Welcome to the age of the Profit Dollar

  • The article discusses the historical evolution of the dollar's role, moving from a gold-backed reserve currency to a fiat system, and its current 'profit dollar' iteration.
  • It highlights the shift from official reserve accumulation to private foreign investment funding US deficits, particularly influenced by capital controls in China and inflows from other developed economies.
  • The author suggests that the current dollar system is characterized by liquidity and unfettered capital accumulation, moving away from traditional notions of a reserve currency.
