Snowed in, but not frozen
Our monthly global chart book covers no fewer than 13 distinct global
capex cycles which collectively are the drivers behind Capital Goods
sector revenue growth. Our global composite lead indicator rose from a
rock-bottom -100 reading last month to a still weak -76 in the latest
reading. This is in line with our view that the Global Composite indictor
is likely to continue bumping along the bottom for the rest of H1 2009. It
is interesting, at least, to note that it was the China series which was the
cause of this month’s modest rebound. Given a more substantial stimulus
plan in the pipeline than most other major economies, there must at least
be a fighting chance that the market for Capital Goods in China could
continue to provide a pocket of resilience.
