China rebalanced away from property investment and back toward exports -- bigly. numbers are very clear That is the issue that the world (apart from the US President, who prefers to dream of arches, golf courses and ballrooms) is now confronting in various ways https://t.co/7kD46OJFMa 引用 @Balding

Wish Secretary Bessent would have said something similar at Ashville ... Oh well. "the house" is not currently taking the lead on exchange rate issues
France &Germany recognize that their trade defenses will always be tested absent a significant adjustment in the RMB -- (they are 100% right that broad rebalancing won't happen without exchange rate adjustment; there isn't a strong link now between Chinese demand growth and https://t.co/ibENlkkL5b

a 1 pp shift in the composition of output would normally lead to a shift of ~ 1.3m jobs (US economy has 130m jobs at the time). the lower estimate reflects the standard view the traded goods sector is more productive than some service sectors, so less job intense
I did not realize it was controversial in some quarters that changes in the overall trade balance lead to changes in the composition of employment and output (and since sectoral employments tends to be concentrated, pronounced regional shifts) 2/2 https://t.co/vvW1Vq6FLS 引用 @Brad_Setser：A few com
Standard ballpark calculations would support the argument that the surge in Chinese imports (~1 pp pf GDP, which drove a similar increase in non oil imports) would lead to a reduction in manufacturing employment of ~ 1m (1/4 of the 3.5 or so lost in early 00s) ... especially as 引用 @joefrancis505：Th
A few days ago, I argued that excessive debt wasn't driving yields higher (link). The repost is my argument for why yields are moving higher, and why they are no longer expensive. https://t.co/AcrblgHGGS 引用 @biancoresearch：For years, yields were below where the economy said they should be. That i
For years, yields were below where the economy said they should be. That is no longer the case. https://t.co/m60EDhxYGD
and kind of shocked that there isn't general recognition that the ten years after China entered the WTO were not in aggregate great years for the US economy (jobless recovery, housing bubble fueled by imbalances, global financial crisis, great recession) -- certainly they weren't
as noted before, China's manufacturing trade surplus surged during this period (up 1 pp of GDP) ... and I always thought economists accepted that large swings in the trade balance did have an impact on the composition of employment and output ...
Actually I was most interested in the basic observation that a surge in imports had a differentiated regional impact -- which seems to be a very robust conclusion. I had already observed the "China" shock in my own data tracking so that wasn't news to me. 引用 @joefrancis505：My guess is that Dr Set
Wheels were spinning in Berlin, Brussels and Paris over the summer. Beijing didn't do itself any favors by rather flippantly dismissing European concerns even as China's surplus kept on rising 3/3 https://t.co/O340ESNPA9

Dr Setser citing Autor et al. on the "China shock": "People in those communities experienced bad job market outcomes, bad economic outcomes for many years. So that’s kind of the background. It changed a little bit how many economists think about the cost of trade." Dr Setser https://t.co/pQVmhnlJL
* a much bigger tariff differential was put forward in the campaign, and the 20% across the board (no exclusions, including for electronics) tariff of Trump 2's first year did have an impact (final assembly for computers left China nearly completely). the fentanyl tariff is no
The Trump 1 tariffs did have some positive effects -- notably insulating the US auto sector from the second China shock. I have not seen any real evidence that the 2.5% tariff differential between China and Europe is doing much at all* 2/2
Lighthizer (Trump 1) introduced a 25% tariff on about 1/2 of US imports in 2017. Those sectors are now 1/4 to 1/3 of current imports from China. Trump 2 now has tariffs on trade with China to 12.5% (after going much higher), and either 12.5% or 10% on most other trade partners 引用 @BaldingsWorld：
Recent conversations on here have reminded me of this excellent paper: https://t.co/EXOt8Z9fAB "part of the increase in credit from 1999 to 2007 in regions with exposure to trade is a consequence of higher credit demand associated with adverse labor market shocks"
Imports from China started to rise in 21/22 (notably of batteries) -- but on the export side, European auto exports looked resilient going into 2023 ... and then the bottom fell out in the Chinese market (UK's importance to Europe is also obvious in this chart) https://t.co/ao7PTcpXNX

2/3 You buy a bond for its yield (blue). By 2020, they were the lowest in US history. This killed returns (orange) Since then, yields have risen (price losses). This was the unwinding of QE and zero rates. That is done. Now yields are back and diverging from returns. https://t.co/bx6K1nkPSg
