US disinflation in early 2024 was uneven across spending categories. Services remained a source of persistent pressure, with shelter helping explain the latest strong consumer price reading.

Unusually large capital withdrawals from China suggested a change in how investors assessed geopolitical exposure after Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The February 2024 analysis identifies Latin America as a potential beneficiary of portfolio rebalancing. Less restrictive central banks and stronger international debt issuance could further support emerging economies outside China.

The recovery after COVID raised the possibility of escaping the weak growth and low inflation that followed the global financial crisis. By January 2024, renewed shortfalls relative to earlier growth paths suggested otherwise, particularly in China and Europe.

Real effective exchange rates can reveal conspicuous currency misalignments even before applying a full current account model. The January 2024 review uses this perspective to examine emerging market valuations and highlights Egypt, Pakistan and Ukraine as potential cases of overvaluation.

Emerging markets ended December 2023 with reported portfolio inflows of $29 billion. Debt attracted $18 billion and equities $11.1 billion, even as Chinese stocks recorded withdrawals of $3.4 billion.
