MACRO HIGHLIGHTS
Credit Strategy - Early Morning Reid - Jim Reid Performance for equity markets has been strong with the Stoxx 600 now up +4% which is a marked turnaround from -3% of two weeks ago. Regionally it's the DAX (+7%) which leads the way (and ahead of the S&P 500 which is up +6%), followed closely by the peripheral bourses of Portugal (+6%), Greece (+6%) and Spain (+5%) with the FTSE MIB (+3%) lagging behind. European banks have staged a huge turnaround of late also and are now positing a +2% gain, which is an +11% or so swing from two weeks ago. It won't come as much surprise to hear that EUR credit has continued to remain well supported with EUR HY (+4%), EUR IG Non-Fin (+2%) and EUR Fin Sub (+2%) all in low single digit return territory and out-performing bunds. That said it's interesting to see that EUR credit has generally underperformed its US counterparts by a percent or so, reflecting the lower energy exposure over a period of a large rally in Oil prices (WTI +11%).

Europe - Global Economic Perspectives - Peter Hooper In the past five years, US Labor productivity growth has plunged to its lowest rate in more than three decades. This development explains why the US labor market has been on such a robust improving trend in the face of a disappointingly sluggish recovery in GDP. Details on page 8
FX Strategy - FX Daily - George Saravelos Following last month's ECB and Fed meetings, we pushed our EUR/USD parity forecast out to the end of the year, anticipating a period of stability in coming months. We see small upside risks to the euro following the ECB press conference today but little to change our medium-term outlook. Details on page 9
Asia Strategy – India Equity Strategy - Abhay Laijawala Over the past one week, 2 leading international weather forecasting agencies (Australian Bureau of Meteorology and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Admnistration, USA) have issued a La Niña watch for 2016. Both state that the 2015 El Niño event – among the strongest on record – is moderating and the probability of a La Niña event is rising. The Bureau of meteorology in Australia has assigned a 50% probability to a La Niña occurrence. Extended and strong El Niño occurrences (like the one we saw last year and which had likely been the key reason for the Indian drought) have generally resulted in deficient Indian monsoons and sharp drops in agricultural production.

MACRO HIGHLIGHTS
Japan Strategy - Japan FI Morning Memo - Makoto Yamashita Trading activity by investor type in March shows notable end-FY purchases by the insurers in the superlong sector. The insurers purchased a net JPY743bn superlong JGBs in March, which was 2.6 times more than the average of JPY282.8bn for the 11 months through February FY15. Net buying probably swelled because the insurers had been waiting until end-FY15 for yields to rise. We expect the pace of net purchases has declined again from April. Agricultural, forestry, and fishery financial institutions also bought a net JPY430.1bn superlong JGBs. The city banks made overall net purchases of public bonds to the tune of JPY952.4bn. Net purchases of JPY368.6bn superlong JGBs were a stand out, but this likely also included buying for amortization; we doubt the city banks sharply built-up risk after not doing so in February. In addition, regional financial institutions reduced net purchases of superlong JGBs to JPY79.1bn (JPY335.4bn in February) Details on page 11
US Economics - US Daily Economic Notes - Joseph LaVorgna The breadth of economic performance is generally a measure of durability. In other words, if the economy is generating broad-based gains, growth is more likely to be sustained. This is because the economy would not be relying on just one or two sectors to drive growth. We remain extremely cautious on the near-term economic outlook because the projected Q1 slowdown in real GDP was likely relatively broad based: Consumption, investment spending, housing and net exports are all anticipated to have slowed relative to their Q4 2015 growth rates. Unlike Q1 2015, when most of the weakness in output was due to a plunge in net exports that resulted from the West Coast port slowdown, there are no such excuses this year. In fact, the weather has been much better this year, as well. In the first quarter of 2014 and 2015, record cold temperatures afflicted much of the Midwest and Northeast, and could have weighed on factory sector output. Recall that many shipping lanes across the Great Lakes were frozen. If anything, this year's more "normal" weather conditions should at the margin have been a mild positive for growth. Instead, it appears the economy expanded by only 0.5% last quarter, which is extremely disappointing given the fact that output grew only 1.4% in the quarter before. Details on page 12

