- Korean exports in the first 20 days of November maintained a respectable growth trend over October.
- Shipments to Taiwan and other key Asian economies were strong; they rose to the EU but fell to the US.

- Germany, Italy, Spain, Ireland, Finland and Portugal are most exposed to US tariffs on Eurozone exports.
- An increase in tariffs on all products to 20% would drive a 5-to-10% fall in EZ export revenue.
- The devil is in the detail, however, and targeted tariffs could make a much bigger impact on EZ exports.

Hurricanes weigh on single-family starts, but the underlying trend is flat.
Oliver Allen (Senior US Economist)US
- The "DOGE" target of $2T savings is ludicrous, but spending cuts could offset some of the tax cuts.
- Lower fiscal multipliers for tax cuts than for tariff rises and spending cuts also point to a small GDP boost.
- Seasonal adjustment will depress today's jobless claims data; expect a slightly rising trend this winter.
Samuel TombsUS
- Bank Indonesia paused rate cuts for a second straight month, keeping the BI rate at 6.00%.
- Governor Warjiyo cited concerns over the rupiah, in view of less-aggressive Fed cuts under Trump 2.0.
- We still see the BI rate falling to a terminal level of 4.75% by end-2025, with risks to the downside.
Miguel Chanco (Chief EM Asia Economist)Emerging Asia
- Japan’s headline export growth improved in October, thanks to demand from non-traditional markets.
- This was largely due to price effects, however, with real export growth weakening in October.
- China’s government has paved the way for early issuance of 2025 special bond quota to support.
Duncan WrigleyChina+
- Eurozone negotiated wage growth jumped in Q3, boosted by one-off payments in Germany.
- The Q3 leap in wage growth won’t faze the ECB, but it helps our call for a “small” 25bp cut in December.
- The EZ construction industry remains under the weather, despite some improvement in the surveys.
