Summary:Examines debate surrounding cause of U.S. trade deficit. Discusses the conventional economic view, which attributes the cause of the current U.S. account deficit to low U.S. national saving rate, and the "global savings glut" view, which regards increased global savings and decreased investment demand as cause for U.S. trade deficit. Analyzes arguments and offers a model through which to acknowledge both views.