KEY COMPANY RESEARCH
ASIA Apple Inc. (AAPL.OQ),USD107.13 Hold Price Target USD105 Sherri Scribner: We remain focused on the long-term fundamentals for Apple, which suggest top-line growth will be more challenging going forward. While we acknowledge many will likely buy the stock on the "anticipation trade" into the iPhone 7 launch this year, we see slower smartphone sales, lack of growth at the high end, limited market share penetration in emerging markets, and elongating smartphone refresh cycles as key inhibitors to Apple's growth longer term. With valuation currently reflecting long-term growth challenges, balanced by expectations for a trade into the iPhone 7 launch, we view shares as fairly valued and maintain our Hold. Details on page 13 Asia FX Strategy Notes Perry Kojodjojo: The key takeaways are that the authorities are comfortable keeping the USD/CNY relatively stable for the time being, so as to (1) restore stability in order to calm market nerves about CNY depreciation, and (2) discourage further capital outflows. Given the new-found stability, China is unlikely to introduce more direct measures to manage flows, including a Tobin tax. Even if outflows pick up, the message we have is that a Tobin tax is not the first port of call for regulators. In the medium term, however, the authorities would still allow the CNY to weaken during a period of USD strength, albeit at a more gradual depreciation pace. This is to ensure that the RMB is not overvalued against the basket, and, given that corporates are a more appropriate hedge than before, some RMB flexibility can be permitted. The timing of this is tricky, since the RMB is very much a policy-driven currency. Most people with whom we have spoken expect the USD/CNY to remain relatively stable in 2Q and depreciation to resume only in 2H, when the USD outlook starts to turn, as the Fed resumes rate hikes. Given that the authorities are likely to manage RMB actively and that the USD outlook seems benign, we have closed our USD/CNH 6M call spread. Details on page 14 LATIN AMERICA Latam Airlines Mar Q 2016 Preview Michael Linenberg: We are projecting our Latam airline coverage universe to generate an operating profit of $405 mm in the Mar Q, which represents a 22.7% decline from the prior year. While fuel expense is estimated to fall 30.8% or $519 mm from a year ago, we are forecasting that the fuel tailwind will be more than offset by the decline in top-line (expecting a 12.5% or $795 mm decrease) as FX and a weak macro backdrop continue to pressure fares. In that regard, we project the industry’s yield (average fare per mile) to fall 17.6% y-o-y, representing a $1 bb headwind to industry profits, driven in large part by weak. Details on page 15 SOUTH AFRICA Bidvest (BVTJ.J),ZAR372.16 Hold Price Target ZAR358 John Kim-Sa: Buy to hold, tgt ZAR374 to ZAR358. Bidvest operates a diversified business model: while five of its 12 divisions account for c.70% of group profit, we highlight the diverse nature of these five major divisions. Collectively, Bidvest operates a mix of defensive business models that function in lower-growth economic conditions. We estimate that c.40% of group earnings come from non-rand currencies, providing a rand hedge. The challenge will be how the enterprise value evolves in the face of a separate Foodservice listing, raising the question of how the combination of other businesses could trade on a stand-alone basis; we move from Buy to Hold. Details on page 16 NORTH AMERICA Integrated Oils and Refiners
Ryan Todd: With crude oil balances likely to tighten through 2H16, and sentiment largely shifting constructive on both crude and the equities, we expect the market to look through what is likely to be a trough in qtrly results (high capex, low commodity), instead focusing on relative positioning into 2017 and the pace/magnitude of potentially increasing activity. Although we anticipate an emphasis on continued fiscal discipline, we expect signs of first-mover efforts by top-tier balance sheet/resource quality names (PXD) and an early road map into recovery for others. We favor quality multi-year outperformers (PXD, OXY), higher oil leverage plays (DVN, MRO, COP), and downgrade EOG to Hold. Details on page 17

Early Morning Reid Macro Strategy
Welcome to ECB meeting day, 6 weeks on from Draghi's policy bazooka. In the PDF today we've updated our
performance review chart to track global assets since this point. Of particular interest to us is where European assets
are in the mix. When we last ran this nearly two weeks ago returns for European assets had been relatively weak
post-ECB with many of the areas of the market Draghi had tried to help having underperformed. The last 14 days
have seen a marked turnaround in sentiment however and now all of the European assets we look at are back in
positive territory over the relative time frame. In bond markets Bunds have returned just shy of 1% with Spanish
bonds now catching up and matching on a total return basis. BTP's are just in positive territory (+0.3%) but have
underperformed with the Italian banking concerns. Performance for equity markets has been strong with the Stoxx
600 now up +4% which is a marked turnaround from -3% of two weeks ago. Regionally it's the DAX (+7%) which
leads the way (and ahead of the S&P 500 which is up +6%), followed closely by the peripheral bourses of Portugal
(+6%), Greece (+6%) and Spain (+5%) with the FTSE MIB (+3%) lagging behind. European banks have staged a huge
turnaround of late also and are now positing a +2% gain, which is an +11% or so swing from two weeks ago. It
won't come as much surprise to hear that EUR credit has continued to remain well supported with EUR HY (+4%),
EUR IG Non-Fin (+2%) and EUR Fin Sub (+2%) all in low single digit return territory and out-performing bunds. That
said it's interesting to see that EUR credit has generally underperformed its US counterparts by a percent or so,
reflecting the lower energy exposure over a period of a large rally in Oil prices (WTI +11%).
Perhaps of most interest to us today will be evidence of any logistical progress on the corporate bond purchasing
program (CSPP). Since the announcement date details for the program have been thin with the hope that today will
bring greater clarity around the potential size, split between primary and secondary markets and the finer details
around bond eligibility. It might still be too early to hear much though. A report from Michal Jezek in my team, which
we attach the link below to, shows that ECB eligible eurozone bonds initially outperformed post the ECB CSPP
announcement and in the two weeks or so after. However since then they have underperformed non-eurozone bonds
almost to the same magnitude. The turnaround has coincided with a higher beta global rally over the last two weeks
or so, so that's certainly helped the performance of the generally wider higher beta non-eurozone issues. We also
provide a list of the top and bottom 100 bonds by performance since the ECB announcement. See the report here for
more details. http://pull.db-gmresearch.com/cgi-bin/pull/DocPull/12462-B2E8/8583478/DB_Update_2016-04-
21_0900b8c08b0b6f5d.pdf
Outside of the ECB today the main topic for markets continues to be Oil which is clearly the dominant driver for price
action at the moment. Last night saw WTI close +3.77% at $42.63/bbl and so eclipsing the highest price for the year.
That means Oil is now just over +13.5% up from the post-Doha early Monday morning lows now, or nearly $5. It's
worth noting that we roll onto the June contract today which is currently trading around $44/bbl this morning (and
unchanged). Yesterday the early concerns from the announcement of the end of the Kuwait oil strike was quickly
forgotten about post the latest EIA data which showed inventory levels coming in lower than expected and which
appeared to be enough to fuel the rally. Later on we also saw headlines filter through suggesting that OPEC and other
crude producers could meet as soon as next month in Russia in a bid to restart production freeze talks according to
Iraq's deputy oil minister.

