Overseas data point to serious enough trouble it is causing foreign official institutions to take evasive actions. But it isn't just offshore banks; data for domestic US banks shows correlated behavior.

More central banks are now cutting rates than hiking them. This is an especially critical development since "monetary" authorities are typically among the last to recognize, admit, then act in response to serious weakness. Eurodollar University's conversation w/Steve Van MetreTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_EDUhttps://www.eurodollar.universityRealClearMarkets Essays: https://bit.ly/38tL5a7

Those then affect the banking system's credit impulse which either adds to or takes away from the general economy depending on what CBers wish to accomplish. Of course, almost none of that is true. How did it get to be this way? Answering that question reveals a lot more than you might think. Eurodollar University's Money & Macro AnalysisECB Monetary Policy Decisions October 26, 2023https://www.ecb.europa.eu/press/pr/date/2023/html/ecb.mp231026~6028cea576.en.htmlBundesbank TPIhttps://www.bundesbank.de/en/tasks/monetary-policy/outright-transactions/transmission-protection-instrument-tpi--896158FOMC Transcript August 1, 2011https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/files/fomc20110801confcall.pdfMilton Friedman: A Program for Monetary Stability (1960)https://miltonfriedman.hoover.org/objects/57536/a-program-for-monetary-stabilityFOMC Transcript June 27-28, 2000https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/files/FOMC20000628meeting.pdfRBI  Michael Debabrata Patra: Lost in Transmission?

Don't call it a comeback, deflation has been here the whole time. Most just forgot about it or were distracted by the combined summertime of soft landing and oil prices. The downside of the disinflation rebound and the weakness it is revealing have brought all the bad deflationary feelings back up to the surface. Eurodollar University's conversations w/Steve Van MetreTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_AIPhttps://www.eurodollar.universityRealClearMarkets Essays: https://bit.ly/38tL5a7

It's not just misplaced, even the worst Treasury auctions don't actually matter. Interest rates have nothing to do with how much debt the government issues. It's sad, it's not right, but that's the eurodollar world we live in. Uncle Sam has issued almost $20 trillion in debt over the last dozen years, and the long bond yield has barely moved - even with the Fed spiking ST rates.Eurodollar University's Money & Macro AnalysisFOMC statement May 9, 2010https://www.federalreserve.gov/newsevents/pressreleases/monetary20100509a.htmTwitter: https://twitter.com/JeffSnider_AIPhttps://www.eurodollar.universityRealClearMarkets Essays: https://bit.ly/38tL5a7
