Global Economic Outlook and Strategy
February 2010
 Despite market nervousness over sovereign credit worries and tightening global
liquidity, we believe that global recovery is becoming more firmly entrenched.
We continue to make more upgrades than downgrades to our 2010 growth
forecasts across major economies, although as before the pattern remains
uneven – with Asia leading and Europe lagging. This month, we have
significantly raised our 2010 GDP growth forecasts for Canada, Japan,
Argentina, Poland and, especially, Russia. In addition, our 2010 inflation
forecasts are creeping up in several emerging markets.
 China has taken a strong start to removing stimulus in 2010, although we do
not expect the PBOC to hike rates until Q3. For the US, recovery is steadying
labour markets and boosting private income, but lingering credit strains hint
that the Fed will wait until much later this year to begin raising overnight rates.
For the euro area, we have revised down our 2010 GDP forecast for a third
consecutive time. The ECB is unlikely to hike its main policy rate this year.
 Chief Economist Essay (see page 6): While near-term global growth prospects
are improving, the medium-term outlook will depend on decisions on three
vitally important issues: US fiscal policy, FX policies of China and other highgrowth
emerging markets, and the EU/euro area sovereign debt crisis.
 We do not expect worries over sovereign credit among some EU countries to
derail risk assets in general. Nevertheless, after strong rallies, our strategists
believe investors need to be selective. Citi rate strategists argue that investors
should take market rallies as opportunities to set short positions in major bond
markets, most notably in US treasuries. Citi equity strategists continue to look
for a roughly 30% rebound in EPS in 2010, allowing global equities to grind
higher. Citi credit strategists are rather dubious about the risk/reward in
positioning for any rally in Europe, but more positive on US credit.
