Topic: Now What? Economic Scenarios for 2022 and 2023
It seems that every day brings new warnings but at the same time there are indicators that show that conditions are not as dire as many assert. What is really going on? What is really triggering inflation and when will it trend back down? Is there really a recession threat?
