Episode notes

There is something called global macro, which is every morning now and today people read summaries of the news that happened in currency markets. The Federal Reserve is kind of having to pivot from a tightening cycle to an easing cycle because of the economy slowing rapidly. There's been a lot of momentum this year in de-dollarization, which if that were to occur if the US was not the reserve currency of the world that commodities, especially oil or priced in, would have massive implications for our economy.

Recorded April 4, 2023

Description

In this Frankly, Nate shares his early Wall Street experience of ‘squawkboxes’ summarizing the daily financial Global Macro events and compares it to present day, where we find ourselves faced with the real Global Macro news - the systemic nexus of economic, environmental, and geopolitical risks and realities. From sea surface temperatures at all-time recorded highs, to the threat of nuclear war, to failing nation-states - how does a single person make sense of and cope with a 24 hour news flow reporting our increasingly chaotic world? Our cultural challenges are now far greater than stock markets and currency movements. We need people paying attention, understanding, and engaging with the ‘real’ Global Macro.
