Credit Suisse analysts continue to view China as the biggest source of macro risk. The Analysts say that despite a number of key macro indicators improving (PMIs, macro surprises), others have not. Three areas have deteriorated: the job offer to applicant ratio is at an all-time high (implying a shortage of manual workers); producer prices are falling (nominal GDP growth was just 7.9% in Q1); and, above all, property prices are now falling (real estate accounts for a fifth of GDP and half of bank collateral).
