If you’ve been a long-time subscriber, you know that I’ve been warning about serious economic problems for quite some time.
Over the years, I’ve stressed that banks might not be as safe as they pretend to be, governments might not be as solvent as they let on, mounting debt might someday create massive defaults, stocks and other asset classes with nosebleed valuations were long due for a correction, etc.
So, as soon as COVID-19 cases first emerged in China in early 2020, I thought that this virus might cause some dislocations that I’ve been writing about. And then I started thinking about implications for the global economy.
