What source were they using for M3 growth? Bart's M3 equivalent seems to be at approx. 9% in Oct, much higher than the stated U.S rate in your post of 4.8%. For what its worth, M2 was in that range in October and is in the low 5's now.

>>>What source were they using for M3 growth? Bart's M3 equivalent seems to be at approx. 9% in Oct, much higher than the stated U.S rate in your post of 4.8%. nowandfutures.com; I stand corrected, I pulled the data from an article in financial sense. They used the term "broad money supply growth around the globe". In my mind as I creating the post I seem to have interpreted "broad money supply" to M3. If they were comparing like to like (IE M2 to M2 or M3 to M3) then the the same theme would appear to apply. Scroll down to the part of the article that begins with PANDORA'S BOX HAS BEEN OPENED. financialsense.com I tried to find the original The Economist article but most of their site requires a subscription.
