- Consumers, firms and the financial markets expect elevated inflation over the next year or so but not over the longer term.
- The UK and US will continue to see monetary tightening to reduce inflation overheating while the path of the Euro Area is still uncertain.
- As globalization is mildly in reverse, there’s a rise in bringing production back, the trend of ‘reshoring’ and ‘nearshoring’.
- Despite some recent moves in the bond markets, Krugman’s view is the structural forces that historically kept bond yields low are still in place.
