for different types of investors), changes in tax policies, currency convertibility (which may constrain currency conversion, repatriation of profits and/or the liquidation of positions), and settlement issues related to local clearing houses are also important risk factors to be considered. The sensitivity of fixed income instruments to macroeconomic shocks may be mitigated by indexing the contracted cash flows to inflation, to FX depreciation, or to specified interest rates - these are common in emerging markets. It is important to note that the index fixings may -- by construction -- lag or mis-measure the actual move in the underlying variables they are intended to track. The choice of the proper fixing (or metric) is particularly important in swaps markets, where floating coupon rates (i.e., coupons indexed to a typically short-dated interest rate reference index) are exchanged for fixed coupons. It is also important to acknowledge that funding in a currency that differs from the currency in which the coupons to be received are denominated carries FX risk. Naturally, options on swaps (swaptions) also bear the risks typical to options in addition to the risks related to rates movements.
