Китай определяет курс монетарной политики ФРС


Китай является ключевым покупателем госдолга США, и это накладывает на Федеральную резервную систему определенные ограничения.
Как отмечает в своей статье на Project Syndicate профессор экономики и политологии Калифорнийского университета в Беркли Барри Эйхенгрин, ФРС вынуждена реализовывать монетарную политику с оглядкой на Китай.
"Большую часть года инвесторы напряженно следят за новостями и комментариями чиновников из ФРС, стремясь понять, когда произойдет долгожданное "повышение", то есть к…

Trader's BASICS: How the Economy Works? in 30 minutes

Watch Ray Dalio (one of the best economists in this decade) simple but deep video about the inner workings of economies.

EURo In Past Bear Markets

Summary
1) The past two major bear markets for the euro were significantly larger than the current one.
2) Currencies are prone to large overshoots.
3) The peak in monetary divergence is not known and even if it was, the incentive structure of interest rates favors a continued decline in the euro.
The first bear market is associated with the policy overshoot with Reagan's stimulative fiscal policy and Volcker's tight monetary policy.The euro's equivalent lost about 58% of its value.

Thanks for the great info Alok. I have a few questions:
1) You seem to be quoting from somewhere, what are your sources?
2) I take it that the key message is that you/they expect the Euro to drop to $0.80 - any timeline for this?
3) This seems almost entirely about the US side to this, surely economic activity and policies in Europe are at least as important?

Thanks again.

Hey Uri, thanks for going through the article!
1) I work for the largest stock pitching journal(yes US based), so me and my team compile a few macro articles along with stock recos. Here I only see technical analysis blogs and therefore I post our team's 1-2 macro articles/day for those interested.

2) you can see it as early as next week. I think we will see that drop before the next quarter.
3) Yes, at the moment..its general consensus that Eurozone is weak and the economic activity and policies are nothing that we dont know and are being discussed and debated for a long time (cont)

(cont.) and its feasibility has long factored in the currency.

Would like to hear your views on this. Thanks

1) Ok, that makes sense.
2) Wow $0.80 by next quarter (or even next week!) seems scary - as you say you think fundamentals are already priced in, you think this drop will be entirely due to market sentiment?
3) I get what you're saying, it just seems to me that if we see the Euro drop as precipitously as you suggest it will have to involve more than just the Fed's actions but rather something serious happening in Europe, either politically or economically.

World Cup Finale: Emerging Market vs Developing Market team


As you already know the Brasil World Cup 2014 finale will be played between Germany (Developing Market team) vs Argentina (Emerging Market team). In this blog post I just want to take the time and have a look into the economics data and see how the two economies stack up against each other. Last time I've wrote about the World Cup I've applied a carry trade strategy by going long a basket of emerging currency market funded by a basket of developed market currencies and see who would win based o…

Texas Hold 'Em Poker Tournaments And Value Investing

Poker and investing are both about decisions amidst risk and uncertainty, played out in real time. The core of both poker and investing is the maximization of average profit based upon probability. In both activities, intuition is a dangerous guide. Quantitative reasoning, instead, is key to exploiting counter-parties. Both rely on the branch of economics known as utility theory. Utility theorists quantify preference orders such that a utility maximizer can determine how to make rational decisio…
