Had a fantastic time at the Alternative Macroeconomics Theories: Developing Countries and Türkiye workshop at METU, Ankara! Loved the great discussions, meeting brilliant grad students, and reconnecting with friends. Hope to see more events like this on structural economic issues.

Bu mesele akillara Bianchi et al (2023) JME makalesini getiriyor: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Makalenin yazarlarına göre Trump'ın ilk döneminde Fed ile ilgili attığı her bir tweet faiz oranı beklentisini 0.26 baz puan düşürüyor. Mevcut koşullarda bu etkinin çok daha fazla çıkması olası.

not clear why China should agree with such an accord. However, one way or another, Trump administration will have to find ways of depreciating the dollar especially since tariffs will likely fail fulfilling Trump's wishes.

That's why we will see enormous pressure on Fed in the coming days.

Rebalancing the world economy: Right idea but wrong approach Richard Samans on why tariffs won’t fix global imbalances and why Europe may be best positioned to lead a bold G3 solution with the U.S. and China.

www.brookings.edu/articles/reb...

"A Plaza/Louvre Accord or Bretton Woods-like moment appears to be approaching one way or the other, most likely during this or the next U.S. administration and quite possibly later this year."

Sounds more like "wishful thinking" since it is not 1985 and also...

How Turkey’s opposition plans to take on Erdoğan Republican People’s Party head Özgür Özel outlines strategy after arrest of star campaigner triggered mass protests

"Özel added that if a government-imposed ban made İmamoğlu’s candidacy impossible, “we will determine the most suitable candidate, and carry out a campaign based around İmamoğlu’s campaign for freedom”

İmamoğlu aday olamazsa başkasını yaparız demek iktidara ne mesaj veriyor acaba?

"I've repeatedly said the Fed has two duties, and I believe that monetary policy is a jewel box that's got to be preserved. And then they have regulatory policies. And I think we can have more of a discussion."

So, reading between the lines, could this be a sign?

"One possibility is for Congress to remove the Fed’s regulatory powers and cabin its authority to monetary policy."

Karşı tarafın gözü dönmüşlüğünü görünce akla ister istemez Sarıkaya üstadın bu eseri geliyor. Mesele imza kampanyası düzenlemek değil elbette, İmamoğlu'nun tutuklanmasından sonraki süreçte "örgütlü" tepkinin çok cılız kalması ve mücadele yöntemi olarak en pasif eylem şekillerinin seçilmesi.

Bu hiç de düşük ihtimal değil bu arada. Trump'ın Fed üzerindeki kontrolünü artırmak için yakın zamanda yapabileceği hamleler de var üstelik:

Exclusive: Some European officials weigh if they can rely on Fed for dollars under Trump Some European central banking and supervisory officials are questioning whether they can still rely on the U.S. Federal Reserve to provide dollar funding in times of market stress, six people familiar with the matter said, casting some doubt over what has been a bedrock of financial stability.

Gündemin içinde bu kaynamış, ancak çok önemli. Orta vadede Trump Fed üzerindeki baskısını artırır ve bir şekilde bu dolar swap hatlarını ilga etmeyi başarırsa dünya finansal sistemi duman olur.

Timely paper on inflation with a strong emphasis on the supply side, albeit missing many crucial references.

If this somehow makes sense (clearly it doesn't), shouldn't they introduce import subsidies for products from deficit nations instead of a 10 per cent flat tariff?

Bu tam Türk işi bir politika tasarımı olmuş. Bütün dünyayı çalkalayan, uzun dönemli etkilerinin ağır olma potansiyeli çok yüksek olan böylesi bir hamlenin üzerinde maksimum 15 saniye falan düşünülmüş olması uluslararası ticaret üzerine çalışan ekonomistlerin canını yakıyor olmalı.
