· 2026-10-09T03:00:52+00:00Korea is heading for a current account surplus of close to $500 billion this year -- That of course raises the question of how is the surplus being recycled. Korean purchases of US equities is definitely a big part of the answer, but no longer the entire answer 1/many
AI visual note: This chart displays Korea's Balance of Payments (BoP) flows as trailing 12-month sums in USD billions from December 2010 through February 2026, showing a dramatic recent surge in the current account (black line) reaching approximately $330 billion, with Korean purchases of foreign equities (yellow/gold) rising sharply to over $200 billion alongside foreign sales of Korean equities (orange) climbing to roughly $50 billion. The data visually supports the post's claim about Korea heading toward a massive current account surplus, illustrating how Korean purchases of foreign equities have become a dominant recycling channel for these surpluses alongside net equity flows (red dotted line).
· 2026-10-09T15:41:09+00:00I'm away from the computer, but if you dig into Canada's economic data it's clear they're in a massive recession and the government is trying to hide it.
AI visual note: A screenshot of Canada's Economic Releases calendar for September 2026, showing actual employment figures including a Net Change in Employment of 10.0k versus a forecast of -68.3k, an Unemployment Rate of 6.5%, and Full Time Employment Change of -35.9k. The image presents Canadian employment data that complicates the poster's recession claim—the actual job gains (+10.0k) significantly beat the expected decline (-68.3k), though the rising unemployment rate (6.5% vs. 6.4% prior) and substantial full-time job losses (-35.9k) could support arguments about underlying labor market weakness.
