Sceptical

Discussion of 4% spans inflation, growth, market stress, yields and ownership stakes. Wolf Richter advocated 3–5% inflation rather than a 2% target as a way to manage federal debt 6, while David Rosenberg argued that 3% inflation may be a better economic and labour-market sweet spot and said core-ex-shelter inflation is 2% 1. Other references treated 4% as a market-growth warning, a bond-market return hurdle, a mortgage-rate context, or a corporate stake 2791014.

Stories it travels in

i

The stories

  • ○ a voice, on the left
  • ◌ a voice raising half of these
  • ● a subject, on the right, under its story
  • ⌒ a line is a voice raising a subject — thicker, more items; colour is the story

The stories this entity travels in: on the right, each story with the subjects seen alongside it; on the left, the voices that raised them, and a line for every subject a voice raised, bundled by story. Tap a voice to light everything it raises, a subject for who raised it, a story for its own lines. The crumb goes back.
