Interesting post by @CFR_org @BennSteil @bdellarocca explaining why “the gap between central-bank bond holdings and bank reserves is a fairly reliable indicator of where inflation is headed” and much more

How has China's "Zero Covid" policy affected its growth? Read the analysis by @BennSteil and @bdellarocca https://t.co/f63ke0QpBM

[Council on Foreign Relations @CFR_org]

The Chinese government is betting the house on keeping new homes popular and profitable, write @BennSteil and @bdellarocca. What does this mean for China’s economy? https://t.co/NiVJNENPWU

Russia may have hidden billions of dollars offshore that it can use to keep funding its war in Ukraine. If the West wants to use sanctions to punish Russia, it should follow the money, write @BennSteil and @bdellarocca.

[Foreign Affairs @ForeignAffairs]

If the West is to use sanctions to effectively pressure and punish Russia, it should assess how the Kremlin may have prepared to operate despite such restrictions—for instance, by hiding money in offshore accounts, write @BennSteil and @bdellarocca.

[Foreign Affairs @ForeignAffairs]

Western sanctions against Russia may be less watertight than reports suggest, write @BennSteil and @bdellarocca. There is evidence that the Kremlin has stashed billions in offshore accounts, beyond the reach of sanctions and asset freezes.

"We believe Putin’s regime may actually hold tens of billions of dollars’ worth of U.S. Treasuries that cannot currently be traced to Russia" WOW... @bdellarocca & Ben Steil highlight how important it is for the West to trace money flows in real-time https://t.co/a0qtZhYyHw

[Foreign Affairs @ForeignAffairs]

China may have helped Russia hide money and shield it from international sanctions, write @BennSteil and @bdellarocca. Evidence suggests that the Kremlin may have stashed billions of dollars in offshore accounts that it can draw on in a pinch.

Is China helping Russia evade sanctions with $38 billion stashed near EU headquarters in Brussels? @BennSteil & @bdellarocca investigate https://t.co/20gCk0Tb2W

Beijing knows its trajectory is ultimately unsustainable. But history suggests it won’t change course anytime soon, write @BennSteil and @bdellarocca. https://t.co/ag7o5bi7qL

[Benjamin Della Rocca @bdellarocca]

With Evergrande, though President Xi is trying to “send a warning that no firm is too big to fail,” history suggests that overborrowing is more likely to shift than to fall.

My latest with @BennSteil for @ForeignAffairs

[Council on Foreign Relations @CFR_org]

Does Evergrande’s fall from grace mark the end of debt-fueled growth in China?

[Council on Foreign Relations @CFR_org]

"Fed officials are trying to maintain “credibility” by doing what they predicted they would do—even though current inflation data no longer validate those predictions," argue @BennSteil and @bdellarocca. https://t.co/uGPJPQJZlP

[Benjamin Della Rocca @bdellarocca]

My latest with @BennSteil for @WSJ.

"The market is not looking for the Fed to be omniscient about its own behavior, which is mindlessly easy," but to "adapt[] policy to developments it did not foresee."

Read @BennSteil and @bdellarocca on the consequences of Trump’s steel tariffs, the rise in the U.S. steel industry’s fortunes over the past few months, and the value of cooperative trade relations:
