Krugman on how the stronger dollar and the weaker euro will hurt U.S. export competitiveness and growth in 2015-2016

03/13/2015

Europe will export some of its problems to the U.S. in 2015-2016, as the euro goes to parity with the dollar and makes European products more competitive with U.S. products in global markets. This will hurt U.S. growth. Yet it is important for the U.S. that Europe get out of its deflationary trap, and as for exchange rates and flows of capital this is how the global economy works with little that the U.S. can do about it, says Krugman. He believes many Federal Reserve governors were clueless about the impact of this on the U.S. growth in their March meeting as they pushed for higher rates, merely assuming that the situation it will turn out positively for the U.S. Krugman says that with growth in wages sluggish and low inflation the Federal Reserve needs to be very careful as it considers raising interest rates.
