Biden's stimulus plan could drive out funds from Asia to the U.S., JPMorgan says

preview

Key PointsJPMorgan says Biden's stimulus plan is a 'positive surprise'SINGAPORE — Asia's emerging markets could become a casualty as a result of U.S. President-elect latest $1.9 trillion Covid relief plan.That's according to James Sullivan, head of Asia ex-Japan equity research at JPMorgan.3 hours ago11 hours ago"Most investors were very positive on Asia and emerging markets relative to the U.S." before details of the latest rescue package were announced, Sullivan told CNBC's "Street Signs Asia" on Friday."We've seen over 18 consecutive weeks of fund inflows into Asia ex-Japan over the course of the last couple of months," he said, adding that it is "highly likely" that funds start to rotate out of emerging markets in Asia back to the U.S. as a result of the boost to economic growth from Biden's plan.Biden on Thursday revealed the breakdown of his proposed package, titled the American Rescue Plan, which includes measures aimed at sustaining families and firms until vaccines are widely distributed. The plan includes stimulus checks as well as unemployment support.Sullivan said JPMorgan previously forecast a two percentage point drag on U.S. GDP as a result of the lack of fiscal stimulus."We had baked into our forecast a $900 billion fiscal stimulus package, that drove a move from a 2 percentage point drag to a 70 basis point push to U.S. GDP," he said of the previous forecast.With Biden's $1.9 trillion plan now coming in at more than twice the amount expected by JPMorgan, the analyst said it will be a "positive surprise" for the market as well as for overall levels of economic growth in the U.S."Investor fund flows into Asia have been very aggressive over the course of the past couple of months, you could start to see that reverse out," the analyst said. "I'd say, we're maybe about halfway through the trade at this stage."China's markets — — could be among the first to be affected by this shift, Sullivan predicted."You're likely to see the aggressive outperformers of 2020 be a source of funds," he said. "China would be very much front and center there."
