Did the JPM squeeze "warning" (the hyperbole was a dead giveaway) expire like a tornado warning would? I checked with NWS, nothing there.
One argument I heard was that the $US outside the country, just like here, were created from loans.
Rather than repatriating, they would be used to pay down debt. This supposedly would remove those dollars from the system.
With the inflation formula being too many dollars chasing too few goods, it could be a wash.
The OPEC cut is fewer goods but debt paydown could result in fewer outstanding dollars, at least overseas.
I'm not sure if I agree with that.
Loans made to overseas entities by US banks would result in dollars returning to US banks as they are paid down.
It's a mess.
Higher fuel prices will work through either way.
