#318 Is America’s golden era over?
Q: What is the current U.S. negotiating strategy regarding China?
The U.S. may be trying to force China to the negotiating table by escalating tariffs, viewing their main weakness as time, given China's political structure.
#318 Is America’s golden era over?
Q: Can you clarify your forecast regarding recession probabilities?
The central scenario still suggests that a statistical recession for the US economy will likely be avoided, although there might be scenarios where economic downturns become more damaging.
#318 Is America’s golden era over?
Q: How does the current economic trend and potential tariffs affect consumers in the US?
The issue with tariffs is that they act as a sort of sales tax on imported goods, primarily affecting consumers who may end up paying more and having less to spend overall.
#315 Liberation Day
Q: Do you think a recession is on the cards?
Personally, I'm not there yet, but if we're wrong, there could be a statistical recession or worse.
