#wages are not exogenous. FX regimes shape adjustment asymmetrically. And "addressing domestic imbalances" in the #eurozone context has historically meant one thing: #austerity and #wage deflation for the weaker members

The paper's silence on #wage moderation and internal #devaluation is a striking omission. The #eurozone 's adjustment experience after 2010 is the most obvious case study: surplus positions in #Germany and the #Netherlands were not simply the product of virtuous "domestic #saving behaviour"

#Japanese and #Eurozone investors have strong incentive not to hedge USD exposure — otherwise they lose ca. 1.75%–3% annually.

It is an open secret that the #eurozone is dominated by a #neoliberal #supply -side policy, backed by #Berlin and Brussels. How is it even possible to expect a “wage-price spiral” in this economic environment? Wouldn't an unnecessary interest rate hike further prolong the already #stagnant economy?

Against this backdrop, #ECB is preparing to raise interest rates in the #eurozone b/c it fears a rise in inflation due to the supply shock in the #oil market. Isn’t this bizarre, given the ongoing #stagnation in the eurozone for more than 3y? chart @financialtimes.com www.ft.com/content/fe6d...
