I am certainly expecting goods deficits of 5% of GDP or more and goods and services deficits of 4% of GDP or more for the remainder of the year. Momentum on import side is clear ... notwithstanding Trump's tariffs 3/3 https://t.co/JPaVCd4fUl
To repeat an old line, in the battle between Trump's tariffs and conventional macroeconomics, conventional macroeconomics is currently winning. The August goods and services deficit was bigger than any deficit apart from those deficits associated with tariff front running 1/ https://t.co/MPrPSGOSh
The 2025-26 U.S. tariffs have renewed the question of how much of a tariff reaches consumers, and how quickly. In today's post, the authors trace tariffs through import, domestic producer, and retail prices for U.S. consumer goods. https://t.co/qKgJSPqQKq

纽约联储研究称，截至2026年2月，关税对商品价格通胀贡献2.9个百分点；若没有关税，商品价格会略有下降。研究估算，关税税率每提高1个百分点，约四分之一会在一年内体现于消费者价格。
Brad Setser认为，关税向消费价格的传导幅度低于其预期。文中称，每提高1个百分点关税税率，约四分之一会在一年内反映到消费价格；引用纽约联储数据称，截至2026年2月，关税使商品价格通胀增加2.9个百分点，若无关税，商品价格将略有下降。
The TIC (US capital flow) data is lagged and there isn't any number for August yet. The last strong print for Treasuries was in May; June and July were weak. But it sure looks like the world wants to finance San Francisco much than it wants to finance DC right now 2/2 https://t.co/yfjkrSBup4
The US is now running -- see the August data - a 4% of GDP goods and services trade deficit. How is that being financed -- strong foreign demand for US risk assets ... 1/2 https://t.co/NUsmoSJYRh
I am more open to a European 301 than Mr. Lamy -but do want to better understand how a "“structural rebalancing instrument” would work. I have also been thinking about some kind of special safeguard tied to macroeconomic imbalances, which sounds similar EU wheels are moving

I do think tariff differentials matter, not just the absolute level -- and so do America's trade partners. Everyone last year negotiated to get a slightly lower tariff than their neighbors/ trade competitors. The impact of 12.5% on China was muted by going to 10% on almost

so we are where we are ... US manufacturing and ag exports are down 2.5% of GDP from their levels in the 1990s ... and are incredibly small v the US economy (~ 4 % of GDP) ... and that decline hasn't actually been offset by growing IP exports (even counting "irish" FDI profits) https://t.co/LZqI4SJo
It also seems obvious to me that "China" together with the dollar's strength (especially v Asia) explains why manufacturing output stopped growing with overall output after 2000 (a break from 70 to 99 ...) (the rising real deficit in goods indicates this wasn't just a shift in https://t.co/uCTcqXPM