Global Economic Perspectives
Productivity down, participation up: US labor market improving
In the past five years, US Labor productivity growth has plunged to its lowest rate in more than three decades. This
development explains why the US labor market has been on such a robust improving trend in the face of a
disappointingly sluggish recovery in GDP.
The most important driver of this productivity slowdown appears to have been the weak recovery in business
investment, driven most likely by uncertainty about economic prospects. This picture is unlikely to improve enough to
give a significant boost to productivity growth any time soon.
This prospect augurs for continued strong growth in employment, which we expect will remain in the vicinity of 200k
per month if consensus (and FOMC) GDP growth projections are realized, and would mean substantial further
tightening of the labor market were it not for the recent rise in labor force participation. The participation rate could
rise slightly further in the near term, enough to keep unemployment from falling below the FOMC’s median projection
this year even if productivity growth stays extremely low.
But as we look beyond 2016, as labor force participation returns to a declining trend, the labor market will tighten
substantially further on consensus growth expectations (with unemployment falling well below 4%) unless
productivity growth picks up dramatically. The tightening labor market may induce firms to begin to spend more to
raise productivity, but that process will take time.
In the meantime, the bottom-line implications of our analysis for Fed policy are that the FOMC should have the luxury
of moving cautiously this year. However, in 2017, if the economy develops along the lines of the FOMC’s median
growth projection, the labor market is likely to tighten substantially faster than the Committee anticipates. This will
call for a more aggressive policy path than currently envisioned in the dots.

FX Daily Updated EUR/USD thoughts
Following last month's ECB and Fed meetings, we pushed our EUR/USD parity forecast out to the end of the year,
anticipating a period of stability in coming months. We see small upside risks to the euro following the ECB press
conference today but little to change our medium-term outlook.
First, despite recent Fed dovishness, the real rate differential between Europe and the US is not signaling a large
divergence in FX versus monetary policy expectations. EUR/USD "fair value" is a little above 1.15 on rate differentials,
suggesting small upside risks post a "no news" ECB day. To change our medium-term euro view, we would need to
agree with current market pricing, that the Fed is on hold this year. We don't: one or two hikes seems more
reasonable.
Second, the underlying flow picture – our Euroglut thesis – is not changing either. Updated portfolio flow data
released this week show that the relentless fixed income outflows from Europe continue at full speed, currently
running at an annualized half a trillion euros (chart 2). There is little to suggest that hedging behaviour on these flows
should be changing either: 1-yr euro cross-currency basis is reasonably stable, in contrast to Japan where the cost
has more than doubled in recent months.
Finally, we don't think that the medium-term dollar bull trend is over. The recent dollar correction is not unusual for
medium-term cycles (chart 3). And medium-term tops only happen when the dollar turns into a low-yielding currency.
The greenback is currently a mid-yielder – and is still on track for higher, not lower, yield rankings by the end of the
year.

