GLOBAL DOLLAR LIQUIDITY WEEKLY: VERY BULLISH!

AM | @agumack

With the release U.S. Federal Reserve latest weekly H.4.1 report on monetary aggregates, we are happy to announce very bullish news (in terms of the global economy): the EU Business School Finance Club Global Dollar Liquidity measure is growing at the fastest pace in ... ages! It stands now at $7.8 trillion:


USD million

Custody holdings  $3,370,216 +7.62%
Fed credit $4,431,256 +0.45%
Global Liquidity $7,801,472 +3.43%

The stock of custody holdings —US Treasury securities held by 'foreign' central banks— is up by an amazing $188.6bn this year. The implications (at least in my mind) are the following: (a) bullish EM currencies; (b) bearish US dollar; (c) bullish risk assets in general.

Famous last words? Yes, I know.
