Complete agreement. Some are covering up business interests as national interest. Anyone who wages a war of aggression should know their reserves are at risk. And if they feel Reminbi is safer, let them invest there. The @ecb should stop being on the way. Take those reserves.

A bold vision for Europe is all good and well, but the future of Europe is determined in the here and now, i.e. in how Europe responds to Russia's invasion of Ukraine. In this regard, Europe just drops the ball. French exports to Kyrgyzstan are up 550% from before the invasion...
The issue for the Euro zone and especially the periphery is high debt levels. If US long-term rates rise, which is happening, that will drag up long-term yields in Europe, especially among high debt countries like Italy. Only debt reduction fixes that… on.ft.com/3xRn1ir
There's a "fear-of-floating" at the ECB that's worrying. Senior policy makers worry that the ECB shouldn't decouple policy from the Fed, as the Euro might fall too much. Europe is facing a major shock. If inflation isn't a problem - which it isn't - weaker Euro is only good news.
The Fed forecasts core PCE inflation of 2.6% y/y in Q4 2024. Even with today's "in-line" core PCE, there's now significant upside risk to that and it'll need to be raised in June. Red bars are how much inflation needs to slow to meet the Fed forecast. Hard to see this happening.
The Euro zone is now clearly winning the disinflation race. That should worry ECB policy makers. The Euro zone went into COVID with very different initial conditions than the US, i.e. big output gaps. The danger now is a return to the status quo ex ante of borderline deflation...
In 2017, Macron’s call for EU strategic autonomy was prescient. The world has become more unfriendly to the EU’s naïve model of economic openness. Fair diagnosis - but in key areas his Sorbonne 2.0 speech presents a contradictory and unbalanced economic vision for Europe.🧵
There seems to be a connection between misinformation and inflation. From @S_Stantcheva's excellent paper on inflation, when CPI was 3.4%--half of respondents thought it was 5% or more and one-quarter thought it was 10% or more. brookings.edu/wp-content/upl….

The big problem for US inflationistas - those who always see another inflation breakout coming - is this chart. Maybe the output gap isn't as big as after the 2008 crisis, but you have a hard time claiming that the US is overheating. So where is inflation supposed to come from?

Of all the major economies, the cyclical picture looks by far the strongest in Japan. Unlike the ECB, which fell into the trap of trying to match the Fed's hiking cycle, the BoJ kept its cool and stuck it out. The big Yen depreciation now means Japan manufacturing is going well.
The sick man of Europe is France. The UK (lhs) looks better than Germany (middle) or France (rhs). Germany looks better than France. The kick-the-can approach in the EU comes at a cost and that cost is now becoming clear. Growth is stagnating just like after the 2008 crisis...
For all the talk about a global rebound, this really isn't in the data. US activity is slowing and a key indicator of stronger global demand - the manufacturing PMI (blue) - looks weak in the US (lhs) and the Euro zone (rhs). Rate cuts are coming. Market pricing is too hawkish...
The cost of pump-prime spending ahead of last month's local elections in Turkey is now becoming clear. Spot FX reserves (blue) in Mar. '24 fell -$10.3 bn. Forward intervention (pink) was -$12.9 bn. Reserves are recovering a bit this month but are still down -$16.5 bn overall...
