Deep dives
Geopolitical turmoil and changing world order will impact the global economy
The speaker explains that the US-centric world order is over and we are now in a period of rivalry, conflict, and wars. This geopolitical turmoil will intensify over the next decade, leading to increased sanctions, protectionism, and nationalism. These factors will make it more challenging for businesses to operate globally, leading to higher prices and interest rates on a structural basis. The speaker predicts a recession in 2024, followed by a major low in equity markets. However, authorities will inject more money into the financial economy, leading to higher asset prices and potentially inflation rates above 10%. The speaker believes that a crisis in the late 2020s will necessitate fiscal measures such as tax increases and entitlement cuts.
