The Heart of the Economy: What Exactly Would a Stronger Yuan Do for the US Economy?
http://heartoftheeconomy.blogspot.com/2009/11/what-exactly-would-stronger-yuan-do-for.html
The Heart of the Economy. Economics, international trade, investment. Thursday, November 19, 2009. What Exactly Would a Stronger Yuan Do for the US Economy? In theory, an appreciation of the Yuan should narrow the trade deficit between the US and China. But it’s likely that the trade deficit won’t fall much (if at all), because consumers driven by low prices are likely to select goods from other low cost producers (Thailand, South Korea, the Phillipines, or India, for example). Where are all the posts?

The Heart of the Economy. Economics, international trade, investment. Wednesday, September 23, 2009. Ambivalence on Health Care. My wife and I had to take our baby girl to the emergency room because she had a high fever, some diarrhea, and we worried she’d get dehydrated. We were there a few hours, during which time she was checked on several times by very conscientious doctors, who spent a total of maybe 30 minutes of total person-hours on her care. The bill? If one restaurant has an outbreak of E coli.

The contradiction of Asia is that every country wants their currency to be strong and weak at the same time. Strong currencies are viewed as stable, and attract investment. Yet weak currencies allow the country to export goods that seem cheap in other countries. How will China respond to this move? Links to this post.

The Heart of the Economy: October 2009
http://heartoftheeconomy.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
The Heart of the Economy. Economics, international trade, investment. Wednesday, October 28, 2009. The American household continues the path of downsizing and consolidation. Electricity usage, which hardly ever declines, has fallen 2.3% in the US since August 2008, reflecting mostly the decrease in industrial output. Similarly, shouldn’t rising foreclosures push more people into the rental market? How does all this saving and decreased consumption affect the economy? Individuals are curtailing their spen...

The Heart of the Economy. Economics, international trade, investment. Thursday, November 12, 2009. Gold Prices Continue to Climb. So far in 2009, the S&P 500 is up 21%, while gold is up nearly 25%.

Now sentiment ha...

The Heart of the Economy. Economics, international trade, investment. Thursday, July 09, 2009. Getting to the Source of Systemic Risk. Recent articles on the US and world economic crisis have often been focused on the concept of ‘systemic risk’. For example, Robert Pozen, author of Too Big to Save? Argues in The Wall Street Journal. If a large corporation (financial or otherwise) loses billions or even hundreds of billions, how does that threaten the system as a whole? In the same way that nature rewards...

http://heartoftheeconomy.blogspot.com/2009/11/holiday-spending-and-fed.html
The Heart of the Economy. Economics, international trade, investment. Monday, November 30, 2009. Holiday Spending and the Fed. The veil of illusion that says the dollar has value is being torn away. Last week’s “Saturday Night Live” had an actor playing President Obama giving a press conference with an actor playing China’s President Hu Jintao, who repeatedly reminded Obama that the US owes China a lot of money. At one point, Hu asks, “Do I look like Mrs. Obama? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Where ...
