Lot of comment on RBI becoming Pro Growth & keeping Inflation in back ground. Few Points to ponder.
- Inflation is being pushed on back burner globally. ECB moved from Inflation to Growth long back. US Fed has publicly stated to tolerate higher Inflation.

 RBI pre Inflation targeting framework was managing Growth, Inflation, Govt Borrowing, Rupee and Financial stability remarkably well. Nobel Laurate Joseph Stiglitz complemented RBI stating that US Sub prime crisis would have been averted if Dr Reddy was US Fed Governor.
Despite stupendous success of the RBI in managing conflicting needs of Indian Economy, Inflation Targetting Framework was established without proper definition/measurement of Inflation.
This was like attributing credit of Mahabharat Victory to Single minded focus of Arjun (could only see Bird's eye while shooting arrow) than all round guidance of Shree Krishna.
Oddly Central Banks around the world are now following RBI in managing conflicting objectives as per the need of economy.
There are several omissions in calculating Inflation in India
- Globally feature improvements is considered for Inflation. Feature enhanced product will be non inflationary despite price increases. We look at TV price irrespective of its transition from B & W to LCD.
Globally Central Banks focus on Inflation excluding Food and Fuel. They accept the limitation that monetary policy can't influence OPEC or Rain God. We focus on Inflation where major part comes from Food & Fuel. Strangely Gold is part of Inflation calculation.
Calculation of Inflation is a different issue due to limitation on data capturing / price variation across India. For e.g WPI Inflation was 1.48 % in Oct 20 & 1.32 % in Sept 20. CPI Inflation was 7.61 % in Oct 20 & 7.34 % in Sept 20.
If we measure effectiveness of monetary policy from WPI it is excessively tight as Inflation is below RBI's target range.
From CPI angle it is excessively soft as Inflation is above RBI's target range.
Argument of High liquidity keeping CPI elevated doesn't make sense as YTD Bank credit growth is Rs 5.55 Lac crore (PY Rs 7.15 Lac crore). Bank Credit Growth is down Rs 1.60 Lac crore YTD. How can liquidity push inflation higher If it remains trapped between RBI & Banks ?
Higher Inflation impacting poor people also doesn't take into account concessional food grains given under PDS & other welfare schemes. Actual Food Inflation is much lower than reported food inflation if we take into account those data.
India Inc is running at much lower capacities as reflected in 7 % sales degrowth in NIFTY cos for Sept 20 quarter. Lack of demand is witnessed across sectors as reflected in negative GDP growth in FY 21. Supply chain disruptions are probably a bigger contributor to Inflation
Interest cost indirectly contributes to Inflation. Most MSME borrows money at high single digit / low double digit real interest rates. The depositors don't benefit from those rates as intermediarion cost remains high due to non resolutions of NPAs.
Raising Interest rates restricts creation of supply and increases cost of product & services. This creates a vicious cycle of higher Inflation, higher interest rates & lower Growth. Arguments of tight monetary policy for controlling Inflation overlooks this crucial aspect.
Our peers have brought inflation under control by lowering rates, pumping liquidity, supporting entrepreneurship and creating supply more than the demand. Our focus should be to create supply rather than curtail demand over long term to control Inflation.
Glad that the RBI has got the Shakti to come back to its original Krishna Avatar of managing conflicting objectives of Growth, Inflation, Rupee, Financial Stability and Govts Borrowing Program.
ECB & US Fed can ignore Inflation but India can't argument, doesn't take into account that they are growing at lower single digit & we need to grow at lower double digit. Negative real interest rates has been a catalyst for faster growth by encouraging investments in many places

Thread – Why the Latest Pelosi-backed $2T Stimulus Bill Went Nowhere

1. The Dementiacrats have been holding more virus relief hostage in order to force Republicans to cave and vote for another $2T Dementiacrat porkulus bill instead.

