Several hours ago
the Czech National Bank published its Global Economic Outlook for the
month of November. (Data cut-off date: 16 November 2012 .) The report is authored by the Monetary and
Statistics Department of the External Economic Relations Division, and is
available in either English or Czech.
The November
edition includes a focus article recapitulating the highlights of the annual
meeting of the Institute of International Finance (IIF) held on 11-13 October
in Tokyo, specifically 1) Japan in the global economy, 2) an introduction to the
“PriceStats” index from MIT, which compiles daily inflation statistics based on
data scraped from the Internet, and 3) a global outlook for economic activity
in 2013 (and for some regions 2014 as well) by IIF Chief Economist Phillip
Suttle.
For those looking
for a very concise (18 pp.) summary of data and mainstream analysis/forecasts
regarding GDP, inflation, and PMI in the major economies of the world (not
including the Czech Republic itself), as well as interbank interest rates,
exchange rates, and commodity prices, the monthly Global Economic Outlook
is likely to prove extremely valuable.
