Episode 1: PMIs, Elections, Summits, and "X"
This week, Neil and Christian discuss Germany's slowdown, Argentina's presidential election, the new "X" Twitter, the BRICS summit, and America's 2024 rematch.
Trend Watch is designed to help savvy investors and business leaders uncover hidden trends and critical developments driving world markets and economies. It’s like peering into the future. Discover the likely winners (and losers) of “big ideas” as renowned demographer Neil Howe – the guy who coined the term “Millennial” – makes sense of the week's economic developments and news events. New episodes weekly.
We’re excited to release the first episode of the reborn podcast, now called Trend Watch and available exclusively on Substack. The last time we recorded a podcast episode was in 2021—and needless to say, a lot has changed since then. Thanks for listening, and let us know what you think.
Episode 1: PMIs, Elections, Summits, and "X"
Neil just want to point out that world reserve currencies always change with time with fluctuations in their strength. I’ve read into the history somewhat but would curious if you did a take on the history of world reserve currencies. I think the USD is closer to the end than the beginning and BRICs is a result of that regardless if they actually succeed later rather than sooner. Maybe they fail completely and another country or collection of countries release something else or agree to trade with another medium. Remember our debt is out of control with high rates and sanctions make other countries afraid of the USD waves it can make
Luke Gromen would be a stellar interview on BRICS and debt issues of the USA
