China launched two days of military drills surrounding Taiwan on Thursday in what it called a \u201cstrong punishment\u201d to its opponents on the self-governing island, after Taiwan\u2019s new president pledged to defend its sovereignty.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Caldara and Iacoviello monthly GPR index for Taiwan (thru April):<\/p>\n

The presidential election was in January. May estimate not included.<\/p>\n

Blackrock has its own index, but last publication was a month ago.<\/p>\n

Assessment of market impacts of higher risk:<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, in the absence of high frequency GPRs (as we have for the world, from Caldara and Iacoviello), we\u2019ll have to wait until next month to find out the impact on measured risk.<\/p>\n

As discussed in this post<\/a>, a blockade is much more likely than an outright invasion (at least in the near future), while still achieving the objective of wreaking tremendous economic damage.<\/p>\n
