Fragmentation of Global Trade and Its Inflation Implications
Underlying the seemingly stable ratio of global trade to GDP lies a growing trend of fragmentation. Trade between US and China-centric blocs has outpaced trade within geopolitically aligned firms, and foreign direct investment reflects a similar pattern. This shift, alongside the emergence of connector countries like Vietnam and Mexico, rerouting supply chains globally, may elevate the cost of goods, potentially leading to higher inflation in the future.
