OCBC's mid-August forecast revisions quantify the bifurcation: Vietnam upgraded to 8.2% and Indonesia to 5.2%, while the Philippines was cut to 3.2% from 3.8% and Thailand nudged to 2.4%. DBS economists attribute the split to each economy's exposure to technology exports versus imported energy. The revisions signal where regional capital and manufacturing flows are heading.
A prolonged Strait of Hormuz disruption is exposing deep structural weaknesses in Africa's oil-importing economies, putting sovereign credit, inflation and investment themes under pressure. The continent’s paltry 10% manufacturing GDP share highlights the urgent need for a new growth model centred on energy independence and regional integration.
