摩根大通亚洲前沿周报聚焦巴基斯坦与越南10月通胀及能源价格动态。巴基斯坦整体通胀由9月的10.3%回落至9.6%,食品与住房价格走软、电费下调是主因,城市核心通胀降至7.8%;住房与公用事业通胀从12.4%降至11%,拉低整体通胀约0.3个百分点,但液化烃通胀飙升至69%,创四年多新高,此前巴基斯坦与伊朗边境关闭,导致液化石油气短缺。交通通胀升至28.6%,11月初数据显示汽油较10月均价下跌8.9%、柴油下跌3.7%,政府临时调整定价公式,并由炼厂让渡部分利润。摩根大通将全年平均通胀预测从9.2%下调至9.0%,预计到2027年6月回落至6.9%,重返5%至7%目标区间上沿。越南10月整体通胀持平于5.1%,低于市场预期,食品价格环比下跌抵消燃油上涨;制造业表现强劲,但动能趋弱,贸易顺差创纪录,美国301调查结果或于11月落地。
