Global Liquidity and Structural Factors
Key Questions
What is driving the expansion of global liquidity and its concentration?
Liquidity is expanding but remains concentrated, supported by research on trade openness, external vulnerability, and FDI determinants. This setup highlights risks of uneven easing and potential capital flow volatility.
Why are US Treasury yields surging and what risks does this pose?
Yields are rising amid triple pressures from debt, inflation, and populism, approaching levels described by economists as an 'Oh Shit Moment'. Private credit defaults have already hit record highs in April as a result.
How do structural factors influence FDI and capital flow risks globally?
Studies link trade openness and external vulnerability to FDI determinants, underscoring uneven liquidity distribution. Analysts note these dynamics could amplify capital flow risks as Treasury yields continue to surge.
