Greg: Great piece. Huge praise again on your book — “Default”. I haven’t followed the NY bills. The main problem in sov debt space right now is LIC debt to official creditors such as China. How would NY bills get China/non-traditional creditors to provide quick, deep relief?

Great FTA. The threshold question is whether to seize the corpus of blocked 🇷🇺 assets. Europe not there. Were the threshold crossed, officials can quickly devise a good plan. This is far more a matter of political will than law. Seize the assets.👇 omfif.org/2024/03/its-ti…

@Brad_Setser I was on the GS trading floor at the time. None of the interventions changed Yen direction. The problem - then as now - is that FX intervention doesn't work if it isn't matched by monetary policy. In this case, it must come with rising 10-year JGB yield. Only that will work...
It makes NO sense for Japan's MoF to intervene to strengthen Yen (black), if - simultaneously - BoJ is buying JGBs (blue), which weakens Yen. This is what happened in 2022, when $/JPY was 140. We're now at 157, which tells you just how ineffective this kind of intervention is...

Discussing the seizing of Russian reserves is entering troll city. What strikes me however is a fundamental difference of opinion. I think that we, the western economies, are, by proxy, at war with Russia. Most of the trolls do not or pretend we are not.
GDP growth came in a bit below expectations at a 1.6% annual rate in the first quarter. But much of the slowdown was in non-inertial items like inventories (-0.35pp) and net exports (-0.86pp). The better signal of final sales to private domestic purchasers was 3.1%.
