While investors have been fretting about rate hikes and quantitative tightening among the G7 central banks, one of the most important has been moving in the opposite direction. The Peoples Bank of China (PBOC) has been aggressively accommodative, which complicates the inflation fighting efforts by the Fed and its peers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
While the PBOC\u2019s different tack might be frustrating to its peers, for most of this century China had helped the central banks immensely. China\u2019s growth during the post-GFC period meant that the G7 banks\u2019 response to the crisis didn\u2019t have to be even more aggressive than they were at the time. Perhaps more importantly, globalization \u2013 or more specifically, China outsourcing \u2013 kept inflation under check for quite some time. \u201cLower for longer\u201d was enabled only because we were in an extended period of modest inflation abetted by business\u2019 ability to source goods and labor in China.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It seems quite clear that the latest bout of accommodation was spurred by the China\u2019s move away from its zero-Covid policy. The liabilities on the PBOC\u2019s balance sheet had been generally growing throughout 2022 even as quantitative tightening took root in the US. Yet we saw a spike of over 8% in December. On an absolute basis, this was the largest jump in the last five years, though it was exceeded on a percentage basis in December 2018. It is probably not a coincidence that a brief bear market in US equities ended around that time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The balance sheets are not the only measure of monetary accommodation that are moving in opposite directions. The PBOC\u2019s preferred monetary policy tool is modifying the reserve requirement at major banks. It is not a perfect match for Fed Funds rates, but a lower reserve requirement represents an analogous policy to a lower funds rate, and vice versa. China had been steadily ratcheting down the requirement from 17% to 12% prior to Covid and continued to adjust it lower in recent years even after the Fed began to hike rates. It is notable that the PBOC reduced requirements once again in December, going from 11.25% to 11%. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One effect of Chinese monetary stimulus is an increased demand for commodities. Easier monetary conditions could help to reinvigorate China\u2019s relatively moribund real estate market, which in turn would increase demand for key commodities like iron and copper. Speculators seems to expect this, with Dalian Iron Ore Futures trading steadily higher after a collapse in October when zero-Covid stresses came to a head. Much of the rally occurred even as the Remninbi appreciated, though the latest leg is being accompanied by a modest pullback in the currency. Remember that commodities are globally traded, so a push in one major economy will be felt across the globe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Source: Bloomberg One of the supposed benefits of international diversification is decorrelation. In theory, assets in different countries should move at different rates and even in different directions. In the reality of today\u2019s central bank-driven markets, we see all too many asset classes and regions moving in concert. A counter-cyclical China should be a benefit, not a problem. But with most major economies battling inflation at the same time that globalization seems to have peaked, if not begun to reverse, an accommodative PBOC could prove quite problematic for the Fed<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
