With Turkey being hauled back "into line", one of big questions for 2021: how intense will Brazil’s fiscal politics and debt market politics get? How will domestic politics play out? How will international markets react? @SoberLook thedailyshot.com/2021/01/04/us-… https://t.co/XJwC3EpnON

In gauging China’s reaction to the 2020 shock, you have to look beyond fiscal policy to consider total social financing. And that has implications for the entire region e.g. Australia & AUD. thedailyshot.com/2021/01/04/us-… https://t.co/dOpooB17uf

One of striking things about US macroeconomic balance during 2020 shock has been lack of adjustment in current account, unlike in 2008. Dollar decline not enough to offset demand effects. More to come? @SoberLook https://t.co/4Apba4IOJ5

@IlanStrauss @SoberLook Fair enough. Actually global GDP would be the best denominator. Short of that, raw $bns actually do give a pretty good idea of what kind of an impulse this delivers to China/EU etc.