2. Senate Dementiacrats have voted against the Republican’s $500B relief bill targeted at REAL PEOPLE (small business and the jobless) multiple times.

3. A $2T virus relief bill was ramrodded through by House Democrats in March through July when it was signed into law by the President. It contained junk that had nothing to do with virus relief but was the price that Republicans had to pay to get relief to suffering Americans.

4. Dementiacrat bill that San Fran Nan wants to push down our throats now contains $2T more of this crap, as well as relief directly targeted at Blue states to cover pension shortfalls and other past Dementiacrat mismanagement.

5. It’s no wonder why Republicans are telling her to “piss off” on the latest $2T porkulus bill.

It is a little frustrating to see the response many analysts had to the GDP growth data Chinese released today. These numbers aren’t especially good, and they certainly shouldn’t have been surprising. Back in April and May, when most

were projecting negative or barely positive GDP growth for China in 2020 (the OECD, for example, expected China’s GDP to contract by 3.7%), I insisted that GDP growth for 2020 would be positive, and probably between 2% and 3%.

Today, it was reported as 2.3%. How did...

And that’s exactly what happened. While GDP grew by 6.5% in the fourth quarter, even with substantial tailwinds its retail sales measure – a proxy for consumption – was only up 4.6%, and it was down 3.9% overall in 2020.

1. Been excited about @JoeNBC's sustained convo today about @KBAndersen's new book Evil Geniuses: The Unmaking of America which explains how the Republican Party radicalized OVER ECONOMICS over the past 30 years. It was launched w the radical tax cuts in Reagan's presidency, but

2. as the GOP evolved through the 90s & 2000s they became dogmatic about their economic philosophy- until it became a radical litmus test/position the party followed even when conditions screamed for different policy. It was a MIRACLE the party acted to stabilize the economy at

3. at the end of 2008 when it was crashing down around us (though they just barely did & some didn't and that's bc it was before the Great Purges of 2010,2012, & 2014). America doesn't know the hit job the GOP did on the American economy as they dogmatically pursued tax cuts to

4. the exclusion of everything else while denying any policy that could grow wages or improve the economic lives of the bottom 80% aside from the 2 or 3 times Ds managed to squeeze through policy while in charge (minimum wage increase in 2007-which was the 1st time in a decade

5. and now, of course, its been another decade. It's actually a miracle wages (all wages bc when the min wage is artificially low it affects all the wages above it, that's how you end up w $10 per hr EMTs & teachers) aren't even more out of wack w inflation. As @JoeNBC points out

TRUMP: "I've decided to eat babies."

PEOPLE: "He can't eat babies, that's super illegal."

TRUMP, on TV, eating babies, not even cooking them first: "People are saying that I really am the best baby-eater, folks."

NYT: "Trump Vs. Babies: The Rhetoric On Both Sides Must Stop"

Jeff Flake tweets: "It is a sad day in America when this callous man can eat babies live on TV"

Jeff Flake, 10 seconds later, votes to help him install a series of 4,000 new judges that are very, very pro-babyphagia.

Judge Kavanaugh, found drunk in a Capitol Hill closet: "I LIKE BEER. OKAY? I LIKE BEER AND I LIKE BABIES AND THAT'S NOT SO WRONG. THAT'S RIGHT. I LIKE BABIES DIPPED IN BEER. I JUST DIP EM. IN THE BEER. THE BABIES. THE BABIES I EAT. OKAY? THAT'S AMERICA."

Mike Pence, wringing his hands about the baby-eating: "We must take care of our children. Our youngest must be protected on this troubling day."

Mike Pence then invites a Baby Chef to say a prayer.

Twitter Users: "It's a distraction technique! Trump eating babies is trying to DISTRACT YOU from ALL THE OTHER HORRORS, which are themselves distractions from the BABY-EATING. It's DISTRACTIONS ALL THE WAY DOWN."

Trump: *eats tons of babies at a rally*

*literal tons of babies*
