Core inflation Market-based inflation expectations% change year on year %, 5y5y inflation swap
Source: (Left) Bank of Japan, BLS, Eurostat, ONS, Refinitiv Datastream, J.P. Morgan Asset Management. CPI is the Consumer Price Index. Core inflation for the US is defined as CPI excluding food and energy. Core inflation for Japan is defined as CPI excluding fresh food and energy. Core inflation for the UK and the eurozone is defined as CPI less energy, food, alcohol and tobacco. Japan core CPI has been adjusted down by 2% from April 2014 to March 2015 to remove the estimated impact of the consumption tax hike over this period. (Right) Bloomberg, J.P. Morgan Asset Management. 5y5y inflation swap represents the market’s expectation of five-year average inflation, starting in five years’ time. Data for Japan starts in March 2007 due to data availability. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of current and future results. Guide to the Markets - UK. Data as of 31 December 2019.

This chart includes three measures of credit ranging from the narrowest – RMB bank lending – to the more extensive broad credit. Specifically, RMB bank lending is the sum of all loans made by the commercial banking system to domestic borrowers. Total social financing (TSF) is all funding to domestic borrowers that is not explicitly backed by the sovereign and thus includes bank lending, trust loans, entrusted loans, bankers’ acceptances, corporate bonds and equity financing by non-financial enterprises, asset-backed securities, loan write-offs and local government “special” bonds. Broad credit is total social financing plus all finance provided by local and central governments. Past performance is not a reliable indicator of current and future results.

J.P. Morgan Asset Management: Index definitions
All indexes are unmanaged and an individual cannot invest directly in an index. Index returns do not include fees or expenses. The S&P 500 Index is widely regarded as the best single gauge of the U.S. equities market. This world-renowned index includes a representative sample of 500 leading companies in leading industries of the U.S. economy. Although the S&P 500 Index focuses on the large-cap segment of the market, with approximately 75% coverage of U.S. equities, it is also an ideal proxy for the total market. An investor cannot invest directly in an index. The Russell 1000 Index ® measures the performance of the 1,000 largest companies in the Russell 3000. The Russell 1000 Growth Index ® measures the performance of those Russell 1000 companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values.

The MSCI Emerging Markets IndexSM is a free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure equity market performance in the global emerging markets.

The objective of the indexdesign is to divide constituents of an underlying MSCI Standard Country Index into a value index and a growth index, each targeting 50% of the free float adjusted market capitalization of the underlying country index. Country Value/Growth indices are then aggregated into regional Value/Growth indices. Prior to May 30, 2003, the indices used Price/Book Value (P/BV) ratios to divide the standard MSCI country indices into value and growth indices. All securities were classified as either "value" securities (low P/BV securities) or "growth" securities (high P/BV securities), relative to each MSCI country index.The following MSCI Total Return IndicesSM are calculated with gross dividends:This series approximates the maximum possible dividend reinvestment. The amount reinvested is the dividend distributed to individuals resident in the country of the company, but does not include tax credits.The MSCI Europe IndexSM is a free float-adjusted market capitalization index that is designed to measure developed market equity performance in Europe.
