Blinder cites the reasons why the stock market declines are showing a disconnect with the economy in the U.S. which benefits from low oil prices, and the small impact of a slowdown in China on the U.S. economy. Yet other reasons may account for nervousness of investors, as Grep Ip points out in the WSJ, the lack of support from the Fed with its gradual rate hike path, and lack of support from the Chinese government with its policy of reducing debt and no significant stimulus.

The disconnect between falling stock markets and the economy in the U.S., China and Europe in 2016

01/21/2016

The growing economy in the U.S. with over 200,000 jobs created on average for each month in 2015, the gradual recovery in Europe, and the stabilizing economy in China, suggest that nervousness in financial markets stems from other factors. The weakness in managing financial markets by the central bank and the government in China since the summer of 2015 has hurt investor confidence. The lack of stimulus plans as the Chinese government and planners work to cut debt in the economy, and the U.S. Fed's decision to gradually and slowly increase rates are twin factors for decline in financial markets, yet these very factors provide stability in the long run.
