How does globalization affect the U.S. economy?
Globalization and the U.S.
• The U.S. is a highly open economy
• Strong trade links with other countries
• Open financial (capital) markets
– Bonds
– Equities
– Property
• We have a fairly open labor market – tolerant of inflows of workers from overseas
• Globalization creates opportunities and threats
• The key is to be internationally competitive
Opportunities for the U.S.
• Cheaper imports from emerging market countries
– Keeps down inflation and interest rates
– Boosts consumer welfare
• Potential for increasing export sales
– Which markets are we best at?
• Opportunities for overseas investment
– Mergers and takeovers
– Direct investment (e.g. new factories overseas; out-sourcing)
• Opportunities arising from migration of labor
• Opportunities of rapid technological change
