la causa de la sobrevaloración del dólar no son los extratipos que estuviera regalando EEUU por endeudarse compitiendo con no se sabe quién, sino que interesa que esté sobrevalorado para la inmensa recomposición de carteras de valores financieros y no financieros denominados en dólares que está habiendo en todo el mundo —como pasó con el ladrillo en la Operación Desagüe inmobiliaria—; porque la característica principal de esta doble crisis coyuntural y estructural es que es un proceso querido y administrado por el sistema

Hay que actualizarse... ahora lo suyo sería ducharse junto con la vecina/el vecino / el vecine y así aprovechar mejor el rato, digo el agua

Muchas maulas americanas han perdido en bolsa un 30-40-50 o hasta el 60% antes de la revalorización del dólar. Si tenías una acción de Tesla el 1 de enero has perdido en lo que va de año un 42% el dólar ha pasado en ese rato de 0,88 euros a 1,04. Evidentemente algo (bastante) has compensado. Ahora mismo si vendes Tesla y eres americano consumidor de cosas en USA has perdido mucho más que si eres europeo consumidor de cosas en europa.Digamos que ese sería, según asustadísimos, un incentivo a vender (antes de que venga el gran aguachirle)y por lo tanto a que el mundo desinvirtiera en USA (su deuda, las acciones de sus empresas...).Lo que tendría cierto sentido si USA pretende ser acreedor del mundo y no al reves, como lleva siéndolo hace 50 años. Parece que quieren vendernos el gas y armas y tal.Volver la balanza comercial del revés es algo que parece que es un objetivo de las últimas administraciones americanas. La balanza comercial y la de capital son complementarias. Hay alguna ficha de asustadísimos sobre el asunto que seguro que lo explica mejor.
‘Do not prolong the pain,’ IMF head tells UK Chris Giles in LondonThe head of the IMF told the UK on Thursday “not to prolong the pain” of having policies that do not foster sustainability in the public finances, after a meeting with the chancellor and Bank of England governor.Speaking at the opening of the formal sessions of the IMF annual meetings, Kristalina Georgieva repeated the fund’s view that fiscal policy “should not undermine monetary policy”.Addressing the UK specifically, she added: “Don’t prolong the pain. Make sure that actions are coherent and consistent.“If the evidence is that there has to be a recalibration, it is right for governments to do so,” she added.
Plenum communique and Party Congress chatter; Response to US semiconductor decoupling; Another defense of dynamic zero-Covid(...) Summary of today’s top items:Seventh Plenum Communique - There were no surprises from the communique of the Seventh Plenum, and no hints as to the substance of the amendment to the CPC Constitution. The communique does likely give a good summary into what is in Xi's work report. I expect it be similar to much of what is in the historical resolution issued a year ago.Party Congress chatter - As I mentioned above, the lack of reliable information or even credible rumors about personnel and Party charter changes at the Congress next week are quite remarkable. There are some useful articles looking at possible promotions, though we are all just guessing at this point."Lying flat is unacceptable, winning without effort is impossible" - People's Daily has a third "Zhong Yin" commentary this week on the correctness of Dynamic zero-Covid, this one titled "Lying flat is unacceptable, winning without effort is impossible". I will guess that they are running this series right before the Party Congress because they want to set expectations that there will be no sudden shift in the policy soon after the Congress, as many have been hoping.Semiconductor controls - The new rules are already having an impact as some foreign companies remove personnel and stop support.US National Security Strategy - The Biden Administration has released a public version of the long-delayed National Security Strategy. The PRC features prominently, and the section on China is titled “Out-competing China and Constraining Russia”. There are no surprises from the earlier strategy articulated by Secretary of State, and there still does not appear to be a definition of the desired end state from “out-competing China”. Maybe there is more in the full classified version, but this one reads like a bit of a mishmash of interagency agendas and compromises.PSL lending for infrastructure not real estate - Caixin reports that the revived pledged supplemental lending (PSL) tool will be used to fund much of the 600 Billion RMB infrastructure announced over the summer, not for rescuing/stimulating real estate as some had hoped.Water problems in Shanghai - The Shanghainese can not catch a break. The shutting of a couple of reservoirs due to saltwater tides is leading to frenzied buying of bottled water. The government said there is nothing to worry about, so people then buy even more, given the lessons learned from government statements about lockdown earlier this year. Harvard and Edelman really should re-run their surveys on citizen satisfaction that PRC officials love to cite, and if the PRC will not let them they should issue statements that the data are old and no longer valid since so much has changed since the pandemic…(...)
