On My Mind: The Dr. Strangelove economy
Well, we’ve made it through one very interesting year: Changes in US tariff policy have upended long-standing global trade norms; fears of stagflation (combined economic stagnation and elevated inflation) have lingered but so far failed to materialize; the longest government shutdown on record has left us without key economic data; and excitement about generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) has spurred financial markets’ enthusiasm to new heights and raised both utopian and dystopian expectations.
