Hi everyone,
I just wanted to highlight that we have changed DB's official EUR/USD forecasts for this and the following years.
The year-end forecast is now parity (1.00) to be followed by 90 cents next year and 85 cents in 2017.
The rationale is a continuation of the Euroglut theme we have been talking about over the last few months: record European outflows to the rest
of the world on the back of a structural change to European asset allocation. In the piece below we argue that Europe has to transform itself into
a net creditor nation by buying a lot more foreign assets. We estimate this requires at least 4 trillion euros of additional outflows. In turn.
European buying of foreign assets is likely to mean global yield curves stay very low and very fiat - a new 'bond conundrum'.
Full piece is below.

Last year we introduced the Euroglut concept: the idea that the Euro-area's huge current account surplus reflects a very large pool of
excess savings that will have a major impact on global asset prices for the rest of this decade. Combined with ECB quantitative
easing and negative rates we argued that this surplus of savings would lead to large-scale capital flight from Europe causing a
collapse in the euro and exceptionally depressed global bond yields.
With European portfolio outflows currently running at record highs, this piece now asks: Can outflows continue? How big will they
be? The answer to this question is critical: the greater the European outflows, the more the euro can weaken and the lower global
bond yields can stay.
We answer the outflows question by modelling the Euro-area's net international investment position (NIIP). We argue that
Europeans now have to become net creditors to the rest of the world and that the NIIP needs to rise from -10% of GDP to at least
30%. As such, we estimate that Euroglut requires net European capital outflows of at least 4 trillion euros. This conclusion
leads to three investment implications.
First, we continue to expect broad-based euro weakness. European outflows have been even bigger than our initial (high)
expectations, so we are revising our EUR/USD forecasts lower. We now foresee a move down to 1.00 by the end of the year, 90
cents by 2016 and a new cycle low of 85 cents by 2017.
Second, we expect continued European inflows into foreign assets, particularly fixed income. Our earlier work demonstrated that
the primary destination of European outflows will be core fixed income markets in the rest of the world, and evidence over the last
few months supports these trends: most European outflows are going to the US, UK and Canada. These flows should keep
global yield curves low and flat.
Finally, we see Euroglut as continuing to constrain monetary policy across the European continent for the foreseeable future. Since
our paper in September central banks in Switzerland, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, the Czech Republic and Poland have all cased.
These countries run large current account surpluses. Through a unique mix of huge excess savings and structurally low yields, the
entire European continent will continue to he a major source of global imbalances for the rest of this decade.
