Thanks @Brad_Setser. Your work on estimating the true size of China's current account surplus is thoughtful and helpful. Agree that there are important measurement issues and the income balance of China seems badly off. No disagreement here. The question is how does the measure 58.7K views · 211 likes · 41 reposts · 13 replies Open on X →

@GitaGopinath Dr. Gopinath, as I think you remember, there are concerns that China's reported current account surplus -- which has deviated significantly from the customs surplus net of visible services (tourism) over the last 5 years -- is understated 1/4 58.1K views · 39 likes · 4 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

@GitaGopinath As a matter of practice a currency can remain unhinged from a sortakinda intrinsic value for multiple decades. That said, the current surge of pipe dreams is buttressed on the previous success. For over a decade prior to the Plaza Accord, Yen had been a full float 2.3K views · 4 likes · 1 reposts · 1 replies Open on X →

At the Jackson Hole symposium @WenxinDu busts three myths about payment innovation. She concludes that: (1) 24/7 atomic real-time gross settlement is unlikely to be the future of wholesale payments. (2) retail payment frictions are not simply a technology problem. (3) https://t.

I won't re-list my disagreements but maybe there are some who wish to know how estimates of "undervaluation" are constructed so they can form their own view on the right policy response.

I very much enjoyed my Lunch with the @FT with @senoj_erialc. Among other things, I got to talk about the Global Economics Lab we are setting up at Harvard with fantastic affiliates from across universities. https://t.co/dFK3kiz3Lb 23.5K views · 233 likes · 27 reposts · 19 replies Open on X →

I found the piece on @DAcemogluMIT by @TheEconomist very odd. Reminded me of the Monty Python scene "What have the Romans every done for us?"
