U.S. Pre-Market | Major European and U.S. Indices Rise Across the Board; Moody's Says Global Economy Will Not Enter Recession in Next Two Years

Luis de Guindos, Vice President of the European Central Bank (ECB), stated on Thursday (November 14) that the risk of recession facing Europe is very low; however, he urged governments across the eurozone to help revitalize the regional economy. As the European economy continues to languish, expectations remain for further monetary easing by the ECB. On Thursday, the euro fell to a new low against the U.S. dollar—1.0989—its weakest since October 10; however, unexpectedly positive German and eurozone economic data, coupled with remarks from New York Fed President John Williams that revived market expectations of Federal Reserve rate cuts, drove a rebound in the euro-dollar exchange rate. De Guindos noted that data indicate Germany narrowly avoided recession in Q3, yet overall eurozone growth remains below expectations, requiring close monitoring by the ECB. Without stimulus measures, authorities would need to confront the risk of ‘Japanification’—prolonged low growth and low inflation. Bank of America warned in a report that the Federal Reserve’s latest bond-buying program may entail substantial risks—and could even trigger the next financial crisis. In particular, the Fed’s use of quantitative easing (QE) while explicitly telling investors that “this is not QE” raises serious concerns. JD.com reported adjusted earnings per American Depositary Share (ADS) of RMB 2.08 for Q3, significantly surpassing the market expectation of RMB 1.22. Eurozone CPI rose 0.1% month-on-month in October, below the expected 0.2% and unchanged from the prior month’s reading of 0.2%. Year-on-year, eurozone CPI rose 0.7% in October, matching expectations. Analysts commented that although prices for services, food, and tobacco/alcohol surged 1.5%, energy prices fell 3.1%, causing the October monthly CPI print to miss expectations.
