This week's important schedule overview
The Federal Reserve's favored inflation indicator, October PCE data, is to be released.
The Federal Reserve may not see more signs of inflation relief before deciding whether to cut rates again in December. In particular, the core PCE price index, which the market is most focused on, is predicted to show a year-on-year increase of 2.8% in October.
After Trump won the presidential election, the Federal Reserve became increasingly cautious about rate cuts. As Trump promoted tax cuts and increased tariffs, Wall Street generally worried that inflation pressures would increase further in the coming year.
The Federal Reserve will release the minutes of the November monetary policy meeting.
At 3 a.m. on November 27, Beijing time, the Federal Reserve will release the minutes of the November monetary policy meeting. Economists at HSBC pointed out in a report that the minutes of the November meeting may show discussions by some decision-makers regarding the economic impact that the results of the U.S. elections may bring.
Money market pricing shows that investors currently expect a slightly higher than 50% probability of a Fed rate cut in December. From now until the end of 2025, the total rate cut is expected to be only 67 basis points.
Meituan announced its Q3 performance on Friday.
According to predictions from several brokerages, Meituan's expected revenue for the third quarter of 2023 is between 75.5 billion and 76.231 billion yuan, compared to 62.619 billion yuan during the same period last year, representing an annual increase of 20.6% to 21.7%. In addition, according to the expectations of some institutions, Meituan's net income for the third quarter is estimated to be between 2.4 billion and 3.502 billion yuan, compared to 1.217 billion yuan in the third quarter of 2022, representing an annual increase of 97.2% to 187.8%.
Citi pointed out that Meituan's adjusted EBITDA and adjusted net income for the third quarter may exceed market expectations, benefiting from seasonal support from tourism and in-store visits during the summer, with dining takeaway revenue expected to meet market expectations.
Nomura indicated that Meituan's takeaway revenue for the third quarter grew by 18% year-on-year, driven by a 19% increase in order volume. However, the average amount per order decreased by 3% year-on-year. In-store revenue increased by 34% year-on-year, and it is expected that the adjusted net income margin will decline by 16 percentage points to 33% year-on-year, influenced by promotional activities.
China's official manufacturing PMI for November will be released.
On November 30, the National Bureau of Statistics will release the PMI data for November. In October, the manufacturing Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) was 50.1%, an increase of 0.3 percentage points from the previous month, indicating a recovery in the manufacturing economic level.
It is noteworthy that historically, October often shows seasonal weakness in manufacturing due to holiday factors, but this October, the PMI exhibited an unusual increase. In this regard, Wang Qing, chief macro analyst at Dongfang Jincheng, stated that incremental policies boosted production speed, and the manufacturing PMI still has room for increase this year.
