Will Green Shoots Flourish in U.S. and Latin America?
A new Secular Outlook Series Q&A with Josh Thimons and Lupin Rahman is available on pimco.com.
Will Green Shoots Flourish in U.S. and Latin America?
· The U.S. economy is much further along the road to repair relative to its developed market peers, but it is still dealing with an unsustainable fiscal situation.
· Latin America is closely coupled to the rest of the world. What happens in the U.S., China and Europe over the secular horizon is especially critical.
· Our secular investment outlook calls for a more defensive posture toward risk. In U.S. fixed income, this suggests positioning for alpha rather than capital appreciation. And given increasing differentiation across Latin America, investors should stay consistently aware of credit risks.

How Shinzo Abe could win the Nobel Peace Prize

How Shinzo Abe could win the Nobel Peace Prize
By James Clad and Robert Manning
A grand gesture will endear Japan to its neighbours, say James Clad and Robert Manning
Shinzo Abe has summoned the ghosts of nationalism in the Pacific. Neighbouring countries are worried by the Japanese prime minister’s revisionism concerning the historical behaviour of his country. The impact of this on Sino-Japanese relations tends to receive most attention in the western media. But there is also an increasingly fractious relationship between Japan and South Korea. Here, though, Mr Abe can and should make a bold move to dramatically improve his standing and transform the region.

Eco Analysis - UK economy shaping up for a strong Q2 (H. Amourda, B. Hilliard)
Very few data were released today. Spanish registered unemployment change declined by nearly 98.3k people ahead of the summer. In the UK, the BRC survey points to a rebound in sales in May while the construction PMI rose to 50.8 from 49.4 on the back of a strong jump in the housing component. On Wednesday, we expect the May services PMI to post some strong gains in Spain and Italy, while the divergence between the euro area and the UK should pause in May.
