Those crediting the visionary leadership of the past for the success of #MissionShakti must also answer -
Why India’s manufacturing is at just 18% of the GDP
Why we have a huge Current Account Deficit
Why we still have to buy our defense equipment’s from overseas markets.
Why it took us so long to produce even an entry-level fighter aircraft?
Why is there persistent poverty in so many regions in India?
Why are our cities still broken?
Why are our farms in such bad shape
Why is our education broken?
Why is our Judiciary broken?
Why are our great rivers dying?
Why are our villages in wretched misery?
Why are Indian brands missing from white goods shops and stores?
Why is medical care in India deficient?
Why is the banking system riddled with bad debts?
Why is malnourishment still commonplace in India?
Why has corruption seeped deep into our society?
Why are our temples, cultural and natural heritage is such a state of neglect?

Foreign demand for U.S. Treasuries fell off in the fourth quarter of 2018.

Total foreign purchases for the year are about a quarter point of GDP.

The U.S. external deficit isn't being funded by inflows into Treasuries. So how is it being funded (1/x)
The source of the fall off in demand for Treasuries in q4 2018?

"Official" investors, e.g. foreign central banks

(2/x)
Foreign demand for Treasuries has historically largely come from official investors abroad (reserve managers) not private investors, and with EM reserves under pressure, the fall off in official demand isn't really a surprise (also payback for a strong q3)

#MissionShakti - India's anti-satellite missile test - where we identify the satellite used during the test as well as address the multi-national meeting going on in Geneva on Militarization of Space & India's pre-emptive test to thwart any possible bans.

Was #MissionShakti a defiant preemptive strike to thwart any attempts to ban testing of space-conflict weaponry that may result from ongoing 25 nations meet in Geneva on Militarisation of Space to be concluded today in the backdrop of India's #ASAT test?
greatgameindia.com/mission-shakti…
In the case of #MissionShakti, because of the low altitude of less than 300 km of the target satellite #MICROSATR, the debris threat will be limited. While space debris has become a bone of contention at the Geneva meet, we present here the actual figires.

1/13) PMLN leaders specially Ahsan Iqbal keep on throwing GDP growth figures so a thread on why import financed consumption led growth was not sustainable and a comparison with Bangladesh’s domestic productivity, exports and investment led growth which is what PTI govt wants.
2/13)The real effective exchange rate(REER)is avg of a country’s exchange rate compared to major currencies. It’s base value is 100, above 100 means exchange rate is overvalued so expensive exports & cheaper imports,less than 100 means undervalued & opposite for exports, imports.
3/13) In 2013, Exports of Pakistan were $25B while Imports were $45B. From June 2013 to June 2017, REER increased from 104 to a max 127. In this period exports decreased by $5B.
From July 2017 to June 2018 exports grew by 13% or $3B when REER decreased from 125 to 111 in 1 year.

The economy has slowed down, the Rupee has been devalued, interest rates have gone up and there has been some increase in the rate of inflation. Why has this happened? And what prospects does the economy hold in 2019? @Hammad_Azhar answers these questions thenews.com.pk/print/413356-t…
Pakistan’s economy is recovering from what can be best described as a ‘consumption led’ growth period that was financed by short term debt instruments and a stifling of investment climate. Consumption as % of GDP went up from the worrying figure of 91.8% in FY14 to 94.5% in 2018.
Correspondingly, total gross investment (that includes government investment also) in Pakistan was reported at just 16.4% of GDP in FY18 whereas India’s figure stands at close to 30% and Bangladesh is at 31% of GDP.
