An Open Letter to Beijing: Where's the Stimulus? (w/ Mark Blyth & Adam Tooze)

Professor Mark Blyth and Professor Adam Tooze explore how coronavirus is laying bare the hidden risks embedded within our financial systems and how central banks worldwide are scrambling to paper over those chasms of danger. In this wide-ranging discussion, they explore China, and specifically the People’s Bank of China (PBOC) as the “dog that hasn’t barked.” They also explore the U.S. dollar and central bank swap lines, and capital flight in China, but the main theme is fragile just how fragile our global financial system is, and how it relies on ever greater injections of liquidity in order to stay afloat.

Is the Federal Reserve Rewarding Corporate Mischief? (w/ Mark Blyth & Adam Tooze)

In this clip, Professor Mark Blyth and Professor Adam Tooze explore the Federal Reserve as the dominant actor in moving markets at this unprecented juncture. They analyze how coronavirus is laying bare the hidden risks embedded within our financial systems and how central banks worldwide are scrambling to paper over those chasms of danger. To them, it seems that the Federal Reserve has rewritten its remit, and they discuss how rather than try and keep prices stable or keep unemployment low, the sole focus of the Fed right now seems to be supporting asset prices at any cost, even if that means bailing out leveraged entities who took on too much risk. They also explore how the Fed’s central bank swap lines are affecting markets worldwide, specifically in Turkey. Mark Blyth is the William R. Rhodes ’57 Professor of International Economics and Professor of Political Science and International and Public Affairs at Brown University.

Professor Blyth views the entire crisis through the lens of renowned author Nassim Taleb. Mark Blyth is the William R.