India Equity Strategy Rising likelihood of La Niña: positive surprises ahead
Likelihood of La Niña event in 2016 has risen with two global weather agencies issuing a La Niña watch
Over the past one week, 2 leading international weather forecasting agencies (Australian Bureau of Meteorology and
National Oceanic and Atmospheric Admnistration, USA) have issued a La Niña watch for 2016. Both state that the
2015 El Niño event – among the strongest on record – is moderating and the probability of a La Niña event is rising.
The Bureau of meteorology in Australia has assigned a 50% probability to a La Niña occurrence. Extended and strong
El Niño occurrences (like the one we saw last year and which had likely been the key reason for the Indian drought)
have generally resulted in deficient Indian monsoons and sharp drops in agricultural production. Conversely La Niña
occurrences have led to bountiful rainfall and large above average increases in agricultural GDP growth rates which
have translated into above average GDP growth rates as well. In order to alleviate rural distress, India needs bountiful
rainfall, with proper spatial and temporal distribution. Consequently, a La Niña event could provide a major boost to
consumption, investment and GDP growth.
Analysis of >30 year data indicates strong positive correlation between La Niña and India’s key macro/rural indicators
While the El Niño is expected to moderate by the end of May by most weather forecasters, the timing of the onset of
La Niña is still uncertain. Most forecasters predict that this is likely to set in around Aug-Sept. This may likely lead to
above average rainfall during the latter part of the monsoon season. Given the historically strong positive correlation
between La Niña years and India’s GDP/agri dependent/rural sectors, we have analyzed more than 30 years (since
1980-81) of monsoon data and associated key economic indicators to assess the impact of La Niña. We arrive at the
following conclusions:
Bountiful rainfall in La Niña years: Average annual rainfall in La Niña years (officially identified by the
government - FY89, FY99, FY00, FY08 & FY11) has been 5.3% above long term average vs. a mean of 4.6%
below long term average in non-La Niña years. The Indian Meteorological Department has forecasted 2016
monsoon rainfall to be 106% of long term average assigning 94% probability to normal or above rainfall.
Robust performance of rural economy: Consequently, rural economy has also posted strong growth during La
Niña years. For e.g. Agri GDP in La Niña years grew at an average 7.8% yoy vs. an average of 2.3% yoy in non
La Niña years. In the past 2 years agri GDP growth has averaged an anemic 0.4% yoy on account of an El-
Nino influenced drought.
Food grain production growth in La Niña years averaged 9.6% yoy compared to an average 1.2% yoy in non
La Niña years. We also note that the positive impact of La Niña is amplified further if it is preceded by an El-
Nino year, a situation similar to the current year. Based on long term data of El Niño and La Niña events, there
is significant statistical evidence of strong El Niños being followed in quick succession by a La Niña.

Japan FI Morning Memo Superlong sector likely to lack sellers in April
Superlong sector likely to lack sellers in April
Trading activity by investor type in March shows notable end-FY purchases by the insurers in the superlong sector.
The insurers purchased a net JPY743bn superlong JGBs in March, which was 2.6 times more than the average of
JPY282.8bn for the 11 months through February FY15. Net buying probably swelled because the insurers had been
waiting until end-FY15 for yields to rise. We expect the pace of net purchases has declined again from April.
Agricultural, forestry, and fishery financial institutions also bought a net JPY430.1bn superlong JGBs. The city banks
made overall net purchases of public bonds to the tune of JPY952.4bn. Net purchases of JPY368.6bn superlong
JGBs were a stand out, but this likely also included buying for amortization; we doubt the city banks sharply built-up
risk after not doing so in February. In addition, regional financial institutions reduced net purchases of superlong
JGBs to JPY79.1bn (JPY335.4bn in February). They moved to net purchases of superlong JGBs when NIRP was
introduced and then appear to have reduced net buying due to the sharp fall in yields. However, the fact that they did
not become net sellers suggests they moved expecting a continued decline in yields. International Transactions in
Securities data shows foreigners sold a net JPY1.6trn long-term debt securities due to large redemptions in March.
Trading activity by investor type showed foreigners were net buyers overall (because redemptions are not included),
with net sales in the superlong sector but large net purchases of JPY1.4trn intermediate bonds. Buying based on a
widening of the USD/JPY basis swap spread continued to be concentrated mainly in intermediate JGBs. Domestic
investors do not seem to have built up sufficient JGB holdings, and some investors seem to be holding back from
selling, such as regional financial institutions. We think conditions continue to weigh on yields with a lack of sellers
and the BoJ's JGB purchases working to tighten supply/demand. The question is when domestic investors will move
to take profits. Our focus is May partly because yields are currently still declining.
Today's JGB market forecast: yields to have a downward bias due to smooth 20y auction
JGB yields continued to decline yesterday. The superlong sector led the fall in yields, possibly due to buying in
anticipation of a decline in yields following the 20y JGB auction. The 20y, 30y, and 40y yield fell to record lows of
0.245%, 0.285%, and 0.29%. Overseas markets were risk on yesterday, with a rally in oil prices, rise in stocks, fall in
USTs, and dollar appreciation. We expect JGB yields to have a downward bias today due to a smooth result to the
20y auction. We recommend buying at the 20y JGB auction from an immediate-term perspective. The auction
schedule is unusual because the long Golden Week holiday this year in April-May means if the 20y JGB auction is
smoothly absorbed the next 30y auction is not for another three weeks. With zero percent likely a bottom for the 20y
yield, in the immediate term we recommend buying at the auction and then selling at the BoJ's JGB purchase
operations. The JPY100bn reduction in 20y issuance to JPY1.1trn seems to provide a reason to buy, but the BoJ will
reduce the amount of its JGB purchases by a similar amount. Over the medium term, we recommend buying on dips
through issuance in May or from a 20y yield of above 0.5%. This is because we expect yields could rebound in May
to the extent of the supply/demand led decline. The media has reported that double elections appear to be off the
table, but we still see a high likelihood that the consumption tax hike will be delayed. Considering the impact of the
earthquakes in Kumamoto, taking the issue of postponing the hike to the Upper House election will probably be
accepted.
One-month outlook: We expect yields to have a downward bias through Golden Week due to numerous buying
catalysts such as expectations for tighter supply/demand and easing by the BoJ. However, we anticipate a rebound
in May so recommend trying to ride the yield wave. Over the medium-term, we recommend buying the 20y on dips
from 0.5% in the superlong sector

