👉The #Chicago #Fed National Financial Conditions Index’s (NFCI) Nonfinancial Leverage Subindex (blue line) and the Adjusted National Financial Conditions Index (red line) are shown in the graph. These indexes provide information on the overall health and stability of financial markets. 👉When both indexes approach or exceed positive values, it indicates tightening #financial #conditions and increased #economic uncertainties. Historically, such tightening has led to slower economic growth and a higher risk of recession. 👉The indexes approaching positive values reflect market concerns about future economic growth. Tightening financial conditions can mean more difficult access to credit and reduced investment spending, which can increase the risk of economic downturn. 👉Recently, the movement of these indexes towards positive values signals concerns about future economic growth and potential recession risks. Therefore, it is crucial to closely monitor financial conditions and macroeconomic indicators. #economy #finance #federalreserve #sustainability #macroeconomy #data #marketing #management #banking

The Mirage of Falling R-stars: IMF Paper Challenges Conventional Wisdom Our recent IMF Working Paper 2024/161 (by Aleš Bulíř and Jan Vlček) challenges the belief that the natural real interest rate (r-star) has been declining towards zero in recent decades (https://lnkd.in/g_WbJQYc). The paper argues that once equilibrium real exchange rate appreciation is accounted for, r-star is no longer found to be declining to near or below zero in the 2000s and 2010s.The findings suggest the recent decline in real interest rates may not be driven by a diminishing r-star, but by shocks pushing market rates below equilibrium. This challenges conventional wisdom of a secular r-star decline and has implications for monetary policy and economic analysis.
