FAO 세계식량가격지수 (FFPI) 또 하락했는데,이는  6개월 연속하락입니다. 식량부분에서는 인플레 물가정점 통과가 완연한 모습입니다.. 국내 라면 과자 가공식품 업체들이 가격을 인상하면서 내세운 원가상승은 그 근거가 약하다는 평가가 나오고 있습니다.

9일 뉴욕증시에 따르면 유엔 식량농업기구(FAO)는 9월 세계식량가격지수가 전월 대비 1.1% 내린 136.3을 기록했다고 밝혔습니다. 세계식량가격지수는 러시아 전쟁 발발 직후인 올 3월 역대 최고치인 159.7까지 올라갔다가 4월 158.4, 5월 158.1, 6월 154.7, 7월 140.7, 8월 137.9에 이어 6개월 연속 하락했습니다. FAO는 이와함께 8월 세계식량가격지수를 138.0에서 137.9로 수정했습니다. 러시아의 분쟁국가  침공으로 급등했던 세계 식량 가격이 6개월 연속 하락하면서 물가 공포가 상당부문 사그라 들고 있는데, 전년 동기 대비로는 5.5% 오른 상태입니다.

FAO는 1996년 이후 24개 품목에 대한 국제가격 동향을 모니터링해 곡물·유지류·육류·유제품·설탕 등 5개 품목군별로 식량가격지수를 매월 집계해 발표하고 있습니다. FAO는 특히 식물성 기름 가격이 전월 대비 6.6% 급락하며 전체적인 식량 가격 하락을 주도했다고 밝혔습니다. FAO는 공급량 증가와 원유 가격 하락이 식물성 기름 가격을 떨어뜨리는 요인으로 작용했다고 설명했습니다. 설탕, 유제품, 육류 가격도 하락하면서 세계식량가격지수 하방 요인으로 작용했습니다. 곡물 가격지수는 전월 대비 1.5% 상승했습니다. 러시아의 군 동원령과 분쟁국가  4개 점령지 합병 서명 등 전쟁 긴장 고조에 따라 분쟁국가  곡물 수급의 불확실성이 커지면서 밀 가격이 2.2% 오른 데 따른 것으로 보입니다. 쌀 가격도 최근 파키스탄에서 발생한 대홍수 여파로 전월 대비 2.2% 상승했습니다. FAO는 올 세계 곡물 생산량 전망치를 기존의 27억4천400만t에서 27억6천800만t으로 하향 조정했는데, 이는 전년 대비 1.7% 감소한 규모입니다.

다음은 FAO 세계식량가격지수 (FFPI) 발표문

The FAO Food Price Index (FFPI) is a measure of the monthly change in international prices of a basket of food commodities. It consists of the average of five commodity group price indices weighted by the average export shares of each of the groups over 2014-2016. A feature article published in the June 2020 edition of the Food Outlook presents the revision of the base period for the calculation of the FFPI and the expansion of its price coverage, to be introduced from July 2020. A November 2013 article contains technical background on the previous construction of the FFPI. Monthly release dates for 2022: 6 January, 3 February, 4 March, 8 April, 6 May, 3 June, 8 July, 5 August, 2 September, 7 October, 4 November, 2 December.

FAO Food Price Index drops for the sixth consecutive month

 

» The FAO Food Price Index* (FFPI) averaged 136.3 points in September 2022, down 1.5 points (1.1 percent) from August, marking the sixth monthly decline in a row. The FFPI's decline in September was driven by a sharp fall in the international prices of vegetable oils and moderate decreases in those of sugar, meat and dairy products, more than offsetting a rebound in the cereal price sub-index. Despite the new decline, the FFPI remained 7.2 points (5.5 percent) above its value in the corresponding month last year.

» The FAO Cereal Price Index averaged 147.8 points in September, up 2.2 points (1.5 percent) from August and 14.9 points (11.2 percent) above its September 2021 value. In September, international wheat prices rebounded by 2.2 percent, underpinned by heightened uncertainty about the Black Sea Grain Initiative's continuation beyond November and the potential impact on Ukraine's exports. Moreover, concerns regarding dry conditions in Argentina and the United States of America, as well as a fast pace of exports from the European Union on top of the bloc’s higher internal demand for wheat amid tighter maize supplies, provided further support to wheat prices. International prices of coarse grains rose marginally (+0.4 percent) again in September, with mixed price trends. World maize prices were nearly stable (+0.2 percent) as a strong United States dollar countered pressure from a tighter supply outlook with further downgraded production prospects in the United States of America and the European Union amid uncertainty regarding Ukraine's exports. International barley prices declined by 3.0 percent, mostly reflecting improved harvest prospects in Australia and the Russian Federation, while world sorghum prices increased by 13.2 percent due to reduced production prospects in the United States of America. The FAO All Rice Price Index rose by 2.2 percent in September. Indica prices spearheaded this increase, rising in response to export policy changes in India, which fostered anticipation that buyers would turn to other rice suppliers. Marketing disruptions and production uncertainties stemming from severe floods in Pakistan added to the price firmness. Nevertheless, demand was generally sluggish, thus capping increases in rice prices.