US Daily Economic Notes Gains in the LEI might be deceptive
Commentary for Today: The breadth of economic performance is generally a measure of durability. In other words, if
the economy is generating broad-based gains, growth is more likely to be sustained. This is because the economy
would not be relying on just one or two sectors to drive growth. We remain extremely cautious on the near-term
economic outlook because the projected Q1 slowdown in real GDP was likely relatively broad based: Consumption,
investment spending, housing and net exports are all anticipated to have slowed relative to their Q4 2015 growth
rates. Unlike Q1 2015, when most of the weakness in output was due to a plunge in net exports that resulted from
the West Coast port slowdown, there are no such excuses this year. In fact, the weather has been much better this
year, as well. In the first quarter of 2014 and 2015, record cold temperatures afflicted much of the Midwest and
Northeast, and could have weighed on factory sector output. Recall that many shipping lanes across the Great Lakes
were frozen. If anything, this year's more "normal" weather conditions should at the margin have been a mild positive
for growth. Instead, it appears the economy expanded by only 0.5% last quarter, which is extremely disappointing
given the fact that output grew only 1.4% in the quarter before.
More troubling to us than the expected weakness in Q1 2016 real GDP is the diminishing breadth of gains in the
composite of leading economic indicators (LEI). In the chart below, we show the three-month moving average of the
diffusion index of the LEI, because the data can be volatile. Incidentally, data for March are released this morning.
While we are projecting a 0.3% increase in the March LEI, most of that gain will be attributable to the rising stock
market. Therefore, the decline in breadth may continue. We can see from the chart that breadth has been declining:
In February, only four out of the 10 series contributed positively to the LEI (jobless claims, new consumer goods
orders, yield curve and leading credit index); five series made a negative contribution (ISM new orders, nondefense
capital goods orders, building permits, stock prices and consumer expectations) and one series (average workweek)
had no impact on the LEI because its reading was unchanged. Notice, too, that breadth in the LEI tends to peak well
before the onset of recession. For example, prior to the 2001 and 2007 downturns, the three-month moving average
of the diffusion index was 23% and 27%, respectively. Consequently, we should be on guard for sub-30% readings.

Slower smartphone growth and elongating refresh cycles remain headwinds
We remain focused on the long-term fundamentals for Apple, which suggest top-
line growth will be more challenging going forward. While we acknowledge many
will likely buy the stock on the "anticipation trade" into the iPhone 7 launch this
year, we see slower smartphone sales, lack of growth at the high end, limited
market share penetration in emerging markets, and elongating smartphone refresh
cycles as key inhibitors to Apple's growth longer term. With valuation currently
reflecting long-term growth challenges, balanced by expectations for a trade into
the iPhone 7 launch, we view shares as fairly valued and maintain our Hold.
Developed country sales slowing, emerging markets focused on price
The smartphone market is expected to see single-digit growth this year, as most of
the developed markets are now near saturation. In addition, with more transparency
on the cost of new phones, particularly in the U.S., carrier data suggests refresh
cycles are elongating, which will put pressure on growth in developed markets.
While there are still new buyers in emerging markets, these markets are highly
focused on cost, as disposable income in China and India is substantially below that
of the U.S. and Europe. In China, more than 70% of the market is for phones priced
below $300, while in India, four-fifths of smartphones sold cost less than $150. We
expect this price sensitivity to limit Apple’s ability to gain share in these markets
given their high price points.
Still unclear if recurring revenue streams will drive growth
While Apple’s Services segment (9% of sales) is generally a recurring revenue
stream, the remaining 91% of Apple’s sales are in decline or seeing slower growth.
Despite the roll out of new Services offerings like Apple Pay and Apple Music,
average annual sales per device of $17 declined by 10% Y/Y in FY-15. Without
clearer evidence that Apple can increase per device sales, and given its small size,
we believe Services is unlikely to be a major growth driver.
Expect shares to trade at a discount, similar to other S&P 500 giants
Our analysis of the largest company in the S&P 500 suggests that companies with
more than a 3% index weight trade at a roughly 20% discount to the market’s
forward P/E multiple. As a result, we expect Apple shares will likely be capped at
around 13x forward earnings, which is their average P/E since 2010. Positive risks:
stronger-than-expected smartphone sales, share gains, and higher margins.
Negatives: slower smartphone sales, market share losses.

