- Florida payrolls fell modestly in October, suggesting that the national trend is running close to 100K.
- We are sticking to our forecast for a 250K rebound in November payrolls, consistent with a slowing trend.
- October's drop in housing starts was weather-driven, but the outlook for residential investment is dim.

- Eurozone headline inflation rebounded in October, and in November it will rise again a touch, to 2.3%.
- We see little in the EZ inflation data to justify a 50bp rate cut in December; we still look for 25bp.
- The ECB will soon need to answer questions about the neutral rate and the net effect of Trump tariffs.

- The MPC is forecasting private pay growth, excluding bonuses, to slow to 3.25% in Q4 2025.

- ...so we expect private ex-bonus AWE growth to slow to 4.0% in Q4 2025, with risks skewed up.

Samuel TombsUS
- We think the composite EZ PMI rose in November; the employment index is the main downside risk.
- Front-running Trump tariffs is an upside risk for the Eurozone manufacturing PMIs in coming months.
- Negotiated wage growth accelerated in Q3, but we doubt that markets will take note.
Claus Vistesen (Chief Eurozone Economist)Eurozone

- The BoE’s expectations survey is biased down, however, and YouGov expectations recently surged.
- Consumers are more attentive to inflation now; the MPC needs to be cautious as inflation rises in 2025.

- The collapse in Indonesia’s trade surplus in October was a let-down, but it is stable, seasonality aside…
- …This is thanks to a broad-based export recovery; India is a weak spot, but it rebounded last month.
- India’s trade deficit ballooned in October, but due mainly to oil imports, not a bump in real demand.
