Gm nostriches, 1 minus 1 day and counting to the moment the best thing Ms Reeves could actually do is nothing, because that would provide some certainty, but instead she’s both doubling down while also trying to undo what effects of what the last budget did. These are the scramblings of a failed nation attempting to get some market confidence back. Fascinating stuff, where I begin to (think I) understand some of the market, so much so while making revisions to my book, in addition to general borrowing costs going up in a recession, how the bond market reacts (look ma, I do bond math now 🤪) The science of muddling through, by Lindbolm (1957) is also fascinating, but one would hope those in charge were quite so obviously feeling their way in the dark. Oh and finally after buying the dip, then buying the next dip, so of back to where I started……. But people saying it could go lower, but let’s reframe that, the value of Your dollar could rise, so get ready to $pend it!!!!!!!!! image
How to start my meeting with my fiat mine department head? Current favourite starter for 10; How honest would you like me to be? I like doing research, I don’t find much value in teaching shit I don’t agree with to students who couldn’t care less. I’m not part of the uni pension scheme, you fiat has now power with me. I have zero ambition to work towards your pointless fiat goals to gain a promotion, I will never include how my work is promoting the school’s DEI aims, they literally work against me. I’ve made a vow to Lord Nakamoto on high that I can only learn about bitcoin, so all the other bollocks you want me to teach will just be read off the slides (as some of my colleagues actually do) I’ve run the numbers and I don’t need my fiat wage, so how are you going to convince me to stay? GFY?!?!?!?