Asia FX Strategy Notes RMB: Trip notes
The key takeaways are that the authorities are comfortable keeping the USD/CNY relatively stable for the time being,
so as to (1) restore stability in order to calm market nerves about CNY depreciation, and (2) discourage further capital
outflows. Given the new-found stability, China is unlikely to introduce more direct measures to manage flows,
including a Tobin tax. Even if outflows pick up, the message we have is that a Tobin tax is not the first port of call for
regulators. In the medium term, however, the authorities would still allow the CNY to weaken during a period of USD
strength, albeit at a more gradual depreciation pace. This is to ensure that the RMB is not overvalued against the
basket, and, given that corporates are a more appropriate hedge than before, some RMB flexibility can be permitted.
The timing of this is tricky, since the RMB is very much a policy-driven currency. Most people with whom we have
spoken expect the USD/CNY to remain relatively stable in 2Q and depreciation to resume only in 2H, when the USD
outlook starts to turn, as the Fed resumes rate hikes. Given that the authorities are likely to manage RMB actively
and that the USD outlook seems benign, we have closed our USD/CNH 6M call spread.
Takeaways
We visited Beijing last week to discuss with policymakers, think tanks and economic observers what they thought
about the recent stability of the RMB, the flow dynamic in the onshore market, the likely path of the RMB ahead, and
whether China would continue to liberalise its capital account. Here are our key takeaways.
RMB steady as she is…for now. For the time being, in an environment of a more benign USD outlook and outflows
becoming increasingly more manageable, the authorities are comfortable keeping the USD/CNY relatively stable. The
goals here are to (1) restore stability in order to calm market nerves about CNY depreciation, and (2) discourage
further capital outflows, which have been sizeable over the last few months. We estimate that, since August, China
has experienced about ~$640bn of FX outflows (Figure 1). Although most agreed that the majority of the outflows
were due to (1) the repayment of FX liabilities, and (2) the accumulation of FX deposits in order to manage/hedge
future payments (Figure 2), there is a concern that further CNY depreciation could have resulted in domestic
individuals/corporate becoming more active in converting their domestic assets into foreign assets − particularly
wealthier individuals. Why? Because of (1) a possible loss of confidence in the government’s ability to manage the
financial system, particularly given the poor management of the equity market in the last few months, and (2)
preserving wealth. It is also possible that, without stabilising CNY expectations, the CNY-CNH basis will continue to
widen, and could be viewed as China breaching the IMF regulation on ‘multiple currency practice’. This is something
we do not think China wants to be seen doing, particularly ahead of CNY inclusion into the SDR basket in October
2016.

Latam Airlines Mar Q 2016 Preview
Top-line declines continue to drive profits lower
Top-line declines continue to outpace fuel tailwinds
We are projecting our Latam airline coverage universe to generate an operating profit of $405 mm in the Mar Q,
which represents a 22.7% decline from the prior year. While fuel expense is estimated to fall 30.8% or $519 mm
from a year ago, we are forecasting that the fuel tailwind will be more than offset by the decline in top-line
(expecting a 12.5% or $795 mm decrease) as FX and a weak macro backdrop continue to pressure fares. In that
regard, we project the industry’s yield (average fare per mile) to fall 17.6% y-o-y, representing a $1 bb headwind
to industry profits, driven in large part by weak
FX/macroeconomic conditions (with key Latam economies in recession).
Raising earnings estimates for several carriers
Our Mar Q operating profit forecast is slightly improved from $371 mm previously, driven by higher estimates for
several carriers partially offset by a reduced Aeromexico forecast (see Figure 6). While our operating profit
forecast for the seasonally strong Mar Q is better-than-expected, our FY 2016 operating profit forecast of $1.5 bb
remains unchanged as we expect revenue trends in seasonally weaker periods to be worse than previously
estimated.
We expect only the two Mexican carriers to generate margin expansion
Among our coverage universe of six Latam names, we expect only AEROMEX and VLRS to generate operating
margin expansion of 0.3 pp and 4.7 pp, respectively. We estimate that the industry’s operating margin will decline
1.0 pp to 7.2%.
Brazilian loyalty programs earnings growth expected to continue
We expect the earnings growth experienced at Smiles and Multiplus in 2015 to continue in the March quarter and
2016 despite the macro headwinds facing the Brazilian consumer (i.e. FX volatility, contracting GDP, high
unemployment, high inflation, etc.). Despite our positive outlook for Smiles we are of the view that its shares will
trade “in sympathy” with GOL until its airline partner sees a more stable market backdrop, which underpins our
Hold rating on the stock (Mulitplus shares remain Buy-rated).
VLRS remains top pick; downgrading CPA to Sell
While all of our Latam airline stocks have appreciated year-to-date as emerging market indices have traded up
(e.g. the Brazilian Bovespa and Mexican Bolsa are up 24% and 7% year-to-date in local currency terms,
respectively), we continue to favor the Mexican carriers given the strength of the domestic market. We continue
to rank VLRS as our top pick given the successful execution of its ultra low cost carrier model (“ULCC”) across its
growing network. Our order of preference is VLRS, AEROMEX, and AVH. We are lowering our rating on CPA from
Hold to Sell due to our reduced earnings outlook for 2016 (EPS of $4.95 goes to $4.40, see more details on Page
4). Our Hold-rated stocks are GOL and LATAM.
Valuation and risks
On an EV/EBITDAR basis, Latam airlines are trading at 7.8x and 7.1x our 2016 and 2017 forecasts, respectively
(compared to the group’s historical trading range of 6x - 8x). Fuel price volatility is a key risk for the group
In this report, we downgrade Copa Holdings to Sell. We also adjust target prices and EPS estimates for many
companies in our Latam coverage universe.

