1/9: Monetary policy shapes a country's economic landscape. It involves central banks managing money supply, interest rates, and inflation. A sound policy ensures financial stability, economic growth, and stable inflation. #Crypto 
2/9: Objectives of monetary policy typically focus on price stability, maintaining low and stable inflation rates. This is crucial for promoting economic growth and consumer confidence. High inflation erodes purchasing power, while deflation leads to decreased spending.
3/9: Another objective is full employment, where everyone who wants to work can find a job. Unemployment can cause social and economic problems. Monetary policy helps address these issues by stimulating job creation and growth. #EconomicGrowth

By the Law of Unintended Consequences, every time we try to fix A, we create problems B, C, D, E, etc.

Today’s @federalreserve’s Federal Open Market Committee (#FOMC) meeting witnessed another historic 75 bps increase to policy rate levels (to a range of 3.0% to 3.25%) in an effort for the #CentralBank to manage its number one priority: fighting persistently high #inflation.
The #Fed, including in today’s meeting statement and in the Chair’s press conference, has been clearer than arguably any central bank in identifying its current goal and moving #InterestRates and #liquidity provision to achieve it.

Long periods of #dollar-strength often ended with massive financial dislocations like the Latin American #debt crisis of the 80s and the Asian crisis of the 90s.
Oppositely, long periods of a weakening dollar came with strong markets like between 2003-2007.

Last Thursday (s. ; or for the full live stream, s. ), @SevimDagdelen from #DieLinke has discussed with @RaniaKhalek & @EugenePuryear esp. the recently decided & billion-dollar rearmament of the German #Bundeswehr...
...as a result of the #RussianFederation's military invasion of #Ukraine, as officially justified by the #GermanFederalGovernment. A recommendable interview! Besides her opposition to such rearmament & the associated fundamental departure...
...from the so-called „#Entspannungspolitik“ established by #WillyBrand & #EgonBahr for #Germany's relationship with the #USSR (& also its territorially largest & politically strongest successor state in the form of the #RussianFederation),...
With respect to the data, #coreCPI (excluding volatile food and #energy components) came in at 0.6% month-over-month and at a high 6% year-over-year.
Meanwhile, headline #CPI data printed at a strong 0.6% month-over-month and came in at 7.5% year-over-year, the greatest increase over a 12-month period since February 1982.
Additionally, the @federalreserve’s favored measure of #inflation, #corePCE, increased 0.5% in December, bringing the year-over-year figure for the measure to 4.9%, as of that month.
In last 5 years, Central bankers across developed countries wanted higher inflation to raise rates so that they can cushion when next time crisis hit. But, now when inflation is so higher, most of developed countries central bankers claiming as transitory!

Do central banks having any fiduciary responsibility towards citizen of that countries in some other citizens as well or is it towards the people or govt who hired them in first place!
Most of the central banks fail to anticipate any events ahead of the market. At least some market participants are savvy enough to get the clear picture ahead of the events.

September witnessed a somewhat disappointing nonfarm #payroll gain of 194,000 jobs, which was weaker than the upwardly revised August gain of 365,000 and was well below #economists’ consensus estimates of nearly 490,000 jobs.
Clearly, there are significant #labor supply issues limiting the pace of recovery. Further, the #unemployment rate declined meaningfully, from 5.2% to 4.8% in Sept, and average hourly #earnings saw gains of 0.62% m-o-m, which brings the measure to 4.58% greater on a y-o-y basis.
The most interesting part of today’s #JobsReport, and much of the other recent #economic/corporate data, is that it’s the supply of resources that’s creating systemic pricing pressure, as well as consequently dulling growth of an #economy not lacking demand in virtually any area.
It was 73 degrees and sunny in #JacksonHole, Wyoming, today; a perfect day for all those who were there….
Yet, there were no #monetary policy officials present at the traditional location of the @KansasCityFed’s late-summer #economic policy symposium, since they were conducting a “virtual symposium.”
That symposium provided #ChairPowell the opportunity to lay out a reasonably sunny perspective on the U.S. #economy, but also one that was not out of the woods yet, in terms of Covid variant risk and a maximum #employment target still to be achieved.
Thanks to @steve_sedgwick & @cnbcKaren for having me on #CNBC #SquawkBox this AM.

ING Bank 1/6: #Riksbank to stay cautious despite recent economic resilience
Despite a rise in Covid-19 cases and fresh restrictions, recent Swedish data has held up better than hoped. That means little need for fresh #Riksbank stimulus, though we'd still expect a cautious tone.

ING Bank 2/6: The central bank looks set to signal flat interest rates until at least 2024, but still, we expect the krona to strengthen gradually later this year.
The Riksbank meeting this week should have a limited impact on Sweden's krona.

Pandemic and environmental crises profoundly modify demand and supply for some goods and services.
This radically reshuffles firms' asset values on financial markets and creates substantial financial risks.

Financial markets are not good at assessing transition risks linked to pandemic and environmental crises. They are mispricing them.
This is acknowledged by central banks and financial supervisors.

In a world where people still starve (though thankfully proportionately fewer over time) and material needs in general are unsated, there can be no #savingsglut. There CAN be misallocations of saving -due to corrupted price signals or corrupted polities, or both- but that’s...
...a very different matter.
Secondly, ‘saving’ is supposed to represent an available resource -whether for consumption or production, whether material or human. It is NOT something which magically appears when the #centralbank & its minions sit behind a keyboard...

If #JeromePowell or M #Lagarde cause a million smackers to appear in everyone’s account overnight, bank balances will have risen; #savings, will NOT. Even a man as unnuanced as Mussolini got this, sneering that Italians’ wealth would not rise if they all had more printed...
#NewNormal" continues. After #CentralBank of #Yemen and #Iraq, we are having mission with #CentralBank of #Libya. Concluded a very productive #meeting with colleagues from #CentralBank and #IMF for a #Islamicfinance IMF mission through #Cisco #webmex. #riskmanagement #Libya
Other than #Sudan and #Iran, #Libya is going to be #third #country in the world to have full-fledged #Islamicfinance system after #transition is completed. It requires a significant progress on Islamic finance #regulation and #supervision, which is #underway.
Happy to be part of last three years engagement, through IMF, with them on various topics. Many thanks to my good friends supervisors Haithem Elyacoubi, anwar tantoush, Hatem Salem, Abdulhamid, Dr. Mukhtar for excellent discussion. I hope this will be a very good #IMF mission.
