The Other Consumer Confidence Report
by Brian Pretti

What the heck are they thinking now? You know who we mean, the foreign investment community. Who else? Hopefully without wildly belaboring the point, we remain convinced that the US is ultimately going to face a funding issue down the road. Maybe not a funding issue in terms of being able to borrow funds, but rather the issue is the cost at which funds will ultimately be made available to the US. This is exactly what we addressed when we penned the Fun With Fundingdiscussion last month. Put yourself in the shoes of the foreign investment community. Many moons ago, you started recycling trade related dollars back into US financial assets. In essence, you were able to facilitate a little mercantilist economics. By buying US financial assets (primarily bonds) you effectively helped keep US interest rates low and enabled the relatively blinded by asset inflation US consumer borrowing and spending (on your export products). As commodity prices rose, the BRIC nations and OPEC got into the dollar recycling game in a big way. If you remember the Fun with Funding article, one of the tables in the discussion showed us that since May of 2006, 100% of foreign purchases of US Treasuries were undertaken by Brazil, Russia, India, China and OPEC. Japan was a net seller over the period. Quite the happy circumstance... while it lasted. Full article.
