Incoming news is consistent with our forecast for a sharp downshift in global growth momentum as we turn into the new year. We expect the US to follow China in delivering a strong 7%ar 4Q21 GDP gain next week, but also post a sharp decline in December real consumption that aligns with the broader weakening in global consumer spending and sentiment into year-end (Figure 1). With case counts in Asia on the rise, the Omicron wave that disrupted the North American and European holidays is now set to depress spending during the region’s upcoming Lunar New Year celebrations. These indicators point to a synchronized slowdown that looks to generate the slowest global growth of the expansion. However, we maintain an upbeat outlook. Our current-quarter forecast of 3%ar growth is above potential and sandwiched between projected outcomes of stronger-than-5%ar global GDP growth in 4Q21 and 2Q22.
A number of judgments regarding the nature of the Omicron wave underlie this upbeat view. First, we expect the drag to be concentrated in the early months of the year as the variant spreads quickly. In addition, we anticipate its reduced virulence will combine with a more targeted policy response to limit supply disruptions. Our focus in tracking these views is on Asia. A significant behavioral shift toward caution is likely to take hold in the region as case counts rise. While this is not fully incorporated in our forecasts, we expect factory shutdowns to be limited and the gradual easing of bottlenecks now underway to continue. Evidence from Japanese automakers and China’s ports are thus far consistent with this view. With cases looking to have already peaked in the US and falling in the UK, a rebound in mobility looks likely toward the end of this quarter
