Emerging Asian bonds are becoming pricier, reducing their appeal compared to global counterparts if Donald Trump implements less severe tariffs than anticipated. Yield spreads for South Korea, the Philippines, India, China, Malaysia, and Indonesia are trading below their 12-month average, indicating higher valuations than other emerging markets like Colombia and Mexico.
The Thermoformed Plastics Market is projected to grow from USD 14.94 billion in 2023 to USD 24.61 billion by 2030, driven by demand in food packaging and healthcare sectors. However, challenges such as environmental concerns and competition from alternative solutions may impact growth. Opportunities lie in sustainable material innovations and advancements in automation and technology.
Reddit is intensifying its focus on international markets, particularly India and Brazil, to drive user growth and advertising revenue. With about half of its users located outside the U.S., the platform aims to enhance its appeal through AI-driven language translations and improved search features to better navigate content. The company sees significant potential in engaging local audiences, especially in rapidly growing markets like India, where topics such as cricket and Bollywood attract a large English-speaking user base.
The shipping industry faces a severe seafarer shortage, exacerbated by geopolitical conflicts and changing workforce priorities. With a projected shortfall of 90,000 trained seafarers by 2026, companies are hiring less experienced personnel, leading to safety concerns and inflated freight rates. The appeal of seafaring is diminishing among younger generations, prompting firms to enhance onboard conditions to attract talent.
S&P Global Ratings has revised the Philippines' credit outlook to positive, moving the country closer to achieving an 'A' sovereign rating. The long-term foreign currency debt rating remains at BBB+, reflecting the impact of fiscal reforms, enhanced infrastructure, and a supportive policy environment that have sustained strong economic growth over the past decade.
The return of President-elect Donald Trump could reignite trade tensions, particularly through potential tariffs on Chinese imports, which may impact global economic growth. However, UBS analysts believe Asia is better equipped to handle these challenges than during the 2018-2019 trade war, thanks to improved supply chain integration and a resilient growth outlook.While smaller, export-dependent economies like South Korea and Taiwan may face modest slowdowns, larger markets such as India and Indonesia are expected to remain less affected. Overall, the net impact on Asian growth is projected to be limited, with strong earnings growth anticipated in key sectors like artificial intelligence and greentech by 2025.
Budgeted salary increases across Southeast Asia for 2025 are projected to rise compared to 2024, with technology and manufacturing sectors leading at 5.8%. However, Singapore and Thailand are expected to lag behind the region, with increases of 4.4% and 4.7%, respectively, due to lower economic growth and inflation rates. The demand for skilled talent continues to drive these increases amid a competitive labor market.
Chinese electric vehicle sales surged, with 53% of new auto sales being plug-in vehicles in October, led by BYD. Solid-state battery advancements were highlighted, including new factories from Chery and Honda. Tesla expanded into the Philippines, while Hyundai unveiled the IONIQ 9, expected to be a hit in the US market.
