EME Macro/Strategy: EU vs. Russia – a marathon, not a sprint

The tensions between the EU and Russia continue to intensify, as stoppages in gas supplies are affecting Poland and Bulgaria already. These events are coherent with the risks that we saw as plausible last month, when we downgraded our 2022E GDP estimates to near zero across the board. The consensus 2022E real GDP forecasts are, in our view, still at least one percentage point too high for the Eurozone and the US, even in an optimistic scenario of conflict resolution. The biggest mispricing is on inflation across all horizons.