Spin-off of Foodservice the key question going forward
Bidvest operates a diversified business model: while five of its 12 divisions account
for c.70% of group profit, we highlight the diverse nature of these five major
divisions. Collectively, Bidvest operates a mix of defensive business models that
function in lower-growth economic conditions. We estimate that c.40% of group
earnings come from non-rand currencies, providing a rand hedge. The challenge
will be how the enterprise value evolves in the face of a separate Foodservice
listing, raising the question of how the combination of other businesses could trade
on a stand-alone basis; we move from Buy to
Hold based on current share price levels.
We adjust our numbers for proforma financials – new BVT target price of R358 We
review the historic proforma financials for Foodservice in light of this new
information vs. our estimates published earlier in February 2016. We adjust our
numbers for lower revenue figures, higher interest charges and a lower effective tax
rate. Bidvest share count is to increase proforma for the transaction, making the
diluted weighted share count 331.3m (2.3% dilution from H1FY16). We currently
value Foodservice at R203 per share (down from
R213) on a base case.
We value Bidvest at R358 per share with no change to methodology We value
Bidvest using a weighted methodology including trading multiples of comparable
companies and SOTP on a 20% and 80% weighting, respectively. Our sum-of-the-
parts uses rolling EBIT multiples for the various divisions, excluding: 1) property, for
which we apply an 8.5% cap rate to the portfolio; 2) Bidvest Bank, which we value
on a price/book value of 2.0x; and 3) Bidvest Namibia, Adcock Ingram, and Comair,
for which we use current market values. Downside risks include: 1) inability to grow
earnings and 2) weakness in larger divisions. Upside risks include 1) re-rating of
Foodservice and 2) earnings surprise.

Integrated Oils and Refiners 1Q Preview: The Shift from Survival to Recovery
1Q16 Preview - Setting the stage for the recovery With crude oil balances likely to tighten through 2H16, and sentiment largely shifting constructive on both crude and the equities, we expect the market to look through what is likely to be a trough in qtrly results (high capex, low commodity), instead focusing on relative positioning into 2017 and the pace/magnitude of potentially increasing activity. Although we anticipate an emphasis on continued fiscal discipline, we expect signs of first-mover efforts by top-tier balance sheet/resource quality names (PXD) and an early road map into recovery for others. We favor quality multi-year outperformers (PXD, OXY), higher oil leverage plays (DVN, MRO, COP), and downgrade EOG to Hold.
Closing funding gaps, the organic (and inorganic) way Since a 4Q15 results season that was largely focused on 2016 budgets and survival, the outlook for funding has significantly improved, with a projected $25 Bn funding gap reduced to $9 Bn through a combination of asset sales ($5 Bn), equity issuance ($6 Bn) and an $5/bbl increase in the 2016 forward curve ($5 Bn). While recent asset sales have shown some signs of encouragement, we expect the market to remain challenging, and look for updates on outstanding asset sale programs (DVN, APC, COP), as well as potential for increasing capital flexibility post successful divestitures and/or equity issuance (MRO, DVN, HES).
From Flight to Fight: Framing the potential for the return of capital We expect conference calls to focus primarily on flexibility within current capital budgets, and the pace, magnitude and relative priority of a return to increased activity. Although we expect 2016 budgets to remain largely unchanged as yet, as companies emphasize capital discipline and balance sheet preservation, we expect increased discussion on hedging as a pre-cursor to a return of rigs (PXD now 45% oil hedged through much of 2017), DUC drawdown as a first step forward (EOG, APC), and the potential for the first rig/completion additions at $45/bbl crude from top-tier balance sheet/asset quality names (ie. PXD and other core Permian producers). While resource updates have garnered limited interest over the past 18 months, we expect potentially positive drilling/de-risking results from DVN, NBL, MRO. Within, see company by company details.
Continued shift towards higher beta/crude leverage: Downgrade EOG to Hold Although we still see advantaged balance sheet/resource quality names as multi-year outperformers (PXD, OXY) in what is likely to be a choppy, volatile and relatively moderate pace of recovery, we continue to highlight the need for increasing exposure to higher beta names, DVN, MRO and COP, which in a move from $40/bbl to $55-$60/bbl offer increased exposure to a recovery via potential asset sale/balance sheet catalysts, leading crude leverage and underappreciated improvements to cost structure. As such, we downgrade EOG from BUY to HOLD on relative valuation. The company remains a best-in-class operator with leading asset quality, but given significant outperformance, aggressive multiple expansion (6.2x premium on 2016 EV/DACF vs. historical peer average multiple) and limited NAV upside in a move to $65/bbl crude, we see greater potential upside elsewhere in the sector (see page 8).
Valuation and Risk Companies in our integrated/large-cap space are valued on either on a EV/DACF multiple (CVX, XOM, COP, and OXY) or on a blended NAV, EV/DACF multiple methodology. NAVs assume $70/bbl, $65/bbl, and $3.75/mcf for Brent, WTI and Henry Hub pricing respectively. Primary downside risks include a decline in global oil demand and a decrease in the underlying commodity. Upside risks include increased demand and increased operator efficiency. Major upside/downside risks to the refiners include an increase/ decrease in global product demand and a decrease/increase in feedstock costs.

