The Covid-19 pandemic will have profound implications for the global financial system.
Drawing on insights from our 2020 #IGWT report, this 20 tweet thread (created by @TheAustrian3) looks back at our past predictions and offers thoughts on what to expect for the decade ahead.👇
1/ At the start of the Covid-19 outbreak, remarkable things were already happening in the global economy.
The US Treasury yield curve had inverted.
A $12tn market for negative yielding government bonds had emerged, meaning governments were being paid to borrow.
2/ The attempt at monetary normalization by the Federal Reserve between 2017 and 2019 had to be reversed, as we predicted it would in our 2017 #IGWT report.
The Fed cut interest rates three times in the second half of 2019 and resumed quantitative easing.