» The FAO Vegetable Oil Price Index averaged 152.6 points in September, down 10.8 points (6.6 percent) month-on-month, marking the lowest level since February 2021. The continued drop of the index reflected lower prices across palm, soy, sunflower and rapeseed oils. In September, international palm oil prices declined for the sixth consecutive month, largely driven by lingering heavy inventories that coincided with seasonally rising production in Southeast Asia. In the meantime, world soyoil quotations dropped moderately after a short-lived rebound in August in response to elevated export availabilities in Argentina, owing to sharply higher farmer sales. As for sunflower oil, international prices declined to a 14-month low due to increased export supplies from the Black Sea region amid subdued import demand. World rapeseed oil prices also fell markedly, primarily due to prospective abundant global production in the 2022/23 season. Lower crude oil prices also contributed to the downward pressure on world vegetable oil prices.

» The FAO Dairy Price Index averaged 142.5 points in September, down 0.8 points (0.6 percent) from August, marking the third consecutive monthly decline, but remained 24.4 points (20.7 percent) above its value a year ago. In September, international prices of all dairy products declined moderately, to a great extent reflecting the impact of the weaker Euro against the United States dollar in world dairy prices (expressed in United States dollars). Moreover, limited market demand for medium-term deliveries due to apprehensions over market uncertainties stemming from tight milk production, high energy costs and labour shortages, especially in Europe, coupled with bleak global economic growth prospects, also weighed on international dairy price quotations. Meanwhile, demand for spot supplies remained robust, especially from Asia.

» The FAO Meat Price Index* averaged 121.4 points in September, down 0.6 points (0.5 percent) from August, also registering the third consecutive monthly decline, but still 8.7 points (7.7 percent) above its value in the corresponding month last year. In September, international price quotations for ovine meat declined the most, underpinned by the impacts of currency movements. Bovine meat prices also fell on high export availabilities from Brazil and elevated cattle liquidation in some producing countries. Meanwhile, poultry meat prices fell marginally as world import purchases remained subdued, notwithstanding constrained export supplies from some large exporting countries amid avian influenza outbreaks. By contrast, world pig meat prices increased further, reflecting the supply shortfall of slaughter-ready pigs in the European Union.

» The FAO Sugar Price Index averaged 109.7 points in September, down 0.8 points (0.7 percent) from August, marking the fifth consecutive monthly decline and reaching its lowest level since July 2021. The September decline was mostly related to the good production prospects in Brazil, the world's largest sugar exporter, with rains benefiting yields of standing crops and lower ethanol prices prompting a greater use of sugarcane to produce sugar. The weakening of the Brazilian real against the United States dollar exerted further downward pressure on world sugar prices while encouraging greater exports. Although the favourable production outlook for the 2022/23 season contributed to lowering prices, prevailing overall tight global sugar supplies limited the month-on-month price decline.

* Unlike for other commodity groups, most prices utilized in the calculation of the FAO Meat Price Index are not available when the FAO Food Price Index is computed and published; therefore, the value of the Meat Price Index for the most recent months is derived from a mixture of projected and observed prices. This can, at times, require significant revisions in the final value of the FAO Meat Price Index which could in turn influence the value of the FAO Food Price Index.

 

 

2013년 10월 10일: 연준이 망가지기 시작한 일

버냉키 연준의장이 지켜보는 가운데 지명된 재닛 옐런 차기 연준의장의 모습. 14년 1월에 상원 인준등을 거쳐 정식적으로 취임하며, 4년간 FRB를 이끌었으며, 최초의 여성 연준의장 이었습니다.

왜 옐런때부터 망가졌냐? 원래 연준은 명확했는데 특히 버냉키는 플랜이 명확했고 솔직한 편이었습니다. 그런데 간을 보기 시작한 시점이 옐런때부터 였습니다.

맨날 '좋은것도 아니고 나쁜것도 아니다' '이렇게 할수도 있고 저렇게 할수도 있다'로 변화 되었습니다. 최악의 의장인 파월은 옐런의 상위버전일뿐 입니다.

예측이 아니라 대응하는건 시장 플레이어들이 해야할 일입니다.근데 연준이 이렇게 하면서 시장운영이 엉망진창이 된 주된 원인 입니다.

여러분들이 투자를 잘못한게 아니라 이번 투자손실의 모든 책임은 파월의장과 연준에게 있는것입니다.

 

 

Coming soon in Europe

유럽의 에너지 위기는 올해로 끝나고 넘길것이 아닙니다. 그리고 문제는 복합적인 위기란게 결정적 이며, 에너지 위기발 경기침체는 08GFC 무색할 정도의 충격이 가능하고, 정부 보조금으로 버티려고 한다면 재정위기를 초래할 수 있습니다.

유럽인들은 예년보다 올겨울 지출해야될 전기요금과 에너지비용이 최대 4배이상 증가할것으로 전망됩니다. 월소득을 겨울철 전기요금과 난방비로 지출하고 나면 소비해야될 금액이 대폭 감소하면서 유럽인들 아주 심각한 경제위기로 인한 우울증을 겪게될 것입니다. 상대적으로 따뜻한 아시아로 넘어오지 않을까 그런 생각이 드는 이유입니다. 아시아로 넘어오면 한국으로 유입이 많이 될것 같은데 제발 오지말고 니네 나라에서 살아라 이런말을 해주고 싶습니다.
