Nancy, I hadn't thought of putting in those terms but I guess most central bank to central bank stuff is done in a fashion to limit market impact, sterilized. After all they are on the same side and go out of their way to cooperate and not cause each other problems. I haven't taken a look at M3 recently but I suspect whatever is impacting it has a domestic root. I like the Economist and appreciate their cynical attitude about many things. The Japanese indeed have a pretty miserable record on their international investments. It is worth pointing out that not only did they have a profit on the Treasuries but they bought many of the dollars they are now selling in the 80s. Nice profit on those as well. BTW I saw your post on the Treasury Bond Futures thread. I like your comment that ...we are getting monetary policy by reputation......rather than commitment... Henry