Opinions, estimates and projections constitute the current judgment of the author as of the date of this report. They do
not necessarily reflect the opinions of Deutsche Bank and are subject to change without notice. Deutsche Bank has no
obligation to update, modify or amend this report or to otherwise notify a recipient thereof if any opinion, forecast or

purposes only. It is not an offer or a solicitation of an offer to buy or sell any financial instruments or to participate in any
particular trading strategy. Target prices are inherently imprecise and a product of the analyst’s judgment. The financial
instruments discussed in this report may not be suitable for all investors and investors must make their own informed
investment decisions. Prices and availability of financial instruments are subject to change without notice and
investment transactions can lead to losses as a result of price fluctuations and other factors. If a financial instrument is
denominated in a currency other than an investor's currency, a change in exchange rates may adversely affect the
investment. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. Unless otherwise indicated, prices are
current as of the end of the previous trading session, and are sourced from local exchanges via Reuters, Bloomberg and
other vendors. Data is sourced from Deutsche Bank, subject companies, and in some cases, other parties.
Macroeconomic fluctuations often account for most of the risks associated with exposures to instruments that promise
to pay fixed or variable interest rates. For an investor who is long fixed rate instruments (thus receiving these cash
flows), increases in interest rates naturally lift the discount factors applied to the expected cash flows and thus cause a
loss. The longer the maturity of a certain cash flow and the higher the move in the discount factor, the higher will be the
loss. Upside surprises in inflation, fiscal funding needs, and FX depreciation rates are among the most common adverse
macroeconomic shocks to receivers. But counterparty exposure, issuer creditworthiness, client segmentation, regulation
(including changes in assets holding limits for different types of investors), changes in tax policies, currency
convertibility (which may constrain currency conversion, repatriation of profits and/or the liquidation of positions), and
settlement issues related to local clearing houses are also important risk factors to be considered. The sensitivity of fixed
income instruments to macroeconomic shocks may be mitigated by indexing the contracted cash flows to inflation, to
FX depreciation, or to specified interest rates – these are common in emerging markets. It is important to note that the
index fixings may -- by construction -- lag or mis-measure the actual move in the underlying variables they are intended
to track. The choice of the proper fixing (or metric) is particularly important in swaps markets, where floating coupon
rates (i.e., coupons indexed to a typically short-dated interest rate reference index) are exchanged for fixed coupons. It is
also important to acknowledge that funding in a currency that differs from the currency in which coupons are
denominated carries FX risk. Naturally, options on swaps (swaptions) also bear the risks typical to options in addition to
the risks related to rates movements.

Derivative transactions involve numerous risks including, among others, market, counterparty default and illiquidity risk.
The appropriateness or otherwise of these products for use by investors is dependent on the investors' own
circumstances including their tax position, their regulatory environment and the nature of their other assets and
liabilities, and as such, investors should take expert legal and financial advice before entering into any transaction similar
to or inspired by the contents of this publication. The risk of loss in futures trading and options, foreign or domestic, can
be substantial. As a result of the high degree of leverage obtainable in futures and options trading, losses may be
incurred that are greater than the amount of funds initially deposited. Trading in options involves risk and is not suitable
for all investors. Prior to buying or selling an option investors must review the "Characteristics and Risks of Standardized
Options”, at http://www.optionsclearing.com/about/publications/character-risks.jsp. If you are unable to access the
website please contact your Deutsche Bank representative for a copy of this important document.
Participants in foreign exchange transactions may incur risks arising from several factors, including the following: ( i)
exchange rates can be volatile and are subject to large fluctuations; ( ii) the value of currencies may be affected by
numerous market factors, including world and national economic, political and regulatory events, events in equity and
debt markets and changes in interest rates; and (iii) currencies may be subject to devaluation or government imposed
exchange controls which could affect the value of the currency. Investors in securities such as ADRs, whose values are
affected by the currency of an underlying security, effectively assume currency risk.
Unless governing law provides otherwise, all transactions should be executed through the Deutsche Bank entity in the
investor's home jurisdiction.
