QUESTION: A latest evaluation by Allianz economists claimed that, ordinarily, when yields on Treasuries rise, the U.S. greenback strengthens as overseas capital pursues these increased yields. Nonetheless, the greenback weakened as yields rose. They stated that on this occasion, it “suggests main holders weren’t solely promoting Treasuries but additionally changing the proceeds into currencies – presumably reallocating to European markets.”
This doesn’t appear to be right. It appears like an opinion. Might you touch upon this, please?
Thank You

ANSWER: I believe lots of people fail to understand the stark distinction between the US markets and Europe. The NYSE is price MORE in whole capitalization than all of Europe COMBINED! The US client spending on a nasty day continues to be 25% of worldwide client spending. Europe accounts for $1.20 out of each $10 spent. Europe CANNOT be a reservoir for giant capital. It’s so socialistic, it’s a joke. We invented capital circulate evaluation, and we have now the precise information.
This concept is just not unique about rates of interest and capital flows. That is the standard educational concept they nonetheless train in faculties at the moment. In 1927, that was the FIRST G4 assembly the place Britain, France, and Germany petitioned the NY Fed to decrease rates of interest in hopes that that may ship capital again to Europe. Once they did that, it CONFIRMED that there was a debt disaster, and much more cash poured into the USA.
The Fed lower charges within the US to assist Europe, and the markets continued to rise as capital flows into the US intensified. The cash was pouring into the US equities, and the Dow greater than doubled because the Federal Reserve raised charges from 3.5% to six%.
China has been decreasing its holdings of US debt ever for the reason that 2014 Ukrainian Warfare started and the Biden Administration threatened China with sanctions if it helped Russia. That is what I’ve spoken concerning the BRICS is all about: geopolitical theater, not economics. China noticed eradicating Russia from SWIFT as utilizing the world monetary system as a geopolitical software. The Biden Administration was run by the Neocons, who don’t care concerning the folks or the economic system, solely their myopic want to destroy Russia.
That is why FOX Information or any mainstream information group would NEVER invite me as a result of I rain on their parade. That is all about feeding folks the narrative they agree with. That is by no means about information.
BLOOMBERG
Bloomberg has crossed to the darkish aspect of propaganda; They’re extra involved about hating Trump than they’re about reporting simply the info, ma’am. They reported:
“The rotation by buyers out of American property will go on for years if President Donald Trump persists along with his international commerce battle.”
“The Trump administration has arguably opened the door for the nation’s monetary dominance to be challenged, with the greenback and Treasury bonds dropping enchantment in what could also be a dire shift of fortunes for America. US equities even have been underperforming international friends this yr amid worry that Trump’s technique of tariff rooster will injury progress and stoke inflation.”
That is all based mostly on the Democrats’ propaganda through the 1932 presidential election. As I’ve stated, there is no such thing as a critical economist I’ve ever heard blame the Nice Melancholy on the tariffs, which didn’t come into impact till June 1930, and so they have been a response to Europeans elevating taxes 33 instances after World Warfare I.
By the way in which, Japan and China have additionally been dumping European Debt. With Europe pushing for World Warfare III, it’s a must to be insane to purchase European debt. European shares maintain the chance of capital controls, and you’ll not get your cash out when the primary bullet is fired.
So, persons are promoting US shares and debt and shifting to Europe as a protected haven? They should be the identical people who find themselves nonetheless driving alone of their automobile with a masks on to really feel protected.
