Fed's Kashkari: Investors are pulling out of U.S.
April 11 ,The Federal Reserve's Kashkari said Friday that recent market trends show investors are leaving the U.S., the safest place to invest, amid an escalation in Trump's trade war, according to Golden Ten. He said the trend has been the opposite of what you typically see in recent days as U.S. Treasury yields have risen and the U.S. dollar has weakened against global currencies. "Typically, when you see a significant increase in tariffs, I expect the dollar to appreciate. I think the fact that the dollar fell at the same time gives more credence to the notion of a shift in investor preferences." Kashkari stated. He added: "Investors around the world see the U.S. as the best place to invest, and if that were true, we'd be running a trade deficit. So one way that's showing up now is lower yields on all types of U.S. assets." ‘If the trade deficit goes down, investors might say, well, the U.S. is no longer the most attractive place to invest in the world, and then you'll see bond yields go up.’ However, Kashkari noted that he sees ‘stress’ in the workings of the market, not severe disruption.
