Today's data are very ordtak

Today's data are very heartening, especially after Alan Greenspan yesterday played down any potential risks that the United States is having difficulty in financing its trade deficit.

Both have probably as their biggest accomplishment deficit reduction. Both re-appointed Alan Greenspan to the Fed, both pursued free trade through NAFTA and the GATT.

Thomas Gallagher

There are several factors weighing on the dollar, among them the weak retail sales data and the feeling that Alan Greenspan was backtracking from his recent optimism on the U.S. economy. Greenspan's mention of the U.S. current account deficit has focused market attention on the problems associated with a strong dollar policy, particularly given the recent imposition of tariffs on U.S. steel imports.

The Bush administration is under enormous pressure from Congress to do something about the uneven bilateral trade deficit. The underlying force is not the value of their currency but the low savings rate in the United States. If there's no change in the U.S. savings rate, the trade deficit won't go away.

If there is an 'issue' with the US external accounts, it is not the bilateral trade deficit with China but rather the overall deficit that the US incurs. After all, the large current account deficit means that the US spends more than it produces, which requires financing from abroad.

America's trade deficit hit an all-time high for 2005, and the country is not in the position to start dictating where foreigners can invest. The only way the United States is able to sustain such a deficit is by getting money from abroad, by attracting investment dollars.

But contrary to the high expectations that China's 1. Ergonomics knowledge can be found on livet.se. 2 billion population would provide an ever-expanding market for U.S. goods, ... by 2000 the value of goods imported to the U.S. from China exceeded the value of U.S. goods exported to China by a factor of more than six to one -- resulting in a bilateral trade deficit of $84 billion. Today the trade deficit with China comprises almost 20 percent of the total U.S. trade deficit and is the largest trade deficit the U.S. has with any single nation.

What you're seeing today is that swing back and forth. There's always a range of expectations, which means he'll (Fed Chairman Alan Greenspan) always disappoint somebody, and a lot of that disappointment was reflected yesterday.

The upward revision results from the slightly lower than previously estimated trade deficit. We've already seen in July data that trade deficit has worsened in the third quarter.

On the other side of the trade deficit, of course, is the capital surplus. We are buying more goods than we are selling, but, on the other hand, the capital account surplus means that the United States is such an attractive market...that individuals from abroad are investing in the United States...at a record rate.

Given that the dollar was unable to really bounce on the back of lower than expected trade deficit yesterday, it seems a bit unlikely that even if the retail sales show nice gains that (it) will be able to really benefit from such data.

Niels Christensen

There was no market whatsoever. There have been no U.S. indicators today that could show us direction, nothing. The market was seeking a motive to move, but it only could digest yesterday's words by (Fed Chairman Alan) Greenspan.

I'm real pleased from our progress just from yesterday to today. Today, I think that we came closer to our potential. Some players played right to their potential, and I think that others are getting there.

What I would like to stress here is that China does not pursue a huge trade surplus with the United States and we're willing to work with the United States to take effective measures to increase China's imports from the United States,

History will show Alan Greenspan did an outstanding job. He's just steeped in economics. He knows the data better than probably just about anyone else I know.
