Greetings,
The United States:This version of the Phillips Curve is forecasting wages to be growing at over 3% annually a year from now.

The Eurozone: This chart compares the French composite output subindex (both manufacturing and services) with the nation’s GDP growth.

Emerging Markets: Here is the JPMorgan Emerging Market Currency Index.

Equity Markets: This chart compares the dividend yield with the “buyback yield” going back to 1871.

Credit: High-yield spreads have diverged from a corporate bank lending index shown below (loan demand minus tightening lending standards).

Rates: How did the Treasury curve behave during the previous Fed tightening cycles?

Global Developments: This chart shows the fiscal/monetary policy changes for major economies over the past three months (Argentina needs to be moved back into the “tightening” square).

Food for Thought: Traffic changes at top news sites over the past year (they forgot the WSJ).
