CAUTIONS MATIGNON

The recession is over, growth should start slowly, but it should leave. Beginning with the industrial production in France in August which confirmed the tentative recovery in July. The trend is confirmed by the OECD has released its leading indicators. Note: France and Italy are both countries that could experience a phase of "growth potential".

While prudence, Prime Minister François Fillon suggests a growth rate of 1% in 2010. It is true that one wonders if because of the economic analysis or policy by moderating the rate of growth to come. The government has no incentive to announce too fast as the situation improves. If he wants to carry out reforms - particularly those who cringe as the professional tax or carbon tax - he has an interest in presenting a cautious forecast. If, in fact, growth in 2010 exceeding the forecast, this will be twofold reward: he can always explain the stronger than anticipated recovery is the result of government action, and take advantage of renewed activity.

We're still not there. Indicators and casts doubt on the strength of the recovery ahead.

And consumer prices? It would be an exaggeration to say that they have fallen. In one year, according to Insee, they fell by 0.4%, which corresponds to a form of stability. This is not the future that wage moderation may fuel the future growth of prices ...

Raw materials deserve more attention. (We can not advise the regular reading of our brothers and indexes of quotations). Thus, in its monthly newsletter, OPEC plans to increase its production somewhat in 2009 (84.2 million barrels) and 2010 (84.9 Less barrels). The demand for crude would be fueled by China, the Middle East, India or Latin America.

That one of the last countries where the Communist Party is in control, save the world economy out of deflation, it must be that the German philosopher Hegel called a "cunning of history" ...
