Jan von Gerich: Global: Unforgiving worldNordea
Market turbulence has increased to the extent that is starting to resemble the crisis days in 2008-2009. The ability of central banks to respond to a weakening outlook, to meet their inflation targets and keep risk appetite alive is increasingly being questioned. While many of the worries are warranted, fears of a global recession or another financial crisis are overblown. Central banks have not run of ammunition yet.
