A 7 percent decline in net foreign purchases of dollar assets will cause the dollar to fall. It will cause the prices of dollar-denominated assets to decline – equivalently, their yields will rise, eliminating the Greenspan Conundrum. These are two sides of the same coin: a declining dollar and higher US interest rates go together by interest parity. Insofar as a falling dollar implies imported inflation, the Fed will also be forced to raise policy rates faster than expected. These higher interest rates will damp down consumer spending by increasing the cost of consumer credit and limiting the rise in housing prices that has worked to sustain household net wealth in the absence of positive personal saving.
