The brightest hope for America’s economy is its foreign sales. Net trade added more than one percentage point to GDP growth in the year to the first quarter. The weak dollar is still helping American firms to take advantage of the strong demand in other parts of the world. But even here, the future is looking bleaker. Rising global inflation, spurred in part by countries with dollar pegs mimicking the Fed’s rate cuts, is now prompting central banks in many emerging economies to tighten monetary policy. That will curb demand for imports. America’s richer trading partners are struggling too.

Inflation in the rest of the world is bad for the US economy.

That because the US economy is now coupled with the rest of the world. US economy need to keep exports high.

We decoupled and then recoupled in reverse.

Like the Appolo lunar landing capsule, decoupled, turn around and recouple as it moved to the Moon.
