Economic & Markets Review PAKISTAN

Economy CPI during December 2016 clocked in at 3.7% Year-on-Year, lower compared to 3.8% in the previous month. On a month-on-month basis, CPI was down 0.65% in December as compared to an increase of 0.21% during November 2016 on the back of seasonal decline in food prices (down 2.2% MoM). Inflationary expectation is on the rise, with further impetus going forward likely from recovery in international commodity prices and as impact of low base effect normalizes. Other macro indicators also improved, where Large-scale manufacturing (LSM) increased by 2.4% YoY in October 2016. Private sector credit off-take continues to accelerate (up 13.7%YoY in November 2016 vs. 5.2% in November 2015) with impetus from Construction (+30%YoY), Textiles (+18%YoY) and Food (+14%YoY) sectors.

Equities Review In December, the KSE 30 rallied 14% on the back of surge in oil prices (8% MoM) after OPEC's decision to cut production. Another key catalyst that drove the market up was the divestment of 40% stake of the Pakistan Stock Exchange. The bid was won by a Chinese consortium. Average volumes in the market increased by 8% to 77 million shares per day and average daily traded value increased by 36% to $87 million per day. Foreigners (-$144 mn) were major sellers during the month as they pulled out money from emerging markets as the U.S. Fed went ahead with a hike in the interest rate. Mutual funds (+$120 mn) were major buyers during the month. OPEC's decision built in the expectations of a new normal for oil prices, instigating a 22% rally for E&Ps while banks surged on expectations of an earlier interest rate liftoff on account of rising inflation expectations. robust local liquidity in the market. Foods (+30.1%) was the best performing sector as the sale of EFOODS was finalized with FreislandCampina. The next best performing sectors were Utilities (+25.2%), Pharma (+23.7%) and Oil & Gas (+18.6%), which rose on the back of rising oil prices. Cements (+17.9%) also rallied as the sector gradually passed on the impact of higher coal prices. The worst performing major sector was Chemicals (+5.0%) as the government took back its decision to lower gas prices for industries.

Economic & Markets Review INTERNATIONAL

Emerging Markets While most emerging markets ended CY16 on a positive note, Chinese stocks continued to remain in trouble, bringing the MSCI EM Index down 0.51% MoM in December 2016. Consequently, the EM Index posted a limited 8.6% return in CY16, with the biggest drag coming from the Shanghai Composite index which ended the year 12.3% lower (-4.5%MoM in December 2016), primarily on the back of persistent foreign outflows from the market owing to Yuan's weakness. On the other hand, commodity linked EM markets ended the year making it to the list of top performing markets globally on recovery in global prices. While Brazil encountered some turbulence earlier in the month (-2.6% MoM) on slipping iron ore prices, it nonetheless ended CY16 36.7% higher. With 6% MoM return in December 2016, Russian equities recorded 25.6% gain for the year in CY16. Most Asian equities were also upbeat in the outgoing month with Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia stock markets rising 2.2% MoM, 2.9% MoM and 1.4% MoM respectively.

Developed Markets Developed market equities ended the year on a strong note (S&P/FTSE rising 2.3%/4.9% for December 2016) and crossed all-time highs, despite countering the fallout from political events and uncertain oil price outlook. Since November, the election of Donald Trump has encouraged equity markets in anticipation of lower regulations, heightened spending and accommodative policies fueling earnings growth in the US, underpinning a bullish run (S&P/DJIA returned 5.8/9.3% since November 2016). Additionally, the rate hike by the U.S. Fed, coupled with the OPEC and non-OPEC deal has buoyed markets globally where energy and financial sectors have led the rally.

Commodities

The OPEC and non-OPEC production cut deal reached at the end of November led to surge in crude oil prices in December. WTI, Brent and Arab Light prices rose by 7%, 13% and 21% respectively during the month. Prices of commodities in the petrochemical chain followed suit and rose across the board. Ethylene prices were up 10% during the month, thereby reducing the PVC-Ethylene spread. Moreover, Paraxylene prices were up by 8% during the month while PTA prices were up 4%, thereby reducing the PTA-PX spread. Middle Eastern Urea prices, which have historically been positively correlated to crude oil prices, were flat during the month (2.1%) as they had already surged sharply (13%) in November.

International steel prices also continued on an upward trend, with prices of Chinese cold rolled coil up 6.2%, Chinese hot rolled coil prices were up 5.8% and European scrap prices were up 6.7%.
