Goldilocks' Comments and Global Economic News Wednesday AM 6-19-24

Good Morning Dinar Recaps,

Putin visits Vietnam. Why? “The main issues relate to shoring up economic and commercial ties, including arms sales.”

Putin and Vietnam's leaders were said to have been working on an agreement regarding ruble-dong currency transactions through the banking system. This meeting is expected to enable payment for goods and services.

Currently, Vietnam is expanding the value of its currency through the expansion of its elderly population through healthcare, commercial trade, and military arms expansion.

Proper military spending over GDP stabilizes and promotes currency values of a country. Why? Money spent on the military ends up in the private sector as payment for goods and services the military requires.

Each of these are indicators of a growing economy that justifies a higher value through demand on their currency inside a Market Economy.    Vision Times   Education CFR   Nature

Nervous about the market? Here’s one thing you could do if shares start sinking fast

Jack Janasiewicz: The bottom line … is that there’s a disinflationary impulse coming. I think [Fed Chair Jerome] Powell was right to sort of look at [hotter-than-expected] January, February, March inflation data as maybe a little bit of an anomaly or a pause but not a reversal of that trend that’s going to continue to head to that 2% target.

So, again, heading in the right direction, it may be slower than people would like. But we’re going to 2%.

And then the other thing I would point to as well — the labor side of their mandate is becoming a little more focused. [The Fed] is one of the only central banks that has the dual mandate with price stability and full employment. It feels like the price stability side is coming into better focus.

As the economy slows a little bit here, and you start to see the unemployment rate tick a little bit higher … the Fed [could start] to focus on making sure that the unemployment rate doesn’t start to rise.

That could be the trigger for rate cuts. So we’re not ruling out rate cuts by September. We could easily have a cut. The data will tell us that, but I think the big takeaway for us is [inflation] going in the right direction.   CNN
