US convergence with Europe raises doubts over dollar strength
Show Notes

In this week’s episode, our analysts discuss the latest business activity PMI numbers out of the G3 economies, which seem to be pointing to a convergence in economic performance between the US and its major peers. Matt, Enrique and Roman also give their thoughts on what to expect from next week’s European Central Bank meeting. While the economy in the common bloc has ground to a near standstill, communications from Governing Council members have been hawkish, and a change in rates in March seems highly unlikely.

Lastly, we discuss our view on the Chilean peso - one of the worst performing currencies in the world so far in 2024. Has the sell-off in the peso gone too far? Or is there room for an additional depreciation in the currency?
