11th Jun - US Open: I am forty

The markets are not liking the Spanish bailout announcement at all. After the initial 'buy risk', issues like subordination, Italy, Ireland and most importantly, where the bailout money comes from (hint: more debt) are questioned. For my coverage of the bailout, see the continuously updated Spanish Bailout: The Collection.
Woo-hoo, I am 40 years old today. It has not been quick - and definitely not painless.

What is globalization?mpettis
About ten years ago I published an article in Foreign Policy that I just recently re-read.  In the article I extended one of the arguments I made in my book, The Volatility Machine, that the globalization process is driven primarily by monetary expansion and the consequent increase in risk appetite.
