There have not been any major changes in the global economy since the monthly report "Placeringsnytt" (Placement News) last week. China's growth is still below trend. A positive labour market trend in the US inspires confidence and Europe may be nearing the bottom of the business cycle.
China reported mixed figures last week, with a downward trend, which confirms that China’s economic growth remains below trend.

Last week was an off-week for stockmarkets. First quarter macro figures came in weaker than market expectations, which resulted in risky assets being sold and profits taken. Most stockmarkets did well in the first three months so there was quite a bit of profit to take. Slower economic growth statistics from China and recurring concerns about growth in Europe also contributed to market uncertainty.

Growth prospects are gradually brightening, but at the same time the forecast is that it will now take longer before inflation attains the target of 2 per cent. The repo rate needs to remain at a low level for a longer period of time to support the recovery to ensure that inflation rises towards the target. The Executive Board of the Riksbank has therefore decided to hold the repo rate unchanged at 1 per cent and to make a downward adjustment to the repo-rate path. Increases in the repo rate are not expected to begin until the second half of 2014.

The situation in Cyprus created significant concern last week and most markets tumbled. Cyprus is now getting its emergency loan of EUR 10 billion from the troika (EU, ECB and IMF) but with a pistol pointed to its head. The solution in Brussels was reached in the early hours of Monday and just hours before the European Central Bank’s deadline of stopping the flow of money to Cypriot banks.
