What this episode covers

In this conversation, Michael Howell and Pascal Hügli explore the late stages of the current liquidity cycle, noting how policymakers are working to extend it by injecting more liquidity. They examine how a weakening dollar supports global liquidity, the relevance of the MOVE index, and how Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent aims to shorten duration—despite criticizing his predecessor, Janet Yellen. The discussion also covers the role of stablecoins in the U.S. debt landscape, why they differ from the eurodollar market, and how their adoption could inhibit bank credit growth. Finally, they consider how these developments point toward a Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) framework.
