The Most DANGEROUS Mix I’ve Seen: Debt, Dollar & U.S. China Rivalry | Richard Haass
Former CFR president Richard Haass warns that the old comfort is gone. We cover $37T U.S. debt (~125% GDP), a secular drift away from a dollar-centric world, tariff-driven inflation, and the U.S.–China rivalry that won’t “decouple.” Can AI-boosted productivity buy time, or do markets have more downside than upside from here?