China’s Xi Jinping problemA relentless centralisation of power allows the Chinese leader to take decisive action. But it makes it harder to reverse his mistakes[(...)As for reining in the property sector, Michael Pettis, a finance professor at Peking University, says “it should have been done 10 years ago” given China’s over-dependence on debt-fuelled industries for growth.“But there is no easy way out,” he adds. “There is just bad and worse. So much of China’s growth has been driven by real estate and infrastructure spending, so it’s good that they clamped down on real estate.”(...)
Inflation’s Storm From the ShelterThe Fed can probably look past how housing costs are pushing up inflation, but it can’t ignore everything elseThe upward pressure that housing costs have been putting on inflation can now probably be safely ignored. If only there was nothing else going on but the rent.The Labor Department on Thursday reported that consumer prices rose a seasonally adjusted 0.4% in September from August, putting them 8.2% above their year-earlier level. Core prices, which exclude food and energy items in an effort to better track inflation’s trend, rose 0.6% on the month, and 6.6% on the year. Both the headline and core measures were above economists’ estimates, dashing any remaining hopes that Federal Reserve policy makers might raise rates by half a percentage point, rather than again by three-quarters of a point, when they next meet in November.Part of why prices rose by so much last month was that shelter costs, which account for about a third of the Labor Department’s overall consumer-spending basket and about two-fifths of core spending, rose by 0.7% in August from a month earlier. Excluding shelter, overall prices would have risen a more muted 0.2%, and core prices 0.5%.And excluding shelter costs, or at least putting less weight on them, seems appropriate. That is because shelter costs largely reflect rents, and the Labor Department’s read on rents is lagging what actual rents are doing.Rents themselves only account for about 7% of the Labor Department’s consumer-spending basket, since more people own than rent. To measure owners’ shelter costs, the Labor Department uses rent prices to calculate “owners’ equivalent rent”—what it deems people would need to pay if they rented homes equivalent to ones they own. It is somewhat controversial, and even supporters have parroted Winston Churchill’s line on democracy, saying it is the worst way to measure housing costs, except all the others that have been tried.The issue now, however, is that the Labor Department’s measure of rents reflects what renters at large are paying—both those that have just signed leases, and those that signed them awhile ago. So when rent prices on new leases heat up, it takes time for the Labor Department’s measure to reflect the rise, because it takes time for people’s old leases to come up for renewal. By the same token when rent prices cool, it takes time to show up, too.And right now, rent prices are cooling. Data from Zillow, for example, show they rose by 0.3% in September from August, which compares with a gain of 1.6% in September of last year. Rent figures from CoreLogic, from property-management-software provider RealPage and from rental marketplace Apartment List all similarly show rent prices moderating. It will take a while for the cooling to show up in the Labor Department’s consumer-price figures, but it will show up.None of this is a secret—plenty of people, including Fed economists, know all about the lagged effect of rent prices in the inflation data, and additionally shelter costs carry less weight in the Fed’s preferred measure of inflation from the Commerce Department than they do in the Labor Department’s gauge. Looking at inflation excluding shelter costs might cause optics problems for the Fed, but it still makes sense.The bigger problem is that excluding shelter costs, inflation is still running too hot. Take them away, and take away food and energy items, too, and prices were up 6.7% from a year earlier. You can ignore the rent, but you can’t ignore everything.
Soaring rent, food costs keep U.S. consumer inflation on front burnerWASHINGTON, Oct 13 (Reuters) - U.S. consumer prices increased more than expected in September as rents surged by the most since 1990 and the cost of food also rose, reinforcing expectations the Federal Reserve will deliver a fourth 75-basis-point interest rate hike next month.(...)
